Sensory integration

Sensory Integration is the name of a method which aims to help children to fill the deficit of sensory experience. The very experience that the environment of modern society does not give them. Children do not correctly interpret tactile, visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory and motor information, which leads to problems in behaviour, learning, speech, communication, muscle tone and coordination.

Sensory Integration Therapy is recommended for all children with delayed psycho-emotional development, children with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), especially those with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), who often have sensory processing disorders. Patients with cerebral palsy, Down’s syndrome, and children with visual and hearing impairments need regular SI sessions.

Absolutely all children need sensory experience, an adequate ability to process and integrate different types of sensory information, and the formation of adaptive responses.

What does therapy consist of?

Sensory integration classes are work through the body.

The method helps to improve praxis, from its simple manifestations – to pull his hand away from hot water, to more complex – to dress independently, learn to write, answer a question, plan a route.

Diagnostics specialists determine how the basic sensory systems work, check praxis – learning new skills and how to perform existing skills, talk to parents about how it affects the development and behaviour of the child. Help is formed to balance the sensory system and then help to develop the necessary skills.

Results are seen in different children at different times, some need only 5-6 appointments and others need a year or more.
