Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapy services enhance an individual’s quality of life by targeting skill deficits that affect their ability to engage in daily activities. Successfully managing these tasks fosters independence, self-worth, and increased confidence. For children, essential activities include play, social interaction with peers, and self-care. Delays in sensory or motor skills can hinder their participation in these vital activities, ultimately impacting their overall quality of life.

• Activities of Daily Living (ADLs)

• Primitive Reflex Integration 

• Fine Motor 

• Visual Motor Integration 

• Sensory Processing

• Attention

Feeding Therapy

Occupational therapists play a crucial role in feeding therapy by helping individuals develop the skills necessary for safe and effective eating and drinking. They assess a child's or adult's sensory processing, motor skills, and oral-motor function to identify specific challenges. Through tailored interventions, therapists work on improving skills such as chewing, swallowing, and self-feeding, while also addressing any sensory sensitivities or aversions to certain textures and tastes. By creating a supportive and engaging environment, occupational therapists empower clients to enhance their feeding abilities, leading to improved nutrition, increased independence, and a greater overall quality of life.

Areas that can be addressed by an Occupational Therapist:

• Sensory Processing

• Oral-Motor Skills

• Self-Feeding Skills

• Hand-Eye Coordination

• Posture and Positioning

• Behavioral Strategies
