What is Sensory Processing?
A person’s way of noticing and responding to sensory messages from their body and the environment, processed in the nervous system.
Everyone processes sensory information uniquely and can influence how we self-regulate.
Sensory processing includes responses to what we see, hear, touch, taste, as well as sense of movement in our head and body. We take sensory information, process it and generate an appropriate response.
What is Sensory Modulation?
Sensory Modulation is the organization of sensory information for on-going use.
Efficient sensory modulation is the ability to effectively regulate the degree to which one is influenced by various sensory inputs.
We use sensory modulation to address self-regulation.
