Our team are experienced in treating patients of all ages and across a broad range of industries and sporting groups.

Expert Care

Our Hand Therapy team are dedicated to the study and practice of Hand and Upper Limb (HUL) Rehabilitation. At a minimum, each Hand Therapist holds an Occupational Therapy or Physiotherapy university degree, is engaged in rigorous professional development specific to HUL Rehabilitation and is passionate about evidence-based practice. Each of our therapists is a member of the Australian Hand Therapy Association (AHTA). Our team is committed to ongoing education and regularly deliver teaching and training to visiting students and therapists in our clinic.

Continuous Quality Improvement

We strive to continuously improve our services and welcome any feedback you have throughout your time with us at Cairns Hand Clinic. We look forward to getting to know you and working with you to achieve your therapy goals.

Walk Ins & After Hours Care

Our Clinic is open Monday – Friday. Because we are frequently fully booked, we have a limited capacity to accommodate walk-in acute injuries. While we will always do our absolute best to look after you in a pressing situation, we cannot guarantee an immediate opening without a scheduled appointment.

Please also note that our clinic does not provide after-hours services. If you require urgent attention outside of our normal business hours, please contact your local After-Hours GP clinic or visit the nearest Emergency Department immediately.

Thank you for your understanding and for helping us maintain a safe, efficient environment for all of our patients.
