Making Sense of Sensory Processing Disorders

Class taught by Porter, Occupational Therapist at Barrie Galvin and Associates

October 25

9 am-1:15 pm

Lakeland Community College

Class description:

Imagine that you are a parent or teacher of a child with no typical signs of a disability but you just know something is wrong. The child overreacts when there is a fire drill, another child bumps him unexpectedly, or the tag in his shirt touches his neck; or he under-responds by ignoring people talking to him or can spin without getting dizzy. He might put his hands over his ears during choir class, require hours of jumping on a trampoline to feel calm or need intense sensory input to improve body awareness. Sensory processing disorder is a complex neurological disorder that some experts say affects at least one out of every 20 people in this country. Sensations of taste, smell, touch, vision, sound, movement, and body awareness are all processed differently in someone with this disorder. There is great hope for these individuals. Come learn about cutting-edge therapies that will help them more fully live their lives!
