Occupational Therapy

How Occupational Therapy Can Help

The greatest therapy that you never heard of but that you might just need. Why?  Because Occupational Therapy is a holistic discipline that incorporates the physical, psychological, emotional and environmental considerations of everything you do (your occupations) to create custom solutions that meet your needs and help you live life to its fullest no matter your health condition, disability, or risk factors.

Struggling with daily tasks

If everyday tasks are becoming too difficult and you choose your clothing to avoid buttons, zippers or tie-on shoes, Occupational therapy can help you get back to taking care of your best self through a combination of rehabilitation, adaptive equipment and task modification.

Fall prevention and recovery

If you have had falls or near falls, if you need to hold on to furniture when you stand or walk or use the towel rack to get in/out of your shower/tub, Occupational Therapy is an important part of fall prevention training and can help prevent falls and keep you safe at home.  Occupational therapists are also experts at home modifications and adaptive equipment to help you stay as independent as possible.

Shoulder/Arm/Hand Injuries & Limitations

Because your upper body is so important to your ability to function independently, Occupational Therapists are experts and specifically trained  in the rehabilitation and treatment of acute and chronic conditions involving the hands, arms and shoulders.

Low Vision

Occupational therapy helps individuals with low vision or vision loss from aging or conditions like stroke maintain independence and safety in daily activities.  Therapists help develop compensatory strategies, enhance remaining sensory skills, and build confidence in navigating their environments, enabling them to continue meaningful activities and participation in daily life despite changes in vision.

Chronic Disease Management

For neurological and progressive diseases, Occupational Therapists  use individualized strategies such as task simplification, cognitive and motor skill training, environmental modifications, and caregiver education to manage symptoms and slow functional decline.  Your therapist can also help you maintain quality of life by adapting routines and meaningful activities as the disease progresses.
