166 sensory integration SENSORY INTEGRATION helping with balance and spacial awareness Sensory Integration is the neurological process that organizes sensation from one’s own body and the environment and makes it possible to use the body e ectively within that environment. It enables us to combine sensory input with previously learnt information, memories and knowledge, and make a meaningful response. Sensory Integration is central to learning and development, occurring subconsciously with little e ort in typically functioning individuals. It leads to the development of body awareness, movement sequencing and planning, and appropriate meaningful responses. But many children and adults have not developed ecient processing of sensory information and, as a result, find it dicult to engage in e ective environmental and social interactions. This may be diagnosed as a sensory processing disorder, commonly associated with Autistic Spectrum Disorders, motor coordination, or attention and learning disabilities. Sensory Integration treatment is client led, play based, and takes place in a conducive environment where the individual develops and gains confidence, leading to neurological change and adaptive responses. Therapy is an active process between the individual, the environment and a trained therapist. BODY ROLLER The Body Roller provides deep pressure therapy as a child crawls between the rollers.
