I can suggest the company Smith and Nephew who run a very sound series of hand therapy/splinting courses. I have attended two of them and found them to be excellent. These were in Australia however I know Smith and Nephew have branches worldwide. Good Luck

i am currently studying physiotherapy in Albury, Australia, and have been given a research task on hand management. I was wondering whether, as you appear conversant in the area, you could direct me to sites that may give me fairly general, but comprehensive material on the topic. Any response would be greatly appreciated.
Thankyou,
James
