Occupational therapy begins on day one of the client's course of treatment and continues through their journey until they become competent with their everyday tasks once again. The treatment a client receives is tailored to their own unique requirements and injury conditions. This means that we provide the best options for every client to ensure a fast and effective recovery.
Typical treatment periods involve up to 5 hours per week, but the duration of each session will once again be suited to the individual. Only a small part of the therapy involves a gym, and the bulk of it will be focused on letting the client feel comfortable and at home in order to make the process of relearning tasks as pain and stress-free as possible. We use a variety of different methods and environments to make sure that the client does not feel trapped or insecure when faced with the daunting task of learning how to do basic things that they used to be able to do.
We utilize a variety of different environments to give each client a wide range of useful experiences. One of the places that our clients enjoy visiting for example is a small mosaic shop nearby called “Touch of Glass”. The calming nature of this experience, along with the rest of the treatment, helps the client feel relaxed and thus better able to carry out the tasks required for their rehabilitation.
We know how important it is for our clients to regain their independence, and our highly trained team of Occupational Therapists are on hand to ensure that they can do this as fast as possible.
