Importance of san diego occupational therapist

In a child's development, there may be problems
that are not as obvious as a broken bone or the
presence of an altered postural tone, but they
are just as disabling. One of them is sensory
processing dysfunction, a problem related to an
inadequate integration of internal and external
sensations in the brain. It can cause cognitively
bright children not to be able to learn to ride a
bicycle. Children who live in an environment
rich in stimuli and with exemplary parents have
significant behavior problems. In other words,
sensory integration problems are not always
obvious. Still, they are severe due to the
critical repercussions that these will have on
the child's participation in the different
activities of their daily life.

The san diego occupational therapy will include
activities that provide vestibular (balance and
body movements), proprioceptive (receptors that
perceive the position of the muscles, pressure,
temperature ), and tactile stimulation and are
designed for the specific developmental needs of
each child. The pediatric occupational therapy
san diego will also be designed by gradually
increasing the demands on the child to achieve
increasingly mature and organized responses. The
emphasis is on automatic sensory processes that
occur during goal-directed activities, rather
than on instructions or exercises with the child
about how to respond.

An essential aspect of therapy using the sensory
integration approach is children's motivation,
which plays a crucial role in selecting
activities.  At every stage of their development,
most children tend to seek activities that
provide them with beneficial sensory experiences.
This is an important clue for us, as therapists,
to know the interests and motivations of children
that will help us to guide the selection of
activities.

What to expect from therapy
When pediatric occupational therapy san diego is
successful, the child can process complex sensory
information more efficiently than before. This
can have significant benefits. For example, an
improvement in motor Coordination can be
documented by the child's ability to more skill
fully perform gross and fine motor tasks at a
level of complexity that would not be Expected
to be achieved without intervention.

For the child who initially presented problems of
hypo or hyper response to sensory stimulation
(continuous search for movement, constant
stumbling, aggressiveness in the face of physical
contact ). Having more normal responses can lead
him to have a better emotional adjustment,
improvement of skills in social interaction, or
higher self-esteem.  Some children will show
progress in language development, while others
will improve significantly on homework as their
nervous system begins to function more
efficiently.  Parents often comment that their
children seem to be better prepared, more
self-confident, a better organizer, and easier to
live with.
