About Smyrna Hand Therapy LLC

Smyrna Hand Therapy is an occupational therapy practice focused on rehabilitation for the hand and upper extremity. The clinic describes its care as individualized and hands-on, with treatment plans shaped around each patient’s needs and recovery goals. Its services address injuries and conditions involving the hand, wrist, forearm, elbow, and shoulder, and the site notes that care may be provided for both surgical and non-surgical cases. The practice also states that it works with chronic upper extremity issues such as arthritis, stroke, and other neurological conditions. In addition to adult hand rehabilitation, the clinic offers pediatric hand therapy and says it works with parents and physicians to support treatment for children in an engaging environment.

The clinic is led by Claire West, who the website says has practiced occupational therapy for almost 20 years. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Communication Processes and Disorders from the University of Florida and a Master of Occupational Therapy from Nova Southeastern University. Her background includes work with Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, Resurgens Orthopaedics, and Pinnacle Orthopaedics. The site lists her certifications as Certified Hand Therapist and Graston Techniques Specialist. Services described on the website include manual therapy, custom fabricated orthotics, Graston Technique, therapeutic exercise, neuromuscular re-education, wound care, and self-care training. The practice explains that it aims to help people regain function for meaningful daily activities, and its FAQ notes that treatment may also include scar and edema management, pain management, joint protection, energy conservation, and workplace ergonomics. Scheduling is available by phone, email, or through the patient portal, and the clinic says it will file insurance claims as a courtesy to patients.
