Kendall Hand and Physical Therapy is led by James Jackson, MS, OTR/L, CHT, in bringing 30+ years of experience in managing both traumatic and diseases of the upper extremity. He has been a certified hand therapist since its conception in 1991.

The intricate anatomy of the arm and hand frequently requires very delicate surgery, often with microscopic techniques. The technical complexity of these kinds of surgeries necessitates a high level of competence by therapist with advanced skills in the upper quarter rehabilitation during postoperative recovery. Therapists must be knowledgeable about these advanced surgical techniques and postoperative therapy programs to become CHTs. They must also remain current with changes in hand therapy practice.
