"Hand therapy"

About: Dorset County Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

A while ago I had to visit Hand therapy.

I can only say how efficient and helpful the team are.

I had previously seen them work with my son on a broken wrist and was impressed.

Now I was coming for acupuncture, something I thought I would never use.

It may not solve the problem but it has certainly meant that I can use my hand in a normal way, with their expertise.

The acupuncturist was able to pinpoint (!!haha) certain areas and improve the mobility and pain in the hand.

Always on time, always courteous, smiley face.

I tell everyone about them!

But the whole team are super.
