Occupational Therapist

What is Occupational Therapist?

An Occupational Therapist is a healthcare professional who helps individuals achieve daily tasks through a holistic approach. The term “occupation” in occupational therapy refers to the ordinary activities that individuals do on a daily basis, both within the family and in the community. These everyday occupations give meaning to life and occupational therapists help individuals who need it to perform all the necessary tasks and activities of daily living.

Hello, my name is Teekay I am one of the trainers here at Optimal Care Australia. Fitness and sports have been my passion ever since I can remember from playing at such a young age to studying it and later becoming a lifestyle coach, throughout the journey I have learned so much about the industry, met people with so many different challenges and guided many to a transitional lifestyle. I am a enthusiastic trainer always wanting the best for you and will challenge your limits and throughout the process I am and will be by your side and monitoring your progress.

Meeting and coming across people with so many needs and requirements has benefited me in so many ways, including modifying my training methods, approaching every single of you differently and in appropriate manner and programming differently. As humans we develop differently but accordingly and throughout life we may encounter and in some instances be born with challenges, my job is work closely with you in attaining your goals, improving your health and life challenges.

Health and wellbeing are life factors that can be affected by challenges in life, such as lack of fitness and physical appearance. My aim is improving those factors by working with you to face those challenges and barriers.
