Ontario Society of Occupational Therapists

Occupational Therapy Making the everyday possible

Occupational Therapy (OT) is a health profession that empowers people of all ages to overcome barriers in their everyday lives so they can do more and live better. Through solutions created for each individual’s unique needs, occupational therapists help people of all ages and abilities recover from an injury or illness to participate in day-to-day activities, and experience life to the fullest.

How can an occupational therapist help?

An occupational therapist works with you, your family member, or a medical team to identify and address the problems you may have with everyday activities. Together, you and your OT will find solutions that will enable you to; maintain function, regain skills, develop new skills and much more.
