\n
\"\"<\/p>\n

A complement to medical treatments<\/h1>\n
Whether it is physical or psychological distress, occupational therapy can increase the response to medical treatments by acting directly on our lifestyle habits. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Occupational <\/h1>\n

therapy
<\/h1>\n

is not a cure.
<\/h1>\n
It is an active approach. Combined with a medical approach, occupational therapy can optimize the effectiveness of a treatment aimed at treating physical or psychological disorders. A preventive approach that aims to consult an occupational therapist on a regular basis is an effective strategy to avoid slipping into problems that are often predictable and that could affect our quality of life. <\/div>\n
