Occupational Therapy in Plymouth, MI

Enjoying Plymouth’s active lifestyle—like walks in Kellogg Park or gardening in spring—supported by personalized occupational therapy at Athletico Physical Therapy, helping residents regain independence after hand, wrist, or shoulder injuries.

Nestled in the heart of Plymouth, MI, life moves at a vibrant pace—whether you’re strolling through Kellogg Park on a crisp fall afternoon, working with your hands in the garden during spring, or enjoying the community’s many festivals and local events. But when an injury, chronic pain, or health condition gets in the way, even the simplest daily routines can feel overwhelming. That’s where Occupational Therapy comes in. At Athletico Physical Therapy – Plymouth, we’re passionate about helping our neighbors regain independence and confidence, so you can keep doing what you love, regardless of the season.

What Is Occupational Therapy and How Can It Help?

Occupational Therapy is a specialized approach designed to help you overcome challenges that affect your ability to perform everyday activities. Whether you’re recovering from a hand injury after a weekend home project, managing shoulder pain that makes it hard to reach for a mug in the kitchen, or facing mobility issues as the Michigan winter sets in, our occupational therapists are here for you. Our goal is to help you restore function, adapt to changes, and improve your quality of life—so you can get back to the hobbies, work, and community life that make Plymouth special.

Personalized Hand and Upper Extremity Therapy

The hands, wrists, and shoulders are crucial for nearly every activity—typing, cooking, gardening, or even cheering on the local football team. That’s why our hand therapists and hand OTs offer targeted hand therapy and upper extremity therapy, addressing injuries and conditions that impact your ability to move and function comfortably.

If you’re experiencing stiffness after shoveling snow, pain from repetitive motions at work, or discomfort that makes it hard to enjoy Plymouth’s vibrant outdoor scene, we’re ready to help. Our occupational therapists use personalized plans to address:

  • Hand and wrist pain, including arthritis or overuse injuries
  • Shoulder pain and limited range of motion
  • Recovery after fractures, sprains, or tendon injuries
  • Nerve conditions that affect grip and coordination
  • Post-injury swelling or scar management

Your therapy will always be tailored to your unique needs—whether you want to get back to painting, golf, or simply opening doors with ease.

In a community as active as Plymouth, it’s hard to be sidelined by pain or limited mobility.
