Occupational therapy (OT) at Florida Movement Therapy Centers focuses on helping adults perform daily tasks with greater independence. Our Boca Raton and Boynton Beach clinics provide hands-on therapy, dynamic exercises, manual techniques, and Rock Steady Boxing® to improve functional outcomes.
Evidence-Based Occupational Therapy Approaches
- Functional Independence Training
OT interventions target ADLs (activities of daily living), balance, strength, and mobility to help adults live independently. - Rock Steady Boxing® for Parkinson’s
Research shows Rock Steady Boxing® improves coordination, strength, and cognitive function in adults with Parkinson’s disease (Rock Steady Boxing Research, 2023). - Manual Therapy & Medical Massage
Hands-on manual therapy combined with medical massage can reduce stiffness, improve circulation, and enhance the effectiveness of functional exercises. - Dynamic Task-Based Exercises
Task-specific and functional exercises are incorporated into OT to target real-life challenges, such as reaching, bending, lifting, and balance.
