Many people have the misconception that Hand Therapy means Hand Massage. Sorry to burst your bubble guys, but Hand Therapists, Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists do not function the same as a Massage Therapists. Our qualifications, scopes of practice and skill sets are very different. Although we use massage as a part of our tool in the treatment whenever it is required, we are not confined to massage per se. Massage falls within the encompassing term of Manual Therapy. Yet again, Manual Therapy is not just massage.
In this fifth offering of More Than Just A Hand, Clinical Development Coordinator of the Hand to Shoulder Center of Wisconsin, in Appleton, Wisconsin, USA , Ann Porretto-Loerkhe explains what Manual Therapy is and what to expect when you see a Hand Therapist.
