Occupational Therapy
To Help Maximize Function

Occupational Therapists (OT) help maximize function and independence in their clients. Specifically, they help patients to fulfill their daily roles and routines despite physical or mental challenges that threaten independent completion of these roles. The primary roles and responsibilities of children are to grow, play, learn and explore. Therefore, Occupational Therapists work throughout many areas to help children accomplish their activities of daily living to the best of their capabilities. Some areas where an OT may be helpful to your child are: play, handwriting, upper body strengthening, bilateral coordination, visual motor integration and social and emotional development.
