What is Occupational Therapy?
Occupations are everything we do throughout the day. If you are a toddler, you might eat, help dress yourself, fasten your zippers and buttons on your clothing, brush your hair, play, feed yourself, wash your hands, etc. If you are a school-aged child, you might wake up on your own after a good night of sleep, dress yourself independently, prepare your own food, complete restroom hygiene, pay attention to lessons in school, complete school work, participate in hobbies, sports, and after-school activities, get ready for sleep, and fall asleep. Occupations are individualized to every person. In Occupational Therapy, we work toward functional goals, tailored to each client’s occupations and what they want to and need to be able to do as independently as possible. Please call/text 814-419-4616 for more information about occupational therapy services.
What is Hippotherapy?
Hippotherapy is a research based technique that uses equine movement to provide various motor and sensory input to the individual. Skillfully directed equine movement, under the direction of a licensed therapist, can offer the individual an opportunity for complex motor learning. Hippotherapy, in conjunction with other treatment strategies, promotes the engagement of the sensory, neuromotor, and cognitive systems, and improved balance, coordination, and motor skills to assist in reaching functional outcomes.
