Occupational therapy at Children's Theraplay focuses on addressing disruptions in areas such as gross motor skills, fine motor skills, cognitive-perceptual skills, sensory motor integration, visual motor skills, and more. They also provide specialized therapy for infants and toddlers with conditions including birth injuries, learning disabilities, cerebral palsy, developmental delays, ADHD, autism, and other conditions that impact daily living skills.
For children with sensory processing disorder, Children's Theraplay offers individualized programs designed by occupational therapists to help individuals process and use sensory information more effectively. These programs often include a "sensory diet" to address difficulties with the five senses, proprioceptive system, and vestibular system.
