Sensory Integration Therapy

The term “sensory integration” refers to the processing, integration, and organization of sensory information from the body and the environment.

Simply put, this means how we experience, interpret, and react to (or ignore) information coming from our senses. Sensory integration is important in all the things that we need to do on a daily basis, such as getting dressed, eating, moving around, socializing, learning, and working.

Sensory integration therapy is a program usually led by occupational therapists. An occupational therapist designs and implements an individual program of sensory experiences for the child.
