Can sensory integration dysfunction be cured?
Occupational therapy, utilizing a sensory integration treatment approach, can help to minimize sensory integration dysfunction. Biological research has shown (and is continuing to show) that SI intervention can greatly minimize dysfunction with daily life activities. Research is demonstrating that the nervous system can be changed, and the ability to process sensation can be improved.
When occupational or physical therapy is given using a sensory integration framework, the problems can be minimized. The nervous system can be changed, and the ability to process sensation can be improved. Biological research has shown that with therapy, the interference of sensory processing dysfunction with daily life tasks will be greatly minimized.
