SI disorders are highly treatable and therapy is typically fun and enjoyable for the child. By exposing the child to the right type of sensory input, the therapist is able to help the child learn more effectively by using his or her senses. While most children with SI disorders do grow up to be normally functioning adults, life can still be a struggle with many unnecessary accommodations that the child will inevitably undertake. A child may make many personal, social and educational sacrifices to be comfortable with his or her environment and his or her own body. Through a thorough evaluation and treatment plan, many practical accommodations can be made and parents will come away with a better understanding of how to overcome the sensory struggles that their child experiences.
Family life can become more pleasurable for everyone.
