Occupational Therapy for Physical Dysfunction Handbook is a practical and comprehensive guide to the assessment and rehabilitation of people experiencing physical, neurological, musculoskeletal, cognitive, and functional limitations. It explains how occupational therapists evaluate movement, strength, sensation, pain, cognition, daily activities, environmental barriers, and participation in order to develop individualized treatment plans.
The handbook covers therapeutic exercise, motor learning, pain management, cognitive rehabilitation, assistive technology, adaptive equipment, seating and positioning, splinting, environmental modification, and community reintegration. It also addresses major rehabilitation populations, including people recovering from stroke, functional neurological disorders, chronic musculoskeletal conditions, pelvic-floor dysfunction, aging-related functional decline, multimorbidity, and intellectual or developmental disability.
Designed for occupational therapy students, clinicians, rehabilitation professionals, and other healthcare practitioners, the book emphasizes patient-centered care, evidence-informed clinical reasoning, safety, autonomy, interprofessional collaboration, and meaningful participation in everyday life. It provides readers with a clear clinical foundation for helping patients improve independence, restore function, adapt to disability, and maintain long-term participation at home, work, and in the community.
