April is Occupational Therapy Month, the perfect time to educate your friends and family on occupational therapy and its importance. Occupational therapy is the “only profession that helps people across the lifespan to do the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of daily activities,” according to the American Occupational Therapy Association.

Occupational therapy helps people at all stages of life develop, maintain, or recover the necessary skills to perform daily tasks. At Comprehensive Medical Care, our team can help address any of the following ailments:

Benefits of Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy has many benefits, including:

Improves physical functioning

Occupational therapy helps people restore their preferred life activities, allowing them to move freely with confidence. Being able to move freely promotes health and well-being through a more engaged lifestyle.

Enhancing emotional well-being

When you are unable to perform simple daily tasks or activities that matter to you, your emotional well-being may start to decline. It can be discouraging when you have to sit out of certain activities or need the help from someone else. Occupational therapy provides support to empower people to overcome those barriers preventing them from performing such activities.

Improves an individual’s independence

Occupational therapy helps improve an individual’s independence. Relying on someone else to help you perform certain activities can be challenging. With occupational therapy, our team can help you get back on your feet and live life to its fullest.
