OCCUPATIONAL
THERAPY
Occupational Therapy (OT) at Saamarthya Foundation plays a vital role in enhancing the lives of neurodivergent children by addressing their sensory, motor, and cognitive needs. Our holistic and individualized approach to therapy helps children build the skills required for daily living, academic success, and emotional well-being.
What We Offer in Occupational Therapy:
-
Sensory Integration: We address sensory processing challenges that may affect how children interact with the world around them. Our sensory-focused activities help children regulate their responses to sensory input, promoting greater comfort and engagement in daily tasks.
-
Fine and Gross Motor Skills: Through targeted exercises, we help children develop coordination, strength, and dexterity, essential for activities like writing, tying shoelaces, or playing sports.
-
Self-Care Skills: We teach children essential self-care skills like brushing teeth, eating, dressing, and personal hygiene, helping them become more independent in their daily routines.
-
Social Skills and Emotional Regulation: Occupational therapy is not just about physical tasks; it also involves supporting children to develop emotional resilience and social interaction skills, preparing them for success in social settings.
-
Adaptive Strategies and Tools: We provide practical tools and strategies, including assistive devices or specialized equipment, to help children manage challenges and participate more fully in home, school, and social activities.
