​Welcome to Taranaki Hand Therapy.

Taranaki Hand Therapy is a specialist Hand Therapy service based in New Plymouth, New Zealand.

We provide comprehensive assessment and treatment of all elbow, wrist and hand conditions

​At Taranaki Hand Therapy we treat both ACC and private patients . Whether you have pins and needles in your hand, have wrist/thumb pain after lifting your baby, have fallen and sprained your wrist or you have caught your finger playing netball or riding the surf, then we can help you recover.

It can be very easy to under-estimate the consequences of untreated hand injuries. Correct diagnosis and rehabilitation can result in quicker return to work or sport, prevent deformities and ongoing pain and loss of movement.
