Our Philosophy
"We got into occupational therapy to help people, and this is our philosophy at Achieve Rehab: to provide hands-on expertise, using the latest, most effective treatment methods available to help people get back to their active lifestyle and what means most to them. We want our patients to have less pain with more function, and learn how to prevent future injuries. We are committed to giving our patients the latest most up to date methods of therapy, and the personal one on one touch people need the most."
Whether it is muscle or joint injuries, post-surgery rehab of the shoulder, elbow, wrist or hand, a return-to-work program, fall prevention programs, or educating you about preventing pain or injury, the staff at Achieve Rehab is committed to your satisfaction. Our office can be contacted at (620) 792-2111. Our hours are 8 a.m. - 6 p.m., Monday - Friday, with other appointments available to fit your schedule. We offer free consultations to identify your painful condition and to determine if occupational or hand therapy can help your situation.

Hands-On Expertise for Better Health
A Certified Hand Therapist (CHT) is an occupational therapist or physical therapist who has a minimum of five years of clinical experience, including 4,000 hours or more in direct practice in hand therapy. In addition, a Certified Hand Therapist has successfully passed a comprehensive test of advanced clinical skills and theory in upper quarter rehabilitation. Because of changes in the profession, every CHT is required to demonstrate continued professional development and competency by recertifying every five years. This credential distinguishes an occupational or physical therapist as someone with the highest professional credential in the specialty of shoulder, elbow, wrist or hands rehabilitation.
If your hands hurt, if you have an increasing weakness with activities you normally do, or if you are recovering from shoulder, hand or elbow surgery, you will need a therapist with advanced skills in the rehabilitation of the upper extremity. Whether you have arthritis, a sports-related injury, rotator cuff repair, tendonitis, or any kind of a pain in the entire arm, a CHT is an expert needed for return to your fullest abilities. Achieve Rehab is the only provider of rehabilitation in a 5 county area around Great Bend with a certified hand therapist.
