SENSORY Integration

Sensory Integration is our ability to take in information through our senses (touch, movement, smell, taste, vision, and hearing), organize and interpret that information, and make a meaningful response. For most people, this process is automatic but many children with developmental delays have sensory issues.  Sensory drives the motor output so it is important to address both -sensory based therapies which involve activities that help to organize the sensory system.  These include tactile, vestibular, proprioceptive, auditory and visual.  Such activities include swings, balls, sensory feeling toys
