Physical and occupational therapists support the surgeons of the Brachial Plexus Clinic at St. Louis Children's Hospital. Working together to evaluate and treat each child during initial and follow-up clinic visits, therapists provide detailed, age-specific home programs for each child.
Our therapists are trained in splinting, taping, and other specialized modalities and frequently serve as a resource for other therapists in the region.
If surgery is warranted, our physical and occupational therapists have a working knowledge of pre-and post-surgical protocols in order to provide guidance to families and primary therapists during the recovery process.
