The practice of occupational therapy means the therapeutic use of occupations, including everyday life activities with individuals, groups, populations, or organizations to support participation, performance, and function in roles and situations in home, school, workplace, community, and other settings. Occupational therapy services are provided for habilitation, rehabilitation, and the promotion of health and wellness to those who have or are at risk for developing an illness, injury, disease, disorder, condition, impairment, disability, activity limitation, or participation restriction. Occupational therapy addresses the physical, cognitive, psychosocial, sensory-perceptual, and other aspects of performance in a variety of contexts and environments to support engagement in occupations that affect physical and mental health, well-being, and quality of life.

Occupational Therapy practitioners develop interventions based on assessment of client’s occupations (Sensorimotor ability) in which he/ she engages, understanding of his/ her natural (socio-cultural) contexts and analysis of performance.

Occupational Therapists identify the difference between the child’s performance and activity demands, finally interpreting how to overcome or minimize those differences. The intervention plan thus set with the child’s/ caregiver’s/ organization’s felt needs, is then applied using individualized, group and integrated services. We use evidence based practice and clinical reasoning using the professional knowledge and standard ethics of practice set by AIOTA (All India Occupational Therapy Association)/ WFOT (World Federation of Occupational Therapy).
