A  specialized, team-based approach to Neuro Care

Plan of Care

Neurological rehabilitation demands consistent effort and dedication to yield significant results. At Buffalo Occupational Therapy, we emphasize the importance of regular sessions to achieve optimal outcomes. Based on evidence, participants are encouraged to commit to 2-3 therapy sessions per week for a minimum duration of 8-12 weeks. This time frame allows for the manifestation of motor performance improvements, which are indicative of the initial stages of true learning. However, sustained progress and lasting benefits require continued engagement over time. We prioritize your journey to enhanced neurological function and urge you to embark on this path with dedication and perseverance.

Occupational therapists seek to maximize independence to keep you living in the place of your choice.

Cognitive Therapy and Dual Tasking

Buffalo Occupational Therapy has a special focus in neuroanatomy and what each area of the brain controls in terms of information processing, functional performance, and executing gross mobility. Where many other practices only work on mobility or only work on cognition, Buffalo OT is the only practice in Western New York, addressing both needs in one plan of care. Dual tasking and cognitive therapy is an area BOT feels very confident in addressing as we have seen amazing therapy outcomes.
