Occupational therapy: what kinds of activities are being helped?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Upper Extremity: An occupational therapist works on disorders of the upper extremity only. You can think of them as a physical therapist that focuses only on the upper extremities, whereas a physical therapist can treat the entire body.
