Hand therapy - supporting the development of a child’s fine motor skills

Online course description

Hand therapy has gained popularity in recent years. It is associated with improving the motility of small, precise movements of hands and fingers, but also with delivering sensory impressions by using a variety of textures and weights. Elements of hand therapies are also present in sensory integration therapy because it is impossible to separate motor development from sensory development.

The certificate we issue does not authorize any practice of a profession, it does not replace a university diploma or other documents required by law in order to practice the profession.
