Occupational Therapy
An Occupational Therapist (OT) is a qualified health professional. An OT works with children who have difficulties with the practical skills necessary for their everyday life. An OT aims to enable your child to be as independent as possible with everyday activities at home and nursery/school.
Our OT's are trained to provide specialist assessments and therapy to identify the causes of your child's difficulties and to help your child overcome these to achieve their full potential. Our OT's are trained in various treatment methods, including Sensory Integration.
Occupational Therapy can help with:
- Sensory Processing Difficulties:
- withdraws from touch, or seeks out excessive touch
- poor attention and concentration
- fidgety
- refusal to eat certain foods due to the texture of foods
- oversensitive to certain fabrics and clothing
- will only wear clothes without tags
- dislikes having hands and face dirty
- oversensitivity to sounds and/or makes excessive noise themselves
- oversensitive to movement such as swinging, spinning, going down stairs, or seeks out excessive movement
- Clumsiness, poor balance, poor coordination, tires quickly, falls frequently
- Delayed fine motor skills, e.g. fastening buttons, zips, laces, and using cutlery
- Delayed mark making and handwriting skills
