The Hand Institute is now closed. I wish to thank all of my patients for the many years of providing therapy for so many. I have met so many wonderful people over the past 42 years of being a therapist and appreciate the opportunity to have met you all.

We are leaving our PO box, email address and phone active for another few months for medical records requests. Best wishes to you all.

Services: Elbow

Elbow tendonopathy, or lateral epicondylitis, more commonly known as tennis elbow is pain at the outside of the elbow and can involve the extensor muscles or those on the back of the upper forearm. Medial epicondylitis, or golfers elbow is pain in the inside aspect of the elbow. These are common conditions, which can be effectively treated with therapy.

Modalities such as heat, ice, ultrasound, laser, and electric stimulation are effective ways to help manage pain and are often part of the treatment program.

Addressing tissue shortening and inflammation with manual therapy and myofascial work to tissue is effective in providing lasting relief of pain and help restore strength. At The Institute for Hand and Upper Extremity Rehabilitation , we incorporate patient education and complete an ergonomic assessment of activities at work and home as a necessary part of successful, long term rehabilitation.
