Occupational Therapy vs Physical Therapy
Occupational therapy helps people stay independent and enjoy the activities that matter most in daily life. While physical therapists often focus on improving movement, strength, and mobility after an injury or surgery, occupational therapists help you use that movement to get back to everyday tasks like cooking, dressing, working, or hobbies.
Our occupational therapists specialize in upper extremity and neurological rehabilitation, using exercises, training, and adaptive strategies to improve arm and hand function, coordination, and fine motor skills. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, living with arthritis, or managing a neurological condition, OT helps you regain the skills and confidence you need for daily living.
