At Bambini Health, our therapists have many hours of experience delivering therapy services online (thanks to the pandemic!) and we have seen the many benefits to online therapy services. We wanted to talk more about how online therapy works and what you can expect.
We are fortunate enough to have technology to support access to therapy no matter where you are or what your situation may be! This has been revolutionary for rural families, people with chronic medical conditions or even just creating ease of service where you can complete therapy from the comfort of your own home (hello pyjamas!).
Speech Pathology and Occupational Therapy services can be completed via online platforms through the use of various softwares such as Zoom, Google meet and more! Your child (and family) will be working with your therapist on your same goals, just with a computer screen between you. This makes it easier for parents to get involved, which is a huge asset because it allows you to carry over what you have worked on in therapy sessions at home, which will get greater outcomes (repetition, repetition, repetition!). It allows you to use resources within your home, which also helps with homework and generalising skills. Our therapists love being innovative about different ways to engage your child in online therapy and we find many of our bambini (children!) love being able to use technology for therapy!
Online therapy is becoming quite popular as it has proven itself to be just as effective as in-person therapy. It has benefits of being more convenient, increasing parent involvement and gives more access to families in rural areas. It is also very helpful for those struggling with other health or mobility difficulties.
We love being creative to help our families access therapy and support in the easiest and best way for their needs! Reach out if you wish to chat more about online therapy services or to find out more about our speech and occupational therapy services!
