Welcome to Cambie Physiotherapy and Health Clinic's patient resource about hand problems.

Hand AnatomyCan you imagine not being able to use your hands?  Can you imagine suffering an injury that leaves you with a decreased ability to take care of yourself and perform everyday tasks?  This is the position you will be left in if you don't take care of your hands.  When you injure one or both of your hands, you not only will be left out of your favorite sport, you will be left out of life.

No one wants to depend on others for help in completing simple tasks like cooking food, driving a car, or opening a door.  Therefore, this area of our site is designed to help you learn about and prevent a hand injury.

Whether you are an active athlete or like to sit on the sidelines, we want to make sure you stay safe and healthy and keep your hands protected from debilitating injuries that will bench the fun in your life.

“ Dr. T Kang began treating me for hand pain that I have not been able to shake for about 5 years. I was finding my ability to hold a pen would fluctuate from 20 seconds to 3 minutes before I could not hold it anymore. For years, I thought it was Arthritis or Carpel Tunnel. I've had it treated before at other Accupuncture clinics but not with much success. After just one visit at Cambie Physio, I was able to hold a pen for longer durations (like, 20 minutes easily!). I liked that he assessed both my hands, not just the one I write with, and treated both of them using a variety of therapies. On the first session, he treated me with Needling, Ultrasound therapy, TENS with heat and a little bit of Accupressure. I have had 4 sessions with him, spread out over 3 weeks because of how long I've carried the injury for. I am always surprised how much he can fit in and how I see progress quite quickly after each session. Also, he is super gentle with the Needles- I hate accupuncture and needles but he is so gentle that I don't even notice them go in!! Highly recommend Dr. Kang and this great facility and staff. ”

“ Satvir is an awesome physiotherapist who geniunely cares about her patients’ well-being. She treated me for a wrist injury over the span of 3 months and helped me achieve full recovery. Their schedules are well-planned so there’s rarely any wait time. I also appreciate their flexibility for last minute changes, instead of charging customers for being late or no-show. ”
