Hands on Training for Upper Limb Rehabilitation

Upper limb amputation profoundly affects daily activities, from personal care to professional tasks. Our hands-on training program empowers patients to master prosthetic devices, regain fine motor skills, and achieve independence in everyday life. Training starts post-surgery and evolves with prosthetic fitting.

Factors Influencing Training Success

  • Amputation level and type (wrist, elbow, shoulder)
  • Pre-existing hand dominance and skills
  • Patient's motivation and cognitive ability
  • Support from family and occupational therapists

Emphasis is placed on practical, task-oriented training to enhance functional independence.
