✊ Stiff Fingers after Injury ☝

Here's a couple of examples of how we've helped our clients to regain movement in a stiff finger joint after an injury. Removable splints are a simple yet effective method to improve flexibility. By providing gentle, sustained pressure, custom-made splints or elasticised straps can help restore the normal bending and straightening of your finger.

Whether you're experiencing difficulty bending the joint or inability to straighten it fully (or in this case both), consistent use of a well-fitting splint under the guidance of an Accredited Hand Therapist 👩🏻‍⚕️ can help to reduce stiffness over time.

📅 Book a session today on 1300 791 870 or at https://evergreenhandtherapy.com.au to get back to the life you love – pain free!

🖐️ Hand & Wrist Strengthening! 💪
Stronger hands start here! 💥

We love using the FlexBar like a big crayon to drag through the hard putty - it's one of our favourites to promote both grip strength and wrist stabilisation, working the whole upper arm!

Using therapy putty for finger resistance and the FlexBar for wrist & forearm control helps rebuild strength, improve grip, and reduce pain — whether you're recovering from injury or just looking to level up.

Come and see us today for help with your hand or wrist issues.

👉 Small tools. Big results.

✍️ Struggling with Handwriting? Hand Therapy Can Help! 💪
Whether it’s messy writing, hand fatigue, or trouble gripping a pencil — handwriting difficulties aren’t just about penmanship.

👉 Our Accredited Hand Therapist works with kids and adults to improve:
✔ Pencil grip
✔ Fine motor coordination
✔ Hand strength
✔ Writing endurance

🧠 Sometimes, handwriting issues stem from motor planning or muscle control issues — and that’s where specialised therapy makes a difference.

📅 Book a handwriting assessment today and let’s unlock confident writing, one letter at a time.
