HOLISTIC OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY SERVICES
WHAT IS HOLISTIC OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY?
Holistic occupational therapy provides clients with a bridge between traditional occupational therapy services and integrative and complementary practices engaging mind, body, emotion and spirit for a unique and enriching approach health and wellness. Integrative practices such as Transformative Touch (somatic therapy), Reiki, mindfulness meditation, breathwork, and guided meditation are provided as part of a comprehensive Occupational Therapy Plan of Care when indicated. These approaches are used to decrease the impact of conditions like anxiety, depression, PTSD and experiences of oppression that may limit therapy progress. Integrative practices drive a more person-centered treatment plan and often reveal the physical manifestations of past trauma. When illness or injury make it difficult to perform life roles, self care, mobility, or leisure and wellness activities, occupational therapy services are considered medically necessity and are covered by medical insurance.
Occupational therapy consists of a comprehensive evaluation of a client's strengths and challenges to determine a plan of care. The OT and client collaborate to set treatment goals and the treatment plan is carried out over a determined number of therapy sessions required to meet these goals. Treatment is provided using individualized activities and exercises that target the needs and interests of the client. Special attention is placed on determining personal interests that may contribute to the healing process. For example, if a client enjoys gardening as a hobby, treatment may center around gardening tasks using wrist weight and ergonomic tools for strengthening and endurance. Bending, standing, reaching and stooping while performing gardening can become the "exercise" that carries over to greater independence with bathing, dressing or grooming tasks impacted by an injury or illness. Other times, an individualized exercise plan may be created to strengthen and improve functional endurance for activities such as shopping, caregiving, housekeeping, walking the dog or other leisure activity that adds to the quality of life. Ultimately, it is the role of the occupational therapist to provide clients with the skills and tools needed to optimize independence, safety and ability to live a meaningful and productive life.
