OVERVIEW

ABOUT OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

It's rarely one big thing that brings people in. It's the pileup of little ones. The coffee mug that's hard to hold by mid-morning. Buttons that take three tries. A pen that just slips out. You're cutting vegetables and have to stop because your hand quits on you. It creeps in slowly. You work around it for a while, and then the working around is the whole day. Our occupational therapists look at what your life actually asks of your hands and arms. Where's it breaking down, and why. Then comes the rebuilding. Grip, coordination and staying power. Whatever went missing, so those little things stop being a battle. For some folks, that's bouncing back after a hand injury or surgery. For others, it's living with something that's not going away, and finding smarter ways to get the same stuff done. Every pair of hands is its own story.

BOOKING APPOINTMENTS

Hands and arms come back gradually. At our Peoria clinic, visits run over several weeks, so grip, coordination, and endurance return at a pace that sticks.

DIAGNOSE

EXAM & IMAGING

Therapists watch your hands work on real tasks, then find where the strength, motion, or coordination falls short. Keeps the plan tied to your life, not a template.

DJ at Modern Sports Medicine Physical Therapy and Orthopedics in Peoria, AZ is by far the best physical therapist I’ve worked with! He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and clearly knows what he’s doing. His hands-on manipulation and manual therapy is over the top! I came from another physical therapy practice, and the care there wasn’t even close to the level I’ve received here. I’m very happy I made the switch and met DJ. Highly recommend him and this clinic. He is the best!!

I had a bad knee injury due to a sidewalk fall resulting in some major swelling, cuts and bruises and a slightly impacted meniscus tear. After seeing my PCP and having x-rays, I was directed to Physical Therapy. I searched several facilities and landed at Modern PT. I worked directly with DJ Repp for about 8 weeks and have to say DJ & his team are amazing. They were personable, and highly pro in all that they did in guiding the process to recovery. They work "together" with you according to a pace that you're comfortable with, while providing just enough challenge to keep you forward focused. I recovered so well under their great care. I would highly recommended this particular office at 83rd Ave & Cactus! in Peoria.

What Are You Experiencing?

Pain is hard to put into words. You might not have a good sense of what kind of care you need, and that’s OK. What matters is how things are right now. Please fill out this short form to summarize how things are. We will then follow up and take you through what may be causing the pain, as well as what may work as a solution.

  LOW  HIGH  

SEVERE PAIN

If the pain is severe or more than you can manage, don’t wait. Call 911 or go straight to a hospital. Safety comes first. After that, we can help you find longer-term relief.

MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT

Sometimes, pain may not bring you to your knees, but it still disrupts your daily life. Perhaps it’s intermittent and stabbing, or maybe it’s just present during the day. Let’s get those details from you, and we’ll do our best to determine what’s causing it.

MINOR PAINS & ACHES

Little aches hurt just as badly. A sore shoulder, stiff knees, or a throbbing ache that shows itself every once in a while can still take its toll. Let us know how you’ve been doing, and we’ll take care of it for you before it grows into something bigger.

Answering Your Questions

My hand gets weak and clumsy by the afternoon. What's going on?
That fade through the day usually points to endurance or a nerve issue, not just plain weakness. The muscles tire too fast, or a nerve stops firing cleanly when you use it for a while.
Can occupational therapy help after carpal tunnel or a hand surgery?
Yeah, that's a big chunk of the work. After surgery or a nerve problem, hands lose strength, motion, and fine control. Therapy builds those back piece by piece. It also works on the scar tissue and stiffness that tend to settle in, so the hand can handle real tasks again.
Do you make custom splints or braces?
Often, yes. The right splint can rest a cranky joint, support something that's healing, or set the hand in a better position for a task. When one would help, the therapist fits it to your hand and what you actually do day to day.
I keep dropping things and fumbling small objects. Is that treatable?
Usually, yeah. Trouble with grip, pinch, and fine coordination can come from all kinds of things. Arthritis. A nerve issue. Weakness left over from an injury. Therapy goes after whatever's actually behind it, so the fumbling eases up instead of being something you just put up with.
How is this different from seeing a physical therapist?
They overlap, but the focus is different. Physical therapy leans toward bigger movement, strength, and getting around. Occupational therapy zeroes in on the hands, arms, and the specific daily tasks they handle. When both fit, they often run together.

MODERN PHYSICAL THERAPY & SPORTS MEDICINE
CEO

"When an athlete gets injured, a team of doctors and therapists evaluates them, orders imaging, and decides the best path forward. If surgery is needed, they go straight to surgery; if not, they get condition-specific physical therapy and targeted injections to speed healing. This is the same process pro athletes use to get back on the field quickly—and at Modern, you can access that same level of care for the same cost as any other physical therapy clinic."   - Josh Adams
