OT Practices Areas
Fine Motor
Fine motor skills refer to precision, dexterity, and coordination of the hands. These are the skills that allow us to use our hands to manipulate materials like pencils, containers, clothing fasteners, and little objects. Areas of development like bilateral coordination, pinch and grip strength, separation of the sides of the hand, arch development, finger isolation, thumb web space, and opposition all play a role in refined use of the fingers and hands.
Gross Motor
Gross motor skills are vital for movement of one’s entire body. They affect the core areas of the body that are responsible for functions such as hand-eye coordination (involving catching, throwing etc), walking, running, skipping, sitting and standing. Gross motor skills also directly influence fine motor skills (e.g. adequate upper body support strength can affect ability to sit upright at a table or carrying a school bag), and is elemental for children to optimally perform and engage at school, home or other social and recreational activities.
Visual Motor
Visual motor skills allow us to take in visual information, process it, and use it to complete motor actions. Most of the time, this collection of information and interpretation happens without us even realizing it!
Sensory Integration
Well-regulated and appropriately functioning sensory systems contribute to important outcomes in the development of social-emotional, physical and motor, communication, self-care, cognitive, and adaptive skills.
Self-Care
Self-care skills, also known as activities of daily living (ADLs), play a crucial role in a child’s overall development. These include dressing, feeding, toileting, sleeping, grooming, and personal hygiene.
Handwriting Skills
How you use your fingers, hand, and arm to write words on paper.
