Sensory Stimulation Therapy

Helping Children Understand and Respond to the World Around Them

🧠 What is Sensory Stimulation?

Sensory stimulation therapy helps children who have difficulty processing and responding to sensory input—such as touch, sound, light, taste, smell, or movement. Many children with autism and special needs face sensory processing issues, making them either over-sensitive (hypersensitive) or under-sensitive (hyposensitive) to certain sensations.

👁️👂🖐️ Types of Sensory Systems We Work With

Tactile (Touch)

• Soft brushes, textured objects, sand, and water play
• Activities to reduce touch defensiveness

Visual (Sight)

• Light panels, color tracking, visual focus games
• Light/dark room exposure for calming

Auditory (Sound)

• Soft music, rhythmic clapping, sound matching games
• Noise tolerance therapy with headphones or calming sounds

Olfactory & Gustatory (Smell & Taste)

• Aroma therapy (safe, mild scents)
• Exposure to different food textures and flavors (links with feeding therapy)

Vestibular (Balance & Movement)

• Swings, rocking chairs, spinning boards
• Helps regulate alertness, body control, and movement

Proprioceptive (Body Awareness)

• Heavy work activities (pushing, pulling, jumping)
