Occupational Therapy (OT) & You
Connect with professionals who are trained to help you do the things you need to most
Relaxation and Pain Management
A major part of pain management is the ability to modulate the senses in your mind and body. OTs account for psychological and physical barriers to your meaningful activities.
Soft Tissue manipulation and Therapeutic Exercises
OTs can assess structural factors within our body that limit efficiency in movement. Prescribing targeted therapeutic exercises can help create and maintain progress.
Ergonomics
Movement efficiency is influenced by how our environment is arranged and how we are able to move within it.
OTs are skilled in evaluating work and home environments and their effect on the body over time.
Improving Sleep Hygiene and Positioning
Around a 1/3 of our life is spent sleeping. Our sleeping posture can directly influence the health of our nerves, muscles, and vessels. OT's evaluate sleep hygiene and positiong to maximize sleep quality.
Orthoses
Orthoses can facilitate proper healing following injuries or other upper extremity disorders. OTs strive to craft customizable orthoses to meet your unique specific needs.
Environmental Adaption
OTs analyze activities meaningful to you to facilitate improved quality of life and continued independence.
Content Creation to Help You Learn More
Content creators who are trained clinicians provide direct learning and application opportunities that can be difficult to achieve through a textbook. In addition to learning opportunities, therapists tend to make fun memes and jokes which are fun to enjoy on your study breaks.
