Sensory Integration Therapy

Sensory integration therapy focuses on supporting children who struggle with sensory processing difficulties. 

Occupational therapists help children develop appropriate responses to sensory input, such as touch, movement, taste, and sound. Through carefully designed activities, therapists help children regulate their responses, leading to improved attention, behavior, and overall function.

The potential benefits of sensory play for the cognitive, linguistic, visual, social and emotional development of a child are endless. It encourages a healthy exploration of their surroundings.

 

Conflicting senses such as sounds, sights and smells can occasionally overwhelm them, which is why sensory play has a role in developing focus. Engaging with outdoor sensory playground equipment is also crucial and highly beneficial for a child’s social and language development. Sensory play fosters an inquisitive way of behaving, something that should always be encouraged both on the playground and at home.
