Treatment for Klumpke's Palsy includes surgery to try to restore the injured nerves, physical therapy and daily exercise to boost or sustain range of motion in the affected side. There is typically no improvement in physical function after two years of age.

An occupational therapist can sometimes help the affected person learn to live with the condition. However, early immobilization is followed by passive actions with an idea of preventing contractures (fibrosis of connective tissue and skin, fascia, muscle, or joint capsule that prevents ordinary mobility of the related tissue or joint). A routine of physical therapy and/or occupational therapy may be prescribed. Surgery may be an option in serious cases and especially if a nerve has been severed.
