Carpal Tunnel Syndrome - Course IV
Custom Splints for CTS - Step-by-Step Instructions

Thursday, September 18th, 2008

This is the fourth course in the series; however, due to several requests this course will not require prerequisites.

Course IV is a live demonstration provided by Laura Vielma, PT, CHT to provide step-by-step instructions for making two types of custom splints for the treatment of CTS.  In this course Laura discusses how to create the custom pattern, types of splints materials, techniques that make splint-making a little easier, and many other useful tips.

It is probably best to watch the video.  The paper version is a transcript of the video with added visual directions and an abundance of pictures taken directly from the video.

We want to thank Laura Vielma, PT, CHT, and Round Rock Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation for this course.
