Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy involves individual work with the child; group therapy is also conducted for certain age groups.

Treatment includes applying general and specialized occupational therapy procedures, techniques and methods for:

• Preventing and correcting pathological patterns, as well as stimulating, adopting and automating normal motor patterns and sensorimotor development;
• Developing hand and palm functions (stimulating and practicing grasp, manipulative skills, gross and fine visual–motor coordination, dexterity and precision, unilateral and bimanual activities, practicing graphomotor skills);
• Sensory integration (vestibular, proprioceptive, tactile, auditory, and visual stimulation);
• Practicing perceptual functions (optical, acoustic, tactile);
• Training and correcting self–care activities for everyday life;
• Pre–professional training.
