Occupational Therapy and Gross motor Skills
At the Therapy Stages Center, we understand the importance of gross motor skills in children’s lives and their significant impact on their independence and quality of life. Through our customized occupational therapy programs, we aim to develop and enhance children’s gross motor skills to achieve their full potential.
What are gross motor skills?
Gross motor skills include large movements that involve the use of large muscles in the body, such as walking, running, jumping, climbing, and throwing a ball. These basic skills help the child move effectively and participate in daily activities and sports.
The role of occupational therapy in developing gross motor skills
At the Therapy Stages Center, we offer specialized treatment programs to enhance and develop children’s gross motor skills, through:
Comprehensive assessment
We assess the child’s abilities in the areas of gross motor and identify the skills that need development.
Performing customized motor exercises
Based on the assessment, we provide exercises and movement activities specifically designed to enhance muscle strength, motor control, and coordination.
Parent guidance
We provide guidance and support to parents on how to support their children’s gross motor skills at home and outside.
