SENSORY INTEGRATION DISORDERS
Printer Friendly

It has been well documented that there is now an epidemic increase in the neurological phenomenon known as “Autistic Spectrum Disorders”.  Since the early 1970’s, there has been a jump of more than 15% in the number of children diagnosed with such disorders.

What is a “Sensory Integration Disorder”?
“Sensory Integration Disorder” was a term first coined by occupational and physical therapists who treated large numbers
of children with “Autism”. It describes an inability to integrate
or coordinate the senses of perception and balance in a
concerted effort. 

Almost all disorders in this category are related to abnormal or fluctuant function of three primary senses:

    1. The musculo skeletal system (touch and feel)
    2. The eyes (visual system)
    3. The inner ear (vestibular system)

Normal and stable function of these primary senses are required for the correct function of the brain.  Abnormal function of these systems will lead to a slowing of all cognitive and reflex functions and cause fluctuations of behavior, mood and activity level.
