Occupational therapy focuses on the treatment of conditions that limit an individual’s ability to perform the tasks of daily living, work and leisure activities. The goal is to help the patient function as independently as possible through the use of physical treatment techniques as well as therapeutic changes or adaptations to their skills and environment.
Our highly qualified and experienced occupational therapists and Certified 职业治疗 Assistants (COTAs) will guide you in the development or relearning of skills needed to perform the activities of daily living and occupational tasks. Our therapists also offer specialized care for the hand and arm. The therapist will utilize exercises and manual techniques as well as splinting to improve function.
Occupational therapy may be used alone or in combination with physical therapy or other therapies as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation plan. Y我们的 therapist will work with the rest of y我们的 care team, including y我们的 primary care physician, occupational health physicians, surgeons and other specialty care providers.
Occupational therapy may be used to treat injuries or illnesses such as:
- upper extremity orthopedic conditions such as fractures, 肌腱炎, hand trauma and post-operative repair
- 关节炎
- neurological impairments such as stroke, head injury or multiple sclerosis (MS)
- chronic pain syndromes such as fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue
- lymphedema and shoulder/elbow/hand limitations resulting from breast cancer and/or breast cancer surgery
