Occupational therapists work hard to make sure that every patient has a successful outcome. However, there are things that people can do to ensure they get the most out of every therapy session, including:
Be Patient - It will likely take some time for you to achieve the results you want.
Stay involved in your treatment - Commit to doing the recommended exercises at home.
Go to every session - It may be tempting to skip, but consistency will bring quicker results.
Ask for help - If something isn’t working or you lack motivation, tell your therapist— communication is key!
Focus on the end goal - Remember your “why” and take it one day at a time.
