The overall benefits to our patients include improvement in perception of the world around them (more understandable and less scary), understanding instructions and what is expected of them in social situations and the ability to learn new things. We often see specific improvement in processing time, light/sound/tactile sensitivities, picky eating patterns, sleep patterns, awareness and attention, speech, memory, expression, and social skills.

People who tend to respond the best to this program are those who arrive with sensory overwhelm, unexplained anxiety, difficulty paying attention, sensitivities to light, sound or motion, delays in motor skills, irregular sleep/activity patterns and sensory processing issues.

Most therapies concentrate on one, possibly two, treatment modalities at the same time. The Sensory Learning Program unites four modalities simultaneously (visual, auditory, proprioceptive, and vestibular systems) into one seamless and all encompassing experience. This allows the brain to more efficiently and more quickly integrate those senses to provide a foundation for all future trainings.

Absolutely not! By stimulating the well-developed sensory systems along with the more disorganized sensory systems, the Sensory Learning Program provides an overall experience that is often gentler and more easily integrated than singularly focused interventions. Because we do not experience life by just seeing it or just hearing it, the Sensory Learning Program provides a more thorough approach to developmental learning than individual therapies do alone.

Subtle changes are often seen immediately. Many participants experience significant results during the initial twelve days. Others see changes in cumulative skills unfolding over the following weeks or months.

Because the benefits gained are lasting, the Sensory Learning Program is typically a one-time intervention. Occasionally, patients will return for another round of treatment if they have suffered a brain injury such as a car accident, falling down the stairs, exposure to mold or other toxins and infections that have caused significant brain inflammation.

In most cases, yes. Since the Sensory Learning Program takes a noncognitive approach to brain integration, the only requirements are that your child is able to stay on a moving table (which rotates up and down a bit like a swing), keep a pair of headphones on his ears and gaze at a light in a dark room. When his attention starts to lag, our technicians will be standing by to help bring his attention back to the light by using glow-in-the-dark toys and gentle reminders.

Yes, in fact, we prefer that you or your child experience the Sensory Learning Program to ensure that it is a good fit. This occurs during the complimentary consult. Many times, we have difficulty getting people off the table because they like it so much! Come and experience it yourself by calling the number above.
