Introduction[edit | edit source]

Sensory integration is also known as sensory processing and it is brain's ability to recognise and to respond to signals sent by our senses. These senses include hearing, vision, smell, taste, touch, proprioception, and vestibular. Sensory integration plays a significant role in the development and maintenance of social-emotional, motor, cognitive, adaptive, and other skills.[1] It impacts the child's participation in daily activities, school activities, and more. When the brain is challenged with the processing of these various sensory stimuli, the child may be diagnosed with a condition called sensory processing disorder or sensory integration dysfunction. It is a "failure to modulate the effects of incoming sensory inputs"[2]with a child demonstrating hypo- or hyper-sensitivities to sensory inputs. The child's obstructed processing and response to sensory information leads to the child's daily activities limitations. This article discusses sensory integration, sensory integration dysfunction and sensory integration therapy in children with cerebral palsy.

Sensation[edit | edit source]

Sensory Integration[edit | edit source]

Sensory integration "is the potential to develop adequate motor and behavioural reactions to stimulus"--Ayres

The input from the senses is received, organised and interpreted to create a reaction appropriate to the type of stimulation received. This is called sensory processing.

Sensory Integration Dysfunction[edit | edit source]

Sensory Integration Disorder is "difficulty detecting, modulating, interpreting, and/or responding to sensory inputs, which is severe enough to disrupt participation in everyday living activities and routines, as well as learning."[3]
