Occupational therapy is the service for acquiring or practicing skills necessary to complete tasks in daily life or work. Those individuals who have difficulty with daily tasks, including eating meals, changing clothes, or going to bathroom, usually receive occupational therapy. Occupational therapist not only provides rehabilitation therapy, but also adjusts a client's environment.
