What is Occupational Therapy?
Occupational therapy is focused on helping people recovering from injury or illness to regain the skills and movement needed to do everyday activities. Whether recovering from surgery, joint problems, head injury, stroke, or other conditions – our fellowship-trained therapists and clinicians are here to help improve your quality of life.
Some of the day-to-day skills that occupational therapy can help patients recover include bathing, dressing, eating, cooking, driving, and work skills, to name a few. We understand the importance that you and your loved ones place on regaining such everyday functioning so you can live a more fulfilling, healthier life.
Occupational Therapy Benefits
Improve Everyday Life
Life is hard when you have problems with everyday activities like working, walking, preparing meals, or even eating. Occupational therapy restores your ability to perform basic tasks – greatly improving your quality of life.
Avoid Surgery
In some cases, occupational therapy can help you avoid undergoing surgery. This is vital, as natural healing is almost always preferable to invasive surgery, which can lead to potential complications and health problems.
Prevent Falls
Falls are one of the major causes of injuries – but they can be prevented. Your therapist can assess your risk factors for falling and also prescribe specific exercises to increase your strength and stability to prevent falls.
Increase Flexibility
One of the keys to recovery and good overall health is increasing muscle and joint flexibility. Your therapist can prescribe stretching exercises, heat therapy, or other techniques to loosen tight muscles and tendons.
Pain Relief
Occupational therapy can provide significant pain relief by educating you on how improper body positioning can cause pain. In addition, stretching techniques and specific exercises can improve movement and reduce pain.
Our Approach
Our customized treatment plans include a holistic approach focused on adapting the environment to fit the person and making each patient an integral part of team decisions and treatment options. Our occupational therapists can provide evaluations and treatments in settings ranging from our own clinics to other healthcare facilities, schools, workplaces, and more.
In addition, we offer guidance and education for family members and caregivers to support the patient throughout recovery.
