Hands On Care is the real deal! If you’re willing to listen and work hard, they will make unbelievable changes in your ailment.
My story…. I crashed my Mountain Bike riding in Lake Tahoe in July 2017. I broke the ulna and radius in both arms, broke one thumb, damaged my brachial plexus, broke my T9 vertebrae and had a head injury. I spent nearly 3 weeks at a Reno Hospital for surgery, recovery and in-patient rehab. A Lake Tahoe therapist and a Reno therapist both recommended Hands On Care for continued therapy when I got home to San Jose in August.
The owner and head therapist Saba 1) pointed out a dangerous infection in my right arm during my first visit 2) connected me with a surgeon @ Stanford to immediately remove the infection and install titanium plates 3) Got me from a state of upper body immobility (someone had to feed me and wipe my Butt) to 85% mobility playing guitar with two bands/working/driving and carrying my 2 year old and 4 year old kids again. I’m squeezing out the last 15% now through weekly visits to HandsOnCare and stretches/exercises at my gym.
I would highly recommend Hands on Care, they made a major change in my life and got me out of what was quite literally a mid-life crisis.
See attached me in the ICU. See the video below, my first show after 5 months. I’m the guy in Black in the middle.
I’ve been to several hand therapists over the years and Saba’s the best. I’ve had to go many times due to my severe arthritis, which causes painful flares. I’ve seen her for flares in both hands involving my thumbs and fingers as well as my elbows and shoulders.
The last flare I had was in my elbow and I stupidly went to a therapist close to my house because I could hardly drive, instead of going to Saba. They actually made me worse! When I saw Saba my elbow was so bad my arm was completely immobile and I was in great pain. She was amazing; in just one visit she greatly restored my range of motion and reduced my pain!
It’s always fun to go in there too. Everyone is laughing and it’s a really fun atmosphere. I always miss Saba and the staff when I’ve stopped going.
