🧩 A puzzle here, a little colouring there! 🎨 Who knew everyday activities could support so many skills?

Puzzles and colouring are more than just relaxing ways to pass the time. They're also activities occupational therapists may use to help support:

🧠 Focus and concentration: Staying engaged with a task

✋ Fine motor skills: Practicing controlled hand and finger movements

👀 Visual perception: Recognizing shapes, patterns, and details

🤝 Hand-eye coordination: Helping your eyes and hands work together

🎨 Creativity and problem-solving: Exploring different approaches and finding solutions

Occupational therapy focuses on helping people participate in the everyday activities that matter to them, and sometimes, that can involve something as simple as a puzzle or colouring!

Want to give these activities a try at home? Grab a puzzle or your favourite colouring book and spend a few minutes doing something that's both enjoyable and engaging.

💬 Are you team puzzles 🧩 or team colouring 🎨? Let us know in the comments!

Maybe you take the longer route to avoid the highway. You wait until traffic is lighter. Or you let someone else drive because certain trips make you anxious.

Driving anxiety can quietly start shaping where you go and how you get there.

Occupational therapy can help you understand what may be keeping that anxiety going and gradually work toward the driving or passenger situations that matter in your everyday life.

Bloating or constipation this Thanksgiving? 🦃 Gentle abdominal massage may help you feel more comfortable.

Our manual osteopath Katie Stanley demonstrates the ILU massage, also called the “I Love You” massage. Its strokes follow the path of your large intestine and may help gas and stool move along.

This self-massage technique may ease constipation and related bloating or gas discomfort. 👀 Watch the demonstration and save it to revisit later.

Wait a few hours after a large meal. Use gentle pressure and stop if it hurts. ⚠️ Check with a clinician first if you’re pregnant, have had recent abdominal surgery, or have a bowel condition or abdominal hernia. This video is for general education only. Seek medical advice for ongoing symptoms.

When your vestibular and visual systems are not working together as well as they should, everyday movement can feel more challenging. Turning your head while walking, looking around a busy store, reading signs while moving, or changing direction quickly may bring on dizziness or unsteadiness.

The exercises demonstrated in this video are examples of gaze stabilization, convergence, and eye-head coordination work that may be used in vestibular rehabilitation. The goal is to gradually help your brain make better use of the information coming from your eyes, inner ear, and body as you move.

A vestibular therapist can assess what may be contributing to your symptoms and choose exercises that match your needs, tolerance, and goals.

⚠️ These exercises may not be appropriate for every cause of dizziness or vertigo. Speak with a vestibular therapist before starting.

Knee pain can have a way of showing up after a longer walk, a workout, or a busy day on your feet.

Topical menthol may provide temporary relief from minor knee pain by creating a cooling sensation that changes how discomfort feels. Learn when menthol may be helpful, how it compares with ice and heat, and how it can support your physiotherapy and knee rehabilitation plan. 👇

You’ve been working hard with your physiotherapist and starting to see real progress for your knee pain. But every time you push a little harder—a longer walk, a busier day at work, a return to your favourite sport or activity—the soreness in your knee creeps back in. Between sessions, you wan...

That pain, tingling, or numbness that seems to travel from your lower back or buttock down your leg? It may be sciatica.

Nerve flossing is one gentle exercise a physiotherapist may use to help manage these nerve-related symptoms for some people.

If symptoms are sticking around or getting in the way of your day, a physiotherapist can assess what may be contributing and help you find the right approach. Find a clinic near you 👉 https://bit.ly/4yc29fY

⚠️ This exercise is for general education only. Stop if symptoms worsen and speak with a healthcare professional if you have concerns.
