Frequently Asked Questions
Can physical therapy help with carpal tunnel and wrist pain?
Yes. We treat carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, arthritis, and post-fracture stiffness. Therapy reduces pain, restores strength, and improves hand function.
How long does recovery take for wrist or hand injuries?
Recovery usually takes 4–8 weeks, depending on severity and compliance with therapy. Many patients notice less pain and better mobility within the first few visits.
What if I’ve already tried PT for my wrist and it didn’t help?
At Spectrum Therapeutics, you are treated directly by Dr. Rob Letizia, Doctor of Physical Therapy. We use advanced manual therapy, nerve and tendon gliding techniques, and shockwave when appropriate. This individualized approach helps patients succeed even if they did not improve in standard clinic settings.
Do you treat post-surgical wrists and hands?
Yes. We regularly rehab patients after carpal tunnel release, tendon repairs, fractures, and joint replacements. Therapy restores range of motion, grip strength, and functional use of the hand.
