Proper splints and orthoses are essential to the rehabilitation process. That's why we offer a custom splints/orthoses service, designed to help you recover from hand injuries and conditions.
About this Treatment

Getting you back to a healthier you

Our skilled hand therapists work closely with your physician to create a personalized splint wearing protocol that meets your unique needs and goals. We use thermoplastic, a low-heat malleable plastic that contours to your body and hardens to provide support and protection.

Our hand therapists will ensure that your custom splints fit well and are comfortable to wear. We also make adjustments as necessary to accommodate changes in treatment protocols, swelling, and motion throughout your rehabilitation.

Why you would need splint therapy and orthoses:

  • Contractures, or stiff joints and muscles
  • Post-surgical or post-injury rehabilitation
  • Joint pain or instability
  • Nerve compression
  • Repetitive strain injuries
  • Arthritis
  • Fractures or dislocations
  • Muscle weakness or paralysis

Trusted health every step of the way

The therapy has been amazing…

I came to SOMA for a meniscus tear. The therapy has been amazing and I feel better after just a few weeks. I highly recommend SOMA to anyone.

I love Soma…

I love Soma. It’s so pleasant. Clean, Clean, Clean. The work they are doing on my left leg and side is phenomenal. I find it fun even through the pain of working out.

I’m happy to say I’m finally back to 100%…

The entire team here is incredibly helpful, friendly, thoughtful, and most importantly committed to your recovery. I came in to treat a shoulder injury I had been dealing with for a year that had been difficult to diagnose and which had not responded well to prior treatment. George worked with me to continuously adopt my treatment plan based on my stubborn shoulder with the ultimate goal of getting me back to all physical activities like sports and the gym I’ve been trying and failing to get back to at full strength. With George’s treatment and instruction I’m happy to say I’m finally back to 100%.

This really helped set my recovery to a great start…

ACL full recovery- I started with George a month before my ACL surgery and I was able to reach full range of motion right before surgery as suggested by my surgeon. This really helped set my recovery to a great start. ACL recovery is painful in the beginning but working along George made it easy to understand the different stages I was in and I saw improvement through every session. I had some set backs along the way like tendinitis but that was nothing George couldn’t help me get through. I’m now fully recovered and so thankful for George’s help.

Everybody there is warm and welcoming and extremely compassionate…

I was so lucky to find SOMA PT/OT after a terrible accident to my hand. Everybody there is warm and welcoming and extremely compassionate. The vibe in the whole place is relaxed yet dedicated to helping each individual and their needs. Specifically, my occupational therapist, Costa, has a natural ability to focus in and address the unique problem that requires help in the moment. I know I progressed for the better because of his expertise and desire to be beneficial. The second you walk in and meet Monina (a doll!) at the front desk, you know you’re in the best hands

George has worked wonders on knee…

I started coming to Soma in June of this year with a torn MCL. George has worked wonders on knee. Very mindful and considerate on how much to push forward without aggravating the injury. New exercises weekly to strengthen the knee and post surgery this has definitely helped. The other part which is great is that they’re super helpful on accommodating to your schedule and very helpful with dealing with the insurance companies. It’s an overall great experience I’m very happy that I found them.

Highly recommended Soma…

Highly Recommend Soma! I have been working with George to help recover from an IT band injury and his help has been life saving. George is a true professional and is extremely knowledgeable. He really takes the time to explain and educate his patients to ensure a smooth path to recovery. Absolutely love this place and have already referred several friends.

I’m so glad I picked SOMA…

I’m so glad I picked SOMA for my physical therapy following an ankle injury. George has been so helpful when it comes to helping me understand my injury, prescribing helpful exercises/stretches and encouraging me during my treatment journey! You can tell both George and Costa really care about everyone they treat. Highly recommend!
