Orthosis Fabrication with Debbie Schwartz | EP:16 Hands Therapy Secrets

The Splinting Guru demonstrates some fabrication techniques with Orfit thermoplastic materials. We discuss why splinting is such an integral part of being a hand therapist and it's a skill that needs time, practice, and really a desire to advance.

This is why I have created Orthosis 101 – a program that you get to keep, materials so that you can practice, and learn step-by-step instructions to create 2 major orthoses. Once you build the foundation – you can build anything you need. This program not only includes videos, ceu's, but you get a package of materials for you to practice over and over again :)
