Introduction:

Occupational activities are some of the most powerful tools in rehabilitation and for compensating for occupational dysfunction. For many years, occupational therapy has been used as a method of recuperating and improving both cognitive and physical skills. Its ultimate goal is to help individuals regain the greatest degree of independence possible when carrying out activities in daily life, as well as to help them stay healthy by taking their surroundings and interests into account.
