Occupational Therapy Phnom Penh: Building Confidence Through Everyday Skills

For many children, everyday tasks like writing, dressing, or playing with friends come naturally. For others, these activities require extra guidance and practice. Occupational therapy helps children develop these essential skills, so they can participate fully in life. In Phnom Penh, OrbRom Center provides expert therapy programs that empower children to grow and succeed.

Why Occupational Therapy Is Important for Children

Occupational therapy focuses on the skills that make everyday life easier and more enjoyable:

• Fine motor skills – Writing, drawing, using utensils, and buttoning clothes.

• Gross motor coordination – Running, climbing, balancing, and playing sports.

• Sensory processing – Understanding and managing reactions to sights, sounds, textures, and movement.

• Self-care abilities – Brushing teeth, feeding, and dressing independently.

These skills are crucial for school readiness, social interactions, and independence.
