Physical Therapy
Physical therapists (PTs) provide services that help restore function,
improve mobility, relieve pain, and prevent or limit permanent physical
disabilities of patients suffering from injuries or disease. They restore,
maintain, and promote overall fitness and health.

Occupational Therapy
Occupational
therapists (OTs) help people improve their ability to perform tasks in
their daily living and working environments. They work with individuals who
have conditions that are mentally, physically, developmentally, or
emotionally disabling. They also help them to develop, recover, or maintain
daily living and work skills. Occupational therapists not only help clients
improve basic motor functions and reasoning abilities, but also compensate
for permanent loss of function. Their goal is to help clients have
independent, productive, and satisfying lives.
