What Is Occupational Therapy?
Occupational therapy (OT) helps people develop, recover, or maintain the skills needed for daily living after illness, injury, surgery, or changes in physical or cognitive function.

Upper extremity strength and coordination
Fine motor skills
Balance during daily activities
Hand and wrist function
Range of motion
Cognitive skills such as memory, attention, and organization
Visual-perceptual skills
Energy conservation and fatigue management
Activities of daily living (ADLs)

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral for occupational therapy?
Referral requirements vary depending on your insurance plan and state regulations. Our team can help determine what's needed before scheduling your appointment.
What's the difference between occupational therapy and physical therapy?
While physical therapy primarily focuses on improving movement, strength, and mobility, occupational therapy emphasizes helping people perform everyday activities safely and independently. Many patients benefit from both therapies as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation plan.
How long does occupational therapy take?
Every patient is different. The length of treatment depends on your condition, goals, and progress. Your therapist will discuss an individualized treatment plan after your evaluation.
Will therapy be painful?
Some exercises may challenge your muscles as you recover, but your therapist will tailor treatment to your comfort level while helping you make steady progress.
