Illness and advancing age can put limitations on the body, compromising your quality of life. Occupational therapy is there to help empower you, by giving you strategies to accomplish what your physical limitations have been making difficult for you.
At the office of The Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation Center, our team of professionals is committed to working with you to develop a customized OT treatment plan with a focus on improving your ability to perform the activities of daily living.
Occupational therapy practitioners enable people of all ages to live life to its fullest by helping them promote health, and prevent—or live better with—injury, illness, or disability.
Common occupational therapy helps children with disabilities to participate fully in school and social situations, helps people recovering from injury to regain skills, and provides supports for older adults experiencing physical and cognitive changes.
Occupational therapy practitioners have a holistic perspective, in which the focus is on adapting the environment and/or task to fit you, and where you are an integral part of the therapy team.
The process begins with an individualized evaluation, during which the you and your family meet with one of our occupational therapists to determine your particular goals. We then go on to develop a customized treatment plan designed to improve your ability to perform daily activities and to reach your personal goals.
As important as it is for your occupational therapist to ask you questions, it is equally important that you ask questions of him to make sure you fully understand the process. If there is something you do not understand, be sure to ask.
