Occupational therapists treat all individuals through all ages and stages of life, enabling people of all ages to live life to its fullest by helping them promote health, and prevent—or live better with—injury, illness, or disability. Occupational therapy is more than just addressing an injury. At Choice Therapy, our occupational therapists focus on your functional needs by implementing certain exercises and activities that promote physical and psychological well-being.
Occupational therapy is the only profession that helps people across the lifespan (from newborns to older adults) to do the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of daily activities (occupations), such as eating, dressing, school activities and work. Occupational therapy is a form of treatment that is deeply rooted in science and supported by numerous medical journals. Our northern Minnesota occupational therapists work hard to help you recover from injuries and regain functional skills.

- Pediatrics: developmental delay, sensory integration, emotional regulation, reflex integration, visual deficits, motor skills
According to the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA), in addition to dealing with your physical well-being, It is practitioners address psychological, social, and environmental factors that may hinder your function. For example, this therapy for a mother may include using a special tool to make cupcakes at home. If an adaptation to a utensil needs to be fashioned, an occupational therapist will do it. This unique approach makes this therapy a vital part of health care.
