Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy can help improve childs’ cognitive, physical and motor skills and build their self-esteem and sense of accomplishment.
Occupational therapy (OT) is a subspeciality of health care that empowers children of all ages who have physical, sensory, or cognitive difficulties. OT can assist them in regaining independence in every aspect of their lives. Occupational therapists assist with obstacles that disrupt an individual’s social, emotional, and functional needs.
We administer standardised tests like BOT-2 that measure fine and gross motor proficiency, with subtests that focus on stability, mobility, strength, coordination, and object manipulation. The test is tailored to school-aged children and young adults among the ages of 4-21 years, who have varying motor control abilities ranging from normal to mild or moderate and SPM (Sensory Processing Measure) which is the measure of function in the visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, gustatory, proprioceptive (body awareness), and vestibular (balance and motion) sensory systems, as well as praxis and social participation.
We ensure children reach their full potential!
