Biomechanical FOR
used to treat individuals with activity limitations due to impairments in biomechanical body structures and functions, including structural instability, decreased strength, limited ROM and poor endurance
the main tenet of the biomechanical approach is that occupational performance can be regfained through addressing underlying impairments that limit performance of activitiers
treatment focuses on preventing or decreasing impairments through the use of activity and exercise, which may be purposeful or rote
treatment modalities may not be inherently meaningful to the client, but focus on the ultimate goal of restoring the client's capability to engage in occupation
treatment in aimed at reducing biomechanical impairments, however goals must reflect expected improvement in occupational performance
