Some Possible Signs of Sensory Integration/Processing Issues
Sensory integration happens when the brain uses information obtained from the seven senses (yes, seven!) to “make sense” of the world, by organizing how information is received and responding to it.
Therapy can improve a child’s sensory processing and increase confidence, self-esteem, social participation, self-regulation, and overall skill development.
Integrating and processing information from the tactile, proprioceptive, and vestibular systems, along with the other senses (sight,sound, taste, and smell), makes it possible to successfully participate in everyday activities.
Proprioception (body position) helps him know his body is in the correct position.
