Susanne Corrales, OTR/L
Susanne is the founder and owner of Hand Wellness Occupational Therapy. She received her Bachelor’s Degree from Seton Hall University and a Masters Degree in Occupational Therapy from Mercy College. Susanne has advanced training in Upper Extremity Orthopedics and Hand Therapy. Her specialty is treating conditions and injuries of the hands, wrists and fingers.
Susanne is an active participant in EDS ECHO, a series of programs and courses for healthcare professionals who want to improve their ability to care for people with Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes (EDS), hypermobility spectrum disorders (HSD) and their associated complications. She is especially interested in how these conditions affect the upper extremity.
Susanne Corrales is also a certified yoga instructor (RYT-200), specializing in Restorative Yoga. She incorporates mindfulness and stress reduction into treatment sessions. Often, clients who struggle with the anxiety of participating in Orthopedic Rehabilitation find this approach to be reassuring.
I live with Joint Hypermobility every day. I understand my clients because of my own lived experience. This has allowed me to provide the sensitivity, validation and compassion that I sought out through my own journey as a patient. I have also become an expert in modifying and adapting my own environment, and I can help you do the same.
