Wrist Fractures

Physiotherapy for Wrist Fractures

A wrist fracture often happens after a fall onto an outstretched hand, commonly breaking the radius bone near the thumb. Treatment depends on the type of fracture and may require surgery to stabilize the bones.

How Physiotherapy Can Help
Physiotherapy is essential for regaining wrist strength, flexibility, and function after a fracture. Our treatment programs, starting as early as two weeks post-surgery or casting, use techniques like sensory retraining, range-of-motion exercises, manual therapy, and guided exercises to promote recovery and long-term wrist health.
