We’ll help you find a way!

Finger injuries can leave you without the motion/strength needed for your hobbies or daily tasks. We do our best to help you get it back, but sometimes that isn’t possible. This client wanted to take up playing the violin but didn’t have enough motion/strength at the tip of her finger. We made this splint to make it possible again ❤️ 🖐️ 🎻

Happy hand therapy week! Poor positioning after a fracture or surgery can have lifelong effects. Unfortunately, we see this a lot. A cast that was at the wrong angle, prefab orthotics that didn’t fit correctly, or just the wrong splint altogether! When clients come to Ability after surgeries or fractures, we make custom orthotics that place them in positions that will help them regain their motion later. Each joint is intentionally positioned to allow for healing while minimizing unnecessary tightness!

Amazing field…amazing people!  👏✌️👐

Musicians put in LONG hours of training and performing which can cause hand and UE pain and injury. Laura teamed up with Michelle King, a musician at RU, to teach the OT students about proper body mechanics and injury prevention.
Let us know if you are a musician in need of help with pain or conditions like thoracic outlet syndrome, cubital tunnel syndrome, or carpal tunnel syndrome. We can help you get to the root cause of your pain so you can perform at your best!

Ability

At Ability, we are passionate about providing the highest level of care to our clients. Our top priority is helping you achieve the best possible outcomes so that you are able to return to the activities that are most important to you. When you have a broken bone, a ruptured tendon, or pain in one of your arms, it can be very difficult to do things like work, play, sleep, cook, or drive. Under the care of a highly skilled occupational therapist, these activities can become possible again!

Laura is the owner and occupational therapist at Ability. She is an occupational therapist with 15 years of clinical experience and a faculty member in the Department of Occupational Therapy at Radford University. Laura has a Masters of Occupational Science from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.
