As a retired occupational therapist, I'll just chime in to say that O.T. might be of assistance, not in resolving the underlying problem, but in adapting to functional limitations. An O.T would first try to find alternate ways of accomplishing tasks, and if that's not possible, look into adaptive devices to substitute for lost physical functions.
