Practice Makes Perfect🌟
This kinesio taping technique is used significantly ⬇️ wrist pain while weight-bearing. KT tape is used to boost the pisiform.
📍 Note: the pisiform is the only sesamoid carpal bone in the wrist allowing it to move freely. Boosting (or decreasing a subluxation) the pisiform helps to align the wrist and ⬇️ pain. 😊👍🏻 #kttape #practice #pain #pisiform #novahandtherapy

Fabricated a splint over the weekend to support the fracture until the cast was put in place today.👍🏻🤸‍♂️😊 #tumbling #onetoughcookie #customsplint #feelbetter #novahandtherapy

Monday Mirror Box Therapy!
Nerve laceration patient has injured hand in the box and is watching the reflection of healthy hand as both attempt to perform the same movements. Method is used to fool the brain into allowing the injured hand to move similarly as the healthy hand.
Although oftentimes used in therapy to reprogram the brain to label a pain signal as nonpainful, in this instance we are using the mirror box to encourage movement due to a lack of sensation.🪞🖐😊 #mirrorbox #reflection #sensation #novahandtherapy
