Sensory Integration

Sensory Integration is a form of occupational therapy in which special exercises are used to strengthen the patient’s sense of touch (tactile), sense of balance (vestibular), and sense of where the body and its parts are in space (proprioceptive). It appears to be effective for helping patients with movement disorders or severe under- or over-sensitivity to sensory input.

Sensory Processing involves the maturing of the five familiar senses: hearing, smell, taste, touch, and vision. It involves the way your child’s nervous system receives input from these senses and then forms an appropriate motor or behavioral response, also known as sensory processing.
