For example, if you want to take a bath you might first learn how to turn on the water, then adjust the temperature, find the soap and towel, and finally, get into the tub. Once the plan is made, then all it takes is practice, practice, practice. Because occupational therapy is unique to each person and every kid learns at his own speed, treatment may last a short time or a long time. Some kids find their needs change as they get older or change schools. They return to the occupational therapist to figure out new ways of coping with problems or to master a new skill.
Kids can help speed up treatment by following the instructions of their occupational therapist.
It's important to work hard and practice on your own. Some activities or exercises may look weird but they all have a purpose. And with time and lots of practice, you will see all that hard work pay off. For specific medical advice, diagnoses, and treatment, consult your doctor.
