If you notice that your child has trouble interacting with others or managing their emotions, or may have developmental delays, occupational therapy may be right for them. However, every child is different, so we recommend contacting with us.

SOS Nutrition Therapy
In the SOS Nutrition Therapy Approach, the feeding problem is conceptualized as the tip of an iceberg. A child’s difficulty with eating and weight gain is something everyone sees, but similar to an iceberg, it is what is under the water that hits the boat. SOS Nutrition Approach stands for Sequential-Oral-Sensory, these are the main components of the program. But SOS also stands for Save Our Ship! In the SOS Approach to Nutrition, we assess and address all the underlying (‘underwater’) causes of feeding difficulties.
SOS uses an interdisciplinary perspective to assess and treat the whole child, including
- Organ systems
- Muscles (including oral motor)
- Sensory processing
- Learning, behavior and cognition
- Development
- Nutrition
- Environment

What are the outcomes?
What should you expect from Zatay Health specialization?
Let's explore together your child's strengths and areas that need strengthening. We encourage you to use our Program Matching Tool and identify options based on what your child is experiencing.
Once you register your child for our program, they attend weekly sessions with our therapists. Our evidence-based play and therapy approaches address a variety of conditions including Developmental Coordination Disorder (Dyspraxia), Autism, Anxiety, Motor Development Delays, Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder, and Neuropsychiatric and Genetic conditions.
We plan the process together from the beginning to the end and monitor the development through our interdisciplinary work. Their skills and the goals we set will continue to develop over time. Growing up is a painful path, so we attach great importance to periodic follow-ups throughout development.

Frequently Asked Questions
If my child has special needs, can he/she also participate in Therapeutic Hammock (Aerial) Yoga classes?
There are specific behavioral goals that a child must meet in an aerial yoga class in order for each student and staff member to have a safe and beneficial experience. Depending on your child's specific needs, they may need to remain in occupational therapy until their behavior meets the required expectations.
How is the initial evaluation process done?
The initial assessment measures problem behaviors, adaptive skills, sensory processing and executive functioning. When you book an assessment, we will ask you to complete an intake form. Once your form has been received and reviewed, we will contact you via email for insurance verification and proceed with the assessment. This assessment will be a comprehensive assessment consisting of standardized tests, observations, reflex assessment and parent report measures. A meeting will then be scheduled for a full review of our findings.
