Occupational therapy at Eastern Therapy Hub helps with:

• fine motor skills (small-muscle movements made with the hands, fingers, and toes, such as grasping)

• visual-perceptual skills

• cognitive (thinking) skills

• sensory-processing problems

An OT might work on skills like:

• Developing fine motor skills for grasping and releasing toys, developing good handwriting or computer skills.

• Improving eye–hand coordination for play and academics.

• Improving and mastering basic life skills such as bathing, getting dressed, brushing teeth, and feeding.

• Learning positive behaviours and social skills by practicing management of frustration and anger.

• Sourcing special equipment to help build independence. This may include wheelchairs, splints, bathing equipment, dressing devices, and communication aids.

Occupational Therapy helps children and adolescents with their play skills, improves their school performance, and aids their daily activities.

OTs also work with adults to improve their functional capacity for daily activities, boost self-confidence and promote a sense of accomplishment.
