Occupational Therapy at home

Getting back to the ordinary things of a day.

Fingers pressing into therapy putty to build hand strength

Occupational therapy works on the practical business of living — dressing, eating, writing, gripping, remembering. The therapist works in your own home, so the goal is not an exercise done well in a clinic but a task done independently where you live.

What this treats

What a visit looks like

  1. AssessmentThe first visit is spent understanding the problem — what hurts, what you cannot do yet, and what you need to get back to.
  2. TreatmentHands-on work and guided exercise, in your own rooms, using what you already have rather than clinic equipment you do not.
  3. Between visitsYou are left with something to practise. Most of the progress happens here, not during the hour someone is with you.

Occupational Therapy — questions we get

How is occupational therapy different from physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy works on movement, strength and pain. Occupational therapy works on using that movement for daily tasks — buttoning a shirt, holding a cup, managing a kitchen safely.

Can it help with memory and attention?

Yes. Cognitive training is part of it, often after a stroke or head injury, and is practised through real tasks rather than worksheets.
