What is OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY?

Occupational Therapy is a profession concerned with promoting health and well being through occupation. The primary goal of occupational therapy is to assist people to participate in the activities of everyday life and enhance the quality of their lives.

OCCUPATION THERAPY IN PAEDIATRICS

Life was about running with the dog, playing tag in the woods, climbing trees, playing ball in the alley, and pretending to be a superhero or a princess. Adults often have fond memories of their childhood days. As children, however, they did not think about the reasons they engaged in play activities or why particular activities were enjoyable—it was just fun! Occupational therapists, however, have a different perspective on play. Occupational therapy practitioners are concerned not only with the child’s performance in everyday activities but also the environmental influences that enable a child’s engagement and participation in those activities.
