Occupational Therapy : A Glimpse of Its Future

On July 26, 2004 I had the privilege of giving a talk entitled Occupational Therapy: A Glimpse of It's Future to the faculty and students of the Graduate School of Health Sciences, Hiroshima University. My objectives were to explore the possible future of occupational therapy. I explained the concept of neuro-occupation first discussed at Crieghton University, discussed constraint-induced movement treatment, and explored the neurological foundations of occupational performance. The following is a summary of that presentation.
