Katie's Crib

What the Heck is Occupational Therapy?

Katie Lowes speaks with occupational therapist Marlene Handler about the role of these unsung heroes. Marlene outlines what all is involved within an OT’s typical work day, how insurance factors into the mix for patients, and success stories she’s seen up close with her students. Plus, Marlene discusses pelvic floor therapy and the alarming exchange with one doctor that motivated her to transition into this line of work.Crib Notes: www.marlenehandler.comWebsite: <a href="https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lifted-lotus.com%2F&amp;data=04%7C01%7CCasbyBias%40iheartmedia.com%7C0bd1d5982dd14a3ea49408d8a745568d%7C122a527e5b714eba878d9810b495b9e3%7C0%7C0%7C637443263541385169%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&amp;sdata=JMRm%2FsBbi%2Fxr0%2B8JlebZiKCtN7OgWJjiePAvlrGlofI%3D&amp;reserved=0">www.lifted-lotus.com</a>Email: <a href="mailto:marlene@lifted-lotus.com">marlene@lifted-lotus.com</a> Learn more about your ad-choices at <a href="https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com">https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com</a>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
