At OrbRom Center in Phnom Penh, our occupational therapy programs help children develop the skills they need to succeed at home, in school, and in the community. Whether it’s improving motor coordination, managing sensory input, or mastering daily routines, our therapists create customized plans to support each child’s growth.
Why Occupational Therapy Is Important
Occupational therapy (OT) focuses on helping children participate fully in daily life by improving:
-
Fine motor skills – writing, cutting, buttoning, and tying shoelaces
-
Gross motor skills – balancing, climbing, running, and jumping
-
Sensory processing – understanding and responding to sensory input such as textures, lights, and sounds
-
Self-care skills – dressing, feeding, brushing teeth, and other daily tasks
-
Social skills – sharing, playing with others, and following group routines
These skills are the building blocks for confidence, independence, and learning.
When to Consider Occupational Therapy
An occupational therapy assessment may be recommended if your child:
-
Has difficulty with handwriting or other fine motor tasks
-
Struggles with coordination, balance, or sports activities
-
Reacts strongly to certain textures, sounds, or lights
-
Has trouble focusing on tasks at school
-
Is slow to complete daily routines
-
Avoids certain activities that involve movement or touch
