Occupational therapy is a key discipline in the rehabilitation and recovery of people with physical, neurological or cognitive limitations. Its goal is to help patients regain autonomy in their daily activities, improving their quality of life through personalised treatments.
At ClínicaBonaque® in Lorca, we have a team of professionals specialised in occupational therapy, offering a comprehensive approach to each patient’s rehabilitation.
What Is Occupational Therapy?
Occupational therapy focuses on enhancing individuals’ independence in daily life by adapting or rehabilitating their abilities so they can carry out essential activities such as dressing, cooking, writing or working.
This treatment is essential for people who have experienced:
✔️ Musculoskeletal injuries, such as fractures or surgeries. ✔️ Neurological conditions, such as stroke, Parkinson’s or multiple sclerosis. ✔️ Congenital or acquired disabilities. ✔️ Cognitive decline or neurodegenerative diseases. ✔️ Work or traffic accidents resulting in physical or cognitive after-effects.
Benefits of Occupational Therapy
🔹 Recovery of mobility and manual dexterity. 🔹 Improvement in coordination and balance. 🔹 Adaptation of the environment to support independence. 🔹 Reduction in pain and improvement in overall wellbeing. 🔹 Reintegration into work and social life.
Treatments are personalised and may include physical exercises, postural re-education techniques, daily activity training, and advanced rehabilitation technologies.
How Does an Occupational Therapist Work?
Treatment is tailored to the specific needs of each patient, using a comprehensive approach based on:
🔹 Initial assessment: The patient’s situation, limitations and goals are analysed. 🔹 Rehabilitation exercises: Specific programmes to improve mobility and strength. 🔹 Training in daily activities: Techniques to restore independence in everyday life. 🔹 Use of assistive devices: Adapting the environment with ergonomic tools. 🔹 Ongoing support and monitoring: Continuous adjustments based on patient progress.
