Are you a frequent traveler within British Columbia struggling to maintain consistent hand therapy?

Or perhaps you live in a remote area of the province where access to specialized care is limited?

You’re not alone. Many individuals face the challenge of balancing their need for expert hand therapy with the demands of travel or the constraints of location.

But here’s the good news: telehealth solutions are revolutionizing the way we approach hand therapy, making it more accessible than ever before within BC.

The Challenge of Consistent Care

Imagine you’re in the middle of a crucial hand therapy program, making steady progress towards recovery.

Suddenly, a business trip or family emergency requires you to travel within BC for an extended period. The thought of interrupting your treatment can be frustrating and worrying.

You might ask yourself:

  • Will my progress be setback?
  • How can I maintain my therapy routine while away from home?
  • What if my condition worsens without regular sessions?

These concerns are valid, and they highlight a fundamental truth that everyone deserves access to quality healthcare, regardless of their location within BC or travel commitments.

Your Solution for Continuous Care

This is where telehealth solutions come into play. At Active Recovery, we believe that your hand therapy shouldn’t be limited by geography within British Columbia.

Our telehealth services are designed to bridge the gap between you and the expert care you need, no matter where you are in the province.

What is Telehealth Hand Therapy?

Telehealth hand therapy involves using digital communication technologies to provide hand therapy services remotely.

This can include:

  • Video consultations with a certified hand therapist
  • Guided exercise sessions via video call
  • Remote monitoring of your progress
  • Digital resources and exercise programs

With telehealth, you can continue your hand therapy journey without missing a beat, even when you’re miles away from our Victoria, BC clinic but still within the province.

The Benefits of Telehealth Hand Therapy

  1. Consistency in Care: Maintain your treatment schedule regardless of your location within BC.
  2. Flexibility: Schedule sessions at times that suit your travel or work commitments.
  3. Comfort: Receive expert care from the comfort of your home or hotel room.
  4. Cost-Effective: Save on travel costs associated with in-person visits.
  5. Access to Specialists: Connect with our expert hand therapists even if you’re in a remote area of BC.

Real Client Experiences

Our clients have found great success with our telehealth services. Here’s what one of them had to say:

“I am very happy with the online physio sessions I had with Nicole. I did some in person physio with regular physiotherapist but didn’t feel like I was getting anywhere. When I met with Nicole she was very thorough and took the time to review my xray and ultrasound results. She gave me very specific exercises to do and showed me how to do them during our video sessions. She then summarized our sessions and emailed me the exercises to print so that I didn’t have to remember everything we talked about. She also took measurements of my progress each session to show me the progress I was making each week which was very encouraging. Her specialized hand therapy training was definitely what I needed and I would highly recommend her. The telehealth option made it possible to get the expertise I needed wherever I had internet and my iPad! When I started I was sure that I would be needing another surgery but I ended up with good results and no surgery necessary. Thanks so much Nicole!”

Overcoming Common Concerns

You might be wondering, “Can telehealth really be as effective as in-person therapy?”

While some hands-on techniques may require in-person visits, many aspects of hand therapy translate well to a virtual format.

Our therapists are trained to guide you through exercises and assessments remotely, ensuring you get the most out of each session.

Pro Tips for Effective Telehealth Hand Therapy

  1. Hybrid Model for Extended Travel: If you’re planning a trip within BC that will last longer than 2-3 weeks, consider scheduling an in-person appointment before you leave. This allows us to discuss and build a Plan of Care (POC) for your time away, ensuring you have a solid foundation for your telehealth sessions.
  2. Continuous Care Options: For extended stays outside of BC, we can help connect you with another Certified Hand Therapist in your destination province. This ensures you have access to continuous care if needed, even when we can’t provide telehealth services outside of BC.
  3. Leverage Digital Resources: We use SimpleSet.app, a versatile exercise prescription tool. This platform provides you with detailed exercise instructions, complete with videos and pictures. You can access your personalized program online or download it as a PDF. The app also allows you to provide feedback, letting your physiotherapist know how you’re feeling and progressing.
