• Improve alignment and hand function
• Support conditions like arthritis, joint hypermobility, and tendon injuries

🌟 Why Patients Love Them

Did you know we offer a number of therapy aids at Geelong Hand Therapy?

Pen Again Ergo Pens are designed to allow your hand to take a natural shape while writing & require less pressure. The shape of the pen allows the user to need less grip strength as the weight of your hand provides the downward pressure. They are even universal for both left & right handers.

These pens are great for those with reduced grip strength, hand pain or doing lots of writing. They come with 2 ink refills and are made with a soft rubber exterior for additional comfort.

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.
