What is Occupational Therapy
 DO YOU KNOW HOW IT FEELS WHEN YOUR ARM GOES TO SLEEP?

Recovering from an injury or illness often requires relearning to do many of the things that we take for granted; like brushing our teeth, dressing, and feeding ourselves.
Jack is recovering from a stroke. Occupational Therapists help people, like Jack, regain as much independence as possible. For more information on how to improve the quality of life for those with a disability, ask your doctor about a referral to an occupational therapist, or contact the Georgia Occupational Therapy Association.
