Occupational Therapy
JRI's pediatric occupational therapy services are designed for children who are experiencing fine motor difficulties. Occupational therapy for children can help with:
- Manipulation of objects or handwriting
- Motor coordination
- Activities of daily living and self-help skills
- Sensory integration
- Organization
- Impulse control
Children can be seen either individually or in groups. Depending on the specific areas of concern, pediatric occupational therapy strategies may include activities to strengthen the upper body, sensorimotor-based activities, feeding activities, computer applications, and splinting for positioning and improving function.
