We notice a lot of Belgian hand therapists are eager to advance their level of hand therapy. Therefore we'll aim to deliver you an overview of related hand therapy courses.

Are you planning to organize a LOKK session on hand-related issues and looking to broaden your netwerk, reach a wider audience and content support?
The BHT would be happy to collaborate with you! Our members are specialized therapists with in-depth expertise in hand and wrist conditions, rehabilitation, and evidence-based therapy.

💬 Speakers are, of course, appropriately compensated for their contribution.

📩 Interested in collaborating? Get in touch with us — we’d be happy to explore the possibilities together!
