Our Processes

Occupational therapy is a branch of medicine that uses activities and play to enhance and develop the skills of individuals so that they can perform better in everyday tasks. These tasks for children include tying shoelaces or dressing, handwriting, playing, throwing and catching and paying attention in class.

All of our experienced paediatric occupational therapists have been specially trained and use the Occupational Therapy process as a guide to treatment.

This provides us with an opportunity to deliver the improvements that matter most to you, your child and your family, whether that be improving handwriting, improving balance and co-ordination or offering advice on the latest adaptive equipment available to further improve the quality of your child's life.
