Occupational Therapy: Occupational therapists help address eye-hand coordination hand skills, play skills, self-care adapted skills such as feeding and dressing, and sensory processing including tolerance for touch and movement.
Physical Therapy: Physical therapists are concerned with a child's gross motor skills and achievement of developmental milestones. Some developmental milestones include lifting the chest off the ground while lying on the stomach, rolling over, sitting, creeping on hands and knees, walking, etc.
Speech Therapy: Speech-language pathologists are concerned with how a child understands his world and learning to interact and communicate with others. They may assess a variety of areas such as expressive communication (e.g. use of gestures, sounds, words, sentences, etc.), receptive language (understanding of what is said), articulation (sound production), voice (pitch, quality), and fluency (flow of words).
