Sensory Integration Therapy
Sensory integration therapy is used to help children learn to use all their senses together – that is,
touch, smell, taste, sight and hearing.
The three primary sensory systems are the tactile system (our ability to touch something and comprehend it,
including the sense of pain and temperature), the vestibular system (located in the inner ear and involved
in balance, equilibrium, postural control, muscle tone and eye-hand coordination) and the proprioceptive
system (involved in determining spatial relationships with our body and the world around us).
It has been proved and that the trained occupational therapist can improve challenging behavior or
repetitive behavior.
