Naturante

Naturante is an occupational therapy and integrative care practice in Botafogo, Rio de Janeiro, focused on supporting the autonomy, development, and well-being of children and adolescents. Guided by the belief that each person has an individual capacity for growth, the practice combines occupational therapy with complementary approaches and works in partnership with families, schools, caregivers, and other professionals.

Services include pediatric and adolescent occupational therapy to develop motor, cognitive, social, and self-care skills; sensory integration support for challenges affecting learning, behavior, or coordination; and neurodevelopmental rehabilitation using the Bobath Concept to support movement, posture, and everyday function. Naturante also offers guidance for parents and caregivers, school consultations to foster inclusion and adaptation, and integrated practices tailored to each person’s needs.

The team is led by occupational therapists Sarah Rodrigues and Caroline Rosa, whose training includes neurorehabilitation, sensory processing, Ayres Sensory Integration, child development, and feeding selectivity. Naturante welcomes families seeking individualized care and collaboration around a child’s development.
