What Is Occupational Therapy?
Occupational therapy (OT) focuses on improving the skills needed for daily living and working after injury or illness. According to the NIH Clinical Center, OT is designed to help patients restore their ability to perform meaningful tasks and adapt to limitations after injury.
At Airport Plaza Spine and Wellness, our licensed occupational therapists personalize each treatment plan to meet your specific goals and challenges.
How Injuries Impact Daily Function
After an injury, patients often struggle with:
Reduced hand dexterity
Limited joint mobility
Muscle weakness
Poor coordination
Cognitive difficulties (in some cases)
These challenges can make everyday activities like bathing, writing, using utensils, or driving difficult or impossible. Occupational therapy helps restore these abilities gradually through targeted exercises and adaptive strategies.

At Airport Plaza Spine and Wellness, occupational therapy is an essential step in many patients’ recovery journeys. Key benefits include:
