Tom Price Hand Clinic

~ Goodby Tom Price! ~

It's with a heavy heart that I share that Tom Price Hand Clinic will be closing. My family and I have just finished our 6 month trip around Australia (which was wonderful!), during which time we were presented with a work opportunity back in Perth. This means we will be moving onto a new chapter.

Owning a hand therapy practice in Tom Price has been a career highlight of mine. It's been a pleasure to serve the wonderful community and I feel so lucky for the opportunity.

Tom Price will always have a very special place in my heart 🧡

Much love,

Kass x

~ Carpal Tunnel Syndrome ~

❓What is CTS❓
The median nerve becomes constricted within the carpal tunnel space. This can cause:

👐 Numbness and/or tingling in the index finger, middle finger ring finger and thumb.
👐 A feeling of weakness in the affected hand.
👐 Functional deficits such as difficulty gripping and completing fine motor tasks.
👐 Pain in the volar (front) of the wrist, base of the thumb, and digits (except the pinky finger!).

☎ If you experience these symptoms, reach out to us at Tom Price Hand Clinic! You don't need a referral to see us 😀

~ TENNIS ELBOW ~

💪 Despite its name, most people who get tennis elbow don't play tennis 🎾
💪 The clinical name is Lateral Epicondylalgia or Lateral Epicondylitis
💪 A structure known as the common extensor tendon becomes inflamed, and can sometimes have small tears.
💪 A person with this condition experiences pain, burning or an ache along the outside of the forearm, elbow, and sometimes into the wrist.
💪 Symptoms are exacerbated with certain movements such as gripping and rotating the wrist against resistance. Gripping things, particularly with the palm facing down, is usually painful.
💪 A hand therapist will be able to assess the injury and let you know if your symptoms fit with the signs and symptoms of this condition.
💪 Your hand therapist can then develop a treatment plan just for you!

☎ If you have tennis elbow or if you have elbow pain, reach out! You can message, call or email 😃

~ MEET KASS ~

Hi! 👋 I'm an Occupational Therapist and the new owner of Tom Price Hand Clinic! It's time to properly introduce myself 😀

🧡 I've had the pleasure of helping the Tom Price community with their hand injuries for the past 8 months.
🧡 Working in Tom Price has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career to date. Living remotely has its challenges, one being the lack of healthcare resources. I'm proud to be able to save patients from frequent trips to Perth to have their hand injuries managed. It's honestly been so wonderful to provide a needed service to the community.

A little about me:
⭐ My family and I moved to Tom Price about 18 months ago and we love it!
⭐ I've worked in different fields of OT such as oncology, orthopaedics and ergonomics - but I have the most experience in Hand Therapy 💪👍
⭐ I've worked as an OT in hospitals in London and Perth and in private practice.
⭐️ My favourite thing to do at the moment is pushing my one-year-old daughter on the swing 👧

😃 Never heard of hand therapy before? Not sure if a hand OT can help you? No worries! If you'd like to book in or ask a question, give me a call, email or send a DM. I'd love to hear from you! 🥰

☎️ 📧 If you'd like to support me, please like, share and follow the page! And stay tuned, I've got lots of great posts coming up 🥳

Hand therapists treat injuries and conditions of the upper extremity - that includes the shoulder, arm, elbow, forearm, wrist and hand! Below are just a few of the injuries that we often see in the clinic.

~ HAPPY NEW YEAR! ~
I'm looking forward to continuing to provide hand therapy services to the Tom Price community and surrounds in 2024 👍🫶💪 Happy New Year everyone! ❤
