Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapy aims to re-educate and rehabilitate a patient who has experienced a previous physical or mental condition and is unable to do daily routines. With this kind of treatment, the patient will again be able to perform self-care, work, and leisure tasks.
Splinting
It is the fabrication of temporary orthoses (brace) out of special material, such as a thermoplastic brace, which is applied to body parts to provide support or stabilization, resist or assist motion or correct deformities.
Industrial Rehabilitation
This type of rehab focuses on work-related injuries. It is done to evaluate workers’ functional assessment and aid in work simplification, work simulation, and hardening. If necessary, relaxation techniques, energy conservation techniques, and change in handedness are also utilized.
Visual Rehab
In Visual rehab, visual-impaired patients are taught to use a walking stick or cane.
Hand Rehab
In Hand rehab, patients with hand injuries are treated to improve grip strength, range of motion or change handedness, if necessary.
Dysarthria/Dysphagia Program
In this form of therapy, post-stroke patients are aided in speech re-education and swallowing.
Electrodiagnosis
Consisting of Electromyography (EMG) and Nerve Conduction Velocity Studies (NCV), Electrodiagnosis is used to detect and diagnose nerve and muscle pathologies.
