Occupational Therapy Phnom Penh: Helping Children Achieve Independence and Confidence

At OrbRom Center in Phnom Penh, our occupational therapy services are dedicated to helping children build the skills they need to succeed in everyday life. Whether it’s improving handwriting, developing balance, or learning self-care routines, our therapists work closely with families to ensure lasting progress.

How Occupational Therapy Supports Child Development

Occupational therapy (OT) focuses on practical skills that allow children to participate fully in home, school, and community life. This includes:

• Fine motor skills – for writing, drawing, and handling small objects

• Gross motor skills – for running, jumping, balancing, and coordination

• Sensory processing – for managing how the body reacts to sounds, textures, lights, and movement

• Daily living skills – for dressing, feeding, brushing teeth, and self-care independence

• Social participation – for working with peers, sharing, and following group routines

When children master these skills, they gain confidence and independence in all areas of life.

Signs That Occupational Therapy May Be Needed

You might consider an occupational therapy assessment if your child:

• Has difficulty writing or holding a pencil correctly

• Avoids physical activities or sports

• Struggles with balance, coordination, or strength

• Is sensitive to certain textures, sounds, or lights

• Has trouble focusing on tasks at school

• Takes a long time to complete self-care routines

Activities may include:

• Balance beams, climbing, and jumping games for coordination

• Bead threading, cutting, and art projects for fine motor skills

• Sensory play with different textures for regulation
