Occupational Therapy in New York City for Hand, Wrist, Elbow & Shoulder Injuries
At Theradynamics Physical & Occupational Therapy, we specialize in helping individuals regain independence, mobility, and function through advanced, personalized occupational therapy. With locations throughout New York City, the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Long Island, our expert occupational therapists treat hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder injuries, as well as conditions affecting your ability to perform Activities of Daily Living (ADLs)—like dressing, bathing, cooking, and working.
Whether you’re recovering from a fracture, repetitive strain, neurological condition, or post-surgical procedure, our evidence-based approach sets us apart.
What Makes Our Occupational Therapy Unique?
1. Isokinetic Extremity Evaluation Technology
We lead the field in comprehensive upper extremity assessments. Our occupational therapists utilize Isokinetic Testing, allowing for objective measurement of:
- Wrist supination/pronation
- Flexion/extension
- Shoulder internal/external rotation
- PNF 1 & PNF 2 patterns
This cutting-edge technology allows us to customize your treatment plan based on data-driven metrics, enhancing outcomes and tracking your progress over time.
2. Interactive Metronome® (IM) Therapy
Endorsed by the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA), the Interactive Metronome is a powerful tool we use to improve cognitive-motor timing. It has been shown to support recovery in conditions like:
- Stroke
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- ADHD
- Parkinson’s disease
- Multiple sclerosis (MS)
This rhythmic, brain-based therapy sharpens focus, balance, and coordination.
3. Senaptec Sensory Performance Station
We also integrate the Senaptec System, which trains and measures sensory-motor function—particularly useful for patients with:
- Neurological conditions
- Vestibular dysfunction
- Post-concussion syndrome
- Parkinson’s & MS
This approach bridges traditional rehab with sports-performance style recovery to enhance visual, cognitive, and reaction-time functions.
