Waving, shaking, eating, driving, typing, touching, pointing, grasping, petting, tickling…it’s amazing how much we do with our hands and how much we take them for granted. Until something goes wrong. When that happens, it’s time pick up the phone (again with the hands!) and call CORA.
CORA’s Certified Hand Therapists (CHT) are either physical or occupational therapists with more than three years of experience and more than 4,000 hours in the practice of upper extremity rehabilitation—hand, wrist, elbow and shoulder girdle. All of our CHTs pass a national certification exam covering advanced techniques and theories on hand and upper-extremity injuries. And all are required to recertify their credentials every five years.
