Conventionnal occupational therapy
Conventionnal occupational therapy at Sarah Bouchard, ergothérapeute, focuses on the management of musculoskeletal disorders affecting muscles, tendons, and nerves. Our approach is specifically designed to meet the needs of those who have experienced work-related accidents, road accidents, personal injuries, or are dealing with new or worsening pathologies.
Comprehensive evaluation: Our care begins with a thorough evaluation of physical,
functional, and occupational capacities, which helps us to understand in detail the
impact of the disorder on the client's life.
Personalized treatment plan: Based on this assessment, we develop a personalized
treatment plan. The goal is to restore, as much as possible, the person's pre-injury capacities
and functions, to facilitate a safe and sustainable return to work and daily activities.
Therapeutic objectives:
- Improvement of joint mobility, strength, endurance in effort and walking, tolerance to positions,
locomotor skills, postural hygiene, and functional and work capacities.
- Reduction of pain and functional limitations.
- Increase in autonomy in daily and professional life activities.
- Advice for preventing recurrence and managing chronic conditions.
Treatment Modalities: Our interventions include:
- Teaching principles of joint protection, postural hygiene, load handling, energy
management, and pain management.
- Personalized exercises to improve strength, effort endurance, tolerance to positions,
and joint mobility.
- Specific techniques for pain management.
- Use of adaptive equipment and technologies to facilitate daily activities.
- Task simulations and ergonomic advice for daily activities and the professional environment.
At Sarah Bouchard, ergothérapeute, we are committed to providing comprehensive and effective care to help you regain optimal function and improve your quality of life.
