Pediatric Occupational Therapy in Greater Orlando
Occupational therapy revolves around helping children participate in everyday activities through therapeutic intervention. The most common example includes children with disabilities learning to participate in school and social situations, or everyday activities such as eating or dressing themselves. However, occupational therapy is aimed to help treat all emotional, social, developmental and even physical problems in children. Therapeutic treatment involves an evaluation of the child and an ongoing facilitation of developmental milestones. Throughout the process, recommendations will be given for adaptive equipment, and guidance will be given to family and caregivers.
