Custom Splinting and Taping

Static and dynamic custom splint fabrication as well as prefabricated splints may be recommended to reduce pain and inflammation, to improve range of motion, and to maximize function.  Our Occupational Therapists are trained in fitting of custom thermoplastic and pre-fabricated splints. Joint alignment with maximum function is emphasized while immobilizing particular joints to assist in tendon, bone, or joint healing.

Taping is used for improving postural alignment of joints, to provide neuromuscular feedback for avoidance of end range positioning, or for improvement of lymphatic drainage for a variety of conditions.  Examples of taping indications include ankle stabilization, plantar fasciitis, shoulder rotator cuff impingment, or forearm tendonitis.
