🧠✨ Strengthening memory one shape at a time!

In this occupational therapy session, we’re working on visual memory, attention, and spatial awareness using a simple shape-building activity. First, the client studies the image… then it disappears! The challenge? Rebuild it from memory.

Activities like this help support everyday skills such as following directions, organizing tasks, and improving focus.

Small exercises. Big progress. 💛

Cancer recovery isn’t just physical — it’s cognitive too. 🧠✨

After treatment, many individuals experience challenges with memory, attention, processing speed, and mental fatigue (often called “chemo brain”).

At SMM, we help clients rebuild cognitive skills so they can return to work, manage daily tasks, stay organized, and feel confident in their routines again.

Through personalized strategies, brain-training activities, energy conservation techniques, and real-life task practice, we support meaningful recovery — not just survival, but independence.

Recovery is about regaining your life, one skill at a time. 💛

Cancer doesn’t only affect the body — it affects daily life.
Many individuals experience reduced mobility, low endurance, and difficulty with self-care activities like dressing, bathing, and meal preparation during and after treatment.

🧠 As Occupational Therapists, we focus on:
• Conserving energy and building endurance safely
• Improving mobility for everyday tasks
• Adapting self-care activities to promote independence
• Supporting confidence and quality of life

Small, meaningful goals can make daily activities possible again.
Function, dignity, and independence always matter. 💛

Cancer treatment can change how everyday tasks feel — and that’s where Occupational Therapy steps in 💚

OT supports people living with cancer by helping them dress independently, adapt clothing routines, and use energy conservation strategies to reduce fatigue. Small changes like pacing, positioning, and simplifying tasks can make a big difference in confidence and daily comfort.

Because cancer care isn’t just about treatment — it’s about living well, every day. 🎗️

Hand Strength = Everyday Independence 💪

Hand strengthening is a core part of occupational therapy, supporting the skills we use every day — gripping, writing, dressing, and working. By targeting grip and pinch strength, intrinsic hand muscles, wrist stability, and endurance, purposeful exercises help improve control, reduce fatigue, and build confidence in daily tasks.

✨ Stronger hands lead to better function and greater independence.
