Experienced ergotherapist in Riga at NeiroMed Clinic, 8b Gunara Astras Street
An ergotherapist at NeiroMed clinic helps improve daily functions, overcome life difficulties and promote independence to improve quality of life in every age and situation.
When should an ergotherapist's help be sought?
- – recovery after injury, stroke or other illness affecting movement or daily function.
- difficulties or restrictions on day-to-day work – eating, dressing, hygiene, chores.

- adaptation of the environment, such as your home or working environment, to suit your health limitations and needs.
The aim of an ergotherapist is to provide practical skills and adapt the environment to maximise your self-sufficiency and well-being.
How do I prepare for a visit?
- Record your main problems and therapy goals.
- Consider what activities are difficult for you daily.
- If there are excerpts of previous examinations or treatments, take them with you.
- Visual examples or videos of your day-to-day activities, in which you are experiencing difficulties, will also be helpful.
How is the ergotherapist's consultation at NeiroMed clinic going?
Analysis of history and daily activities – an ergotherapist learns your history and the environment you live in.
Carries out a functionality assessment and, if necessary, provides observations or comments.
Develops an individual plan containing:
- practical techniques and skills for day-to-day activities,
- adaptation of a healthy and safe environment at home or in the workplace,
- recommendations for ergonomic and adjusted solutions to facilitate difficult day-to-day operations,
- complex therapy or advice to support a patient’s family or carers.
Our approach is empathetic, practical and focused on improving your independence and quality of life.
