About Occupational Therapy
Holism = the treatment of the whole person, taking into account mental and social factors, rather than just the physical symptoms of a condition.
Occupational therapy (OT) = a holistic profession that is science-based, client-centered and concerned with improving independence through occupation.
Occupations = are your everyday activities (self-care, household tasks, leisure and productivity); i.e. all that you do and the roles that drive the activities.
The primary goal of OT is to enable and empower you to participate in your meaningful activities of everyday life, despite physical and/or mental health conditions.
Your occupational therapist achieves this outcome by working with you, your family and/or available services to enhance your ability to engage and complete the occupations that you want to, need to, or are expected to do.
Your occupational therapist can modify your environment to better support your engagement by recommending house, work or school adaptations and/or providing equipment.
Ultimately, promoting good health & well-being and improving quality of life!
