Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy helps people who have motor or sensory difficulties address their problems and reach their potential.

Therapy also helps people regain motor abilities following an illness or injury. With most problems in life, the sooner they are detected and addressed, the higher the success rate. This is especially true for children with special needs.

The right therapist can help correct a problem before it causes low self-esteem, poor school performance, or strained peer and family relationships. For some children, the need for therapy is more obvious.

Occupational therapy can help children with birth defects, such as spina bifida and cerebral palsy, or learning disabilities and developmental delays. Therapy also helps people with multiple handicaps, mental retardation, autism, or traumatic brain injuries.

Whether your child's problem is subtle or obvious, occupational therapy can help your child lead a happier life.
