Occupational Therapy

Our Service Details

Occupational therapy (OT) is a subspeciality of health care that empowers children of all ages who have physical, sensory, or cognitive difficulties. OT can assist them in regaining independence in every aspect of their lives. Occupational therapists assist with obstacles that disrupt an individual's social, emotional, and functional needs.

We administer standardised tests like BOT-2 that measure fine and gross motor proficiency, with subtests that focus on stability, mobility, strength, coordination, and object manipulation. The test is tailored to school-aged children and young adults among the ages of 4-21 years, who have varying motor control abilities ranging from normal to mild or moderate and SPM (Sensory Processing Measure) which is the measure of function in the visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, gustatory, proprioceptive (body awareness), and vestibular (balance and motion) sensory systems, as well as praxis and social participation..

Frequently Asked Questions

If you are unsure of whether your child would benefit from therapy, we would recommend calling us at 9004053414 or 9892283414.
We also offer a free 15-20 minute consultation & visit to the Centre where you can see the physical setup & talk to one of our therapists about your concerns. The therapist will ask questions about your child's development, briefly address any concerns you may have and recommend the next step forward.

It is called Occupational Therapy as it helps a child perform what is appropriate for their age or life stage, ie. their 'occupation'. For example, a baby's occupation is to eat, play, sleep, crawl & walk. Older children will be occupied with tasks such as writing, typing, focusing on schoolwork & participating in extracurricular activities.
Occupation therapy helps especially when difficulties with things like strength, coordination, dexterity, attention or sensory issues prevent a child from independently performing 'occupational' activities for their age.

Not every child who shows a delay of some kind requires early intervention, but if a child needs intervention it's important to start as soon as possible. Because every life skill builds on the one before it, waiting will cause any gaps in development to grow and it could take a lot more time & therapy to close the gap.

Absolutely not. Speech therapy is broken up into 2 parts - which is typical speech therapy & language therapy. Typical Speech Therapy is used to help develop sounds & vocabulary of the child, while language therapy helps develop higher order language skills, listening comprehension & reading comprehension. So there is no age limit - our job is to help the child reach an age appropriate level of speech & language.

Feeding therapy uses a play-based, child-directed exploratory feeding approach to increasing a child's palette. Our therapy helps reduce the stress & anxiety around feeding for our children & their families. This helps overcome the struggles of meal time - which restrict family & social dinner gatherings & even school lunch breaks.

Tutions are extra classes for supplementing regular school education while remedial education is specifically focused towards overcoming individual learning challenges or needs of a child. As just one example, a regular tution teacher would not be able to deal with focus issues or a lack of motivation towards learning, but our remedial teachers specifically build visual, play-based teaching programs to help overcome the same.

Multidisciplinary therapy is effectively working in collaboration between all therapy departments, leading to quicker diagnoses & solutions. This holistic approach offers versatility and real world problem solving.

An evaluation allows the therapist the opportunity to assess your child's development and set a baseline for measuring future progress. This assessment may include a standardised test, observation through play, medical history information and / or parent report. The evaluation is necessary to see what type of therapy is necessary & to determine the frequency of the therapy.

Yes. Once an evaluation has been scheduled, our office will ask you to fill out the online client registration form before arriving which asks for a brief history of the child. You can also share any previous therapy reports if you have any by e-mail or whatsapp.

We provide pediatric services for children from 6 months to 18 years old.

Yes. The Power Learning Centre believes that a collaborative & multidisciplinary effort between the child, their family & the centre helps to achieve results & reach a high level of success. Treatment of children with autism and working closely with their families is one of our specialities.

Parents are a very important part of our functioning and are often invited into the therapy rooms to observe sessions. Furthermore, parent education is an integral part of every therapy session. Small home programs are also provided to the parent to increase carryover in all settings and help the child be more successful in reaching their goals.
