Thermoplastic Splints Can Melt!

Thermoplastic is heated in hot water to create a flexible material for moulding custom splints, it then sets hard to support your hand or finger.

This makes it a great material to get the perfect fit and customisation for splinting as well as remoulding as your recovery progresses. But if left in the sun or a hot car the heat can melt the plastic and deform your splint. The melting temperature of thermoplastic is 70 degrees, the inside of a car, especially in direct sunlight, will exceed this.

It is important then you care for your splint when not wearing it to prolong its life. Deformed splint will need to be remoulded for correct fitting and splinting for your injury or condition. If serve cases the splint may even need to be completly remade.

If you splint does become deformed, please contact the clinic as soon as possible to organise an appointment for the splint to be remoulded.

2nd Opinion Appointments Available 🔎

Having treatment on a hand or wrist injury and don’t feel like you’re getting anywhere? Geelong Hand Therapy is now offering a second opinion service, where you can meet with one of our senior therapists for a 30min assessment and recommendation appointment at no cost! These appointments are designed to complete a thorough assessment and inform you of a recommended treatment plan, which can then be followed through with our team if required. These appointments are available in both our Geelong or Torquay locations.

If you’ve been receiving treatment and are looking for some reassurance or have a niggling injury that won’t seem to settle down, give the clinic a call on 5221 7171 to let them know you’re after a second opinion and discuss this option.

Wrist range of motion exercises are movements and stretches that bend and straighten the joints of the fingers, thumb, and wrist. These exercises help improve mobility, reduce stiffness and swelling, and support the full range of movements needed for everyday activities.

Below are some basic exercises to help with your range of motion in your fingers & wrists. If you have an injury please discuss specific exercises with your hand therapist. If you feel pain, you should stop the exercises and book an appointment to discuss further.
