Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy focuses on helping individuals with neurological conditions regain independence and improve daily functioning. It involves personalized treatment plans that address motor skills, coordination, strength, and cognitive abilities, using exercises, adaptive strategies, and assistive devices to support tasks like dressing, cooking, driving, or returning to work. The goal is to optimize physical, mental, and emotional well-being, enabling patients to participate more fully in their daily lives and community activities.
