About sensory processing disorders

Simply put, sensory processing disorders (SPD) is "a condition in which the brain has trouble receiving and responding to information that comes in through the senses."

Formerly referred to as sensory integration dysfunction, it is not currently recognized as a distinct medical diagnosis.

Challenges of sensory processing disorders

Sensory processing disorders can be described as a "traffic jam" occurring in the brain.  These road blocks restrict the proper integration between various sensory organs. Adults or children with SPD might be oversensitive to input from the environment and find such things as light and sound overwhelming. They might struggle with coordination and spacial awareness. Muscles/joints and motor skills might be effected. Plus, sensory processing disorders often exist with other conditions such as:

• Autism spectrum disorder
• ADHD
• Language/learning disorders
• Genetic disorders​

Parents are faced with many challenges helping their children with sensory processing disorders which are as varied as each child.
