Michelle uses hands-on techniques from the hand through to the shoulder to address joint stiffness, muscle tightness and soft tissue restrictions. These treatments help improve mobility, reduce discomfort and support recovery as part of a personalised upper limb rehabilitation programme.

Custom Orthosis Fabrication & Splinting

Michelle provides custom splinting for the hand, wrist and forearm up to the elbow. Designed to support healing, reduce pain and improve function. Each orthosis is individually designed, fabricated and adjusted to meet your specific condition and daily activity needs.

By combining advanced Hand Therapy principles with precise orthosis design, Michelle ensures splints promote recovery while allowing safe movement and long-term improvement.
