Gold Coast Hand Therapy

Gold Coast Hand Therapy We are a team of Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists who specialise in hand injuries

We are a team of Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists who specialise in treating finger, thumb, hand, wrist, elbow and shoulder injuries and conditions. As Hand Therapy Specialists on the Gold Coast, we are highly experienced at assessing injuries, fabrication of custom-made thermoplastic splints or orthoses (an alternative to fibreglass casting), providing conservative treatments for inju

ries and conditions, as well as post-surgery and wound care. We work closely with many Hand and Orthopaedic Surgeons, hospitals including Gold Coast Private Hospital and Pindara, as well as a wide network of GPs. We treat patients that are privately funded or those under WorkCover, DVA, NDIS or other independent insurers. All our therapists are members of the the Australian Hand Therapy Association (AHTA). An Accredited Hand Therapist has been recognised by the Australian Hand Therapy Association (AHTA) after years of clinical experience and further study after university. We have five clinics across the Gold Coast and Northern NSW:

ANZAC Day reminds us of resilience.

In healthcare we see resilience every day; in people working through injury, rebuilding strength, and supporting each other through recovery. 🌸

Today we pause to remember the resilience and sacrifice of those who served.

Not all heroes wear capes... some wear custom thermoplastic splints! 🦸‍♀️💪

Our skilled therapists on the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers are crafting superhero-worthy splints to help you recover and get back to saving the day (or just getting back to what you love!).

Every splint is custom-made with care, because your recovery deserves superpowers.

We’re incredibly proud to be supporting Emma, the daughter of our wonderful team member Taryn, as she takes on the Pedal for Pink ride for the National Breast Cancer Foundation!

Taryn has spent over 20 years as an accredited hand therapist, helping people in our community every day, and now her family is coming together to support an important cause close to their hearts.

Emma and her mum are cycling 112km from the Gold Coast to Byron Bay to help raise funds for breast cancer research, an amazing effort for such a vital cause.

We’ll be cheering you on every kilometre, Emma 💪💗

Our Biggera crew got their hearts pumping bright and early for First Aid & CPR training a couple of weeks back.

Special mention to Ash for her selection of images 🤣

We’re glad everyone had a good time staying alive whilst practicing live-saving techniques on what appears to be a Squid Game dummy?

Celebrating an incredible milestone 👏

Across more than a decade in hand and upper limb rehabilitation, Jodie has contributed to supporting patients through a wide range of conditions, with a consistent focus on evidence-based care and thoughtful treatment planning.

Her experience plays an important role in delivering continuity of care and supporting both patients and referrers across the Gold Coast community.

Our hands are full... with fun 🎉 The GC Hand Therapy family came together for our teams first Family Fun Day last weekend✨

It was a day of laughter, games, and quality time away from the clinic.

While we're passionate about hand therapy, we're equally passionate about the people who make it all happen - and the families who support them behind the scenes.

Here's to the team that makes every day brighter, both in and out of the clinic! 🙌
