Several conditions can affect everyday functionality. While physical therapy helps you to move, occupational therapy helps you to accomplish daily tasks despite limitations. When fine motor skills are challenged, OT supports a patient by adapting the environment to fit their needs.
APTO works with pediatric, adult, and senior patients. On any given day we could be helping a child with a disability to participate fully in school and social situations, helping people recovering from injury to regain certain skills, and providing support for older adults experiencing physical and cognitive changes.
We believe in individual care. That's why we meet with our patients one-on-one, using the patients remaining strengths to promote independence.
