Occupational therapy

Activities

Occupational therapy is founded on occupational science and meaningful occupation. The exercises suggested are based on a variety of sensorimotor techniques, such as mirror therapy, the Bobath approach, the Perfetti method, constraint-induced movement therapy and virtual reality.

We offer a wide range of services including:
