Sensory Diets And Sensory Gyms: Effective Treatments For Sensory Processing Disorder
Sensory processing disorder (SPD) is a condition of childhood that is characterized by either over or under reacting to the information provided by the senses and/or integrating the information in a useful manner. Although sensory processing deficits are often symptoms of other childhood disorders, like autism, they can occur in children who appear to have no other developmental delays or problems. However, this disorder can cause extreme disruption in a child's life and make it difficult if not impossible for them to enjoy normal, everyday activities.
