Ergotherapy is aimed at promoting the assimilation and processing of sensory stimuli. Disturbed planning of movements, the three-dimensional perception in movements, the co-ordination of the hands with each other and with the eyes are brought closer to normality. This is also supported by suitable aids (splints, aids that facilitate everyday activities, etc.). Further aims are the fine motoricity of the hands and the initiation of non-verbal communication in non-speaking patients.

Ergotherapy is so popular with the patients, especially the children, because the treatment goal is often achieved with handwork projects.

We work on the principle of the following treatment techniques:

• Bobath concept
• Affolter concept
• Castillo-Morales
• Perfetti concept
• Basal stimulation
• Sensory integration
