Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy supports and guides people of all ages who are restricted in their ability to act or are at risk of restriction. The aim is to empower them to carry out activities that are meaningful to them across areas of self-care, productivity, and leisure within their personal environment. Here, specific activities, environmental adaptation, and counselling serve to enable people to act within everyday life, participate in society, and improve their quality of life.
