Perceptual Difficulties:
Visual perception is the total process of extracting and organizing information from the environment and then interpreting and using what is seen. Therefore, we offer occupational therapy to help improve perceptual skills and teach compensatory strategies to help children with visual perceptual problems.
Fine Motor Delays:
Fine motor skills refer to the small muscle movements of the hands. Firstly, hand skills are necessary to complete most pre-academic/academic, self-care, and play activities. Secondly, fine motor delays can lead to decreased ability to perform self care, muscle weakness, and coordination difficulties.
Return to Sports:
Complex sports injuries often require a Return to Play Assessment due to the amount of recovery and rehabilitation that needs to be taken into account. So, we perform these assessments to ensure that your young athlete regains full function post-injury and can return to the activities they love!
