A brief description about this Activity.
This webinar provides an overview of commonly occurring sensory processing impairments (SPIs) among individuals who have ADHD, along with the seven major avenues of intervention to alleviate these deficits. Numerous body parts display impaired coordination of involved muscle groups, acute hypersensitivity, or suppressed response to sensory stimulation, sometimes seen as obsessions, compulsions, obliviousness, touch defensiveness, and weak attention focus. They are all caused by the brain’s abnormal muting or magnifying of its response to sensory inputs. Much of the classroom disruption created by students who have ADHD is the result of these sensory processing impairments. Some ADHD symptoms can be controlled, reduced, or eliminated by addressing these sensory-motor components, regardless of any other interventions occurring at the time. Primarily through the seven avenues of intervention, SPIs are often addressed as a professional service by occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech/language/hearing practitioners, and to a lesser extent, mental health professionals.
