Conditions Occupational Therapy Treats
There are many reasons why someone may require occupational therapy. From reducing pain and improving strength to increasing mobility, occupational therapy can help with a wide range of conditions. Some of the most common conditions our therapists treat include:
Neurological Conditions
Our occupational therapists specialize in providing care for individuals with a variety of neurological conditions and disorders, including:
- Stroke
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- Spinal cord injury
- Parkinson’s disease
- Multiple sclerosis (MS)
Through personalized exercise programs, we work to improve range of motion, strength, and visual perception, with the ultimate goal of enhancing the patient’s ability to perform their daily activities with independence.
Hand Injuries
Your hands are an essential part of your life and may be affected by a variety of conditions, including carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, fractures, sprains, and arthritis. Our occupational therapists can help you strengthen and restore hand function through various exercises and modalities designed to reduce pain and improve your hand’s mobility.
Developmental Delays
Occupational therapy aims to support the development of children with delays by improving their motor skills, cognitive abilities, sensory processing, communication, and play skills. By providing targeted interventions and support, our occupational therapists work to enhance your child’s overall development, reduce the risk of further delays, and assist families in addressing the unique needs of their infants and toddlers.
Upper Extremity Splinting
Splinting is a common intervention employed by occupational therapists to provide support, immobilization, and protection to the arm or hand following an injury or surgery. An occupational therapist may utilize custom-made splints tailored to the patient’s specific needs or use pre-fabricated splints.
Splinting is a powerful tool in the therapist’s arsenal, as it helps to alleviate pain, promote healing, and prevent further injury. The ability of occupational therapists to provide expertly crafted splints is a testament to their comprehensive understanding of the human body and their ability to design effective treatment plans.
Spinal Injuries
Our occupational therapists provide thorough care for those who have endured spinal injuries, aiding them toward complete recovery. In addition, occupational therapists offer a plethora of tools to assist those with spinal injuries on their journey toward independence and successful rehabilitation. By reducing obstacles along the way, these practitioners are invaluable in helping patients reach their maximum potential.
Functional Rehabilitation
Functional rehabilitation is a cornerstone of our practice. We strive to help patients reclaim their independence by providing tailored treatment plans centered on functional rehab and specialized exercises. This allows patients to gain the skills and confidence necessary to re-engage in their daily lives.
