Occupational Therapy

Our experienced team of occupational therapists will help you to overcome the barriers you may face in all aspects of your life due to an injury or disability.

 

What is Occupational Therapy?

The Royal College of Occupational Therapists (RCOT) defines occupational therapy as helping you to achieve your best life at home, work, school and everywhere else. It is about being able to do the things you want and must do.

This could mean helping you overcome challenges learning at school, going to work, playing sport or simply doing the household chores.

The focus is on your well-being and ability to participate in activities.

Occupational therapy is also a science-based, regulated health and social care profession.

Our experienced team of occupational therapists are here to help.

Our Occupational Therapy Services

Our team of experienced occupational therapists help to overcome challenges completing everyday tasks or activities, also known as 'occupations'.

An occupation is any activity that we need, want or like to do to live and to look after our physical and mental health, and our emotional and spiritual wellbeing. We do occupations from the moment we’re born, on our own or with others (rcot.co.uk).

It is not just about jobs or daily living tasks. It includes all aspects of life including self-care, such as washing, eating or sleeping; work and study; caring and domestic activities; and leisure, hobbies and socialising.

Each occupation is unique to everyone and depends on what matters most. Importantly, our occupations can change as we move through our lives.

Overall, occupations are essential to our fulfilment. They provide meaning, purpose and structure to enhance our health and quality of life.
