"Sensory integration is the ability to organize sensory information for use... that enables man to interact effectively with the environment" (Ayers)
We constantly receive sensory information (vision, auditory, tactile etc.), and then the brain interprets it and turns it into appropriate motor and behavioral responses. When the information is not appropriately perceived or organized, it causes us movement, behavioral and functional difficulties. Please refer to Sings of SPD.

A boy who lived across the street from my house had muscle dystrophy. We were born on the same day. I’d like to do "something" for him, but I did not know how and I felt frustrated. It is natural for me to choose occupational therapy as my profession. Learning how to do “something” is my passion and I keep and will keep pursuing up-to-date skills and knowledge to provide better therapy.
