Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapy (OT) is a healthcare profession focused on helping individuals develop, recover, or maintain the skills needed for daily living and working. It addresses challenges related to physical, cognitive, sensory, and emotional aspects of life. Therapists use customized activities to improve the ability to perform everyday tasks, such as dressing, eating, and managing a home.

OT is especially helpful for those recovering from injury, living with disabilities, or facing developmental delays. The goal is to improve independence and participation in meaningful activities. Therapists may also adapt environments or tools to better suit the individual’s needs. Ultimately, Occupational Therapy aims to improve overall quality of life.
