Sensory integration, I'm afraid some parents don't understand what it is. Sensory integration, or sensory integration, is a learning process in which the brain and body coordinate with each other. So what are the manifestations of sensory integration disorder in babies? Let's take a look.

There are many symptoms and manifestations of the above-mentioned old age, and most children have them from a single one.

Therefore, mothers should not easily sit in the right seat, and after seeing one or two symptoms, they will label their children.

The definition and diagnosis of sensory integration disorders are complex and require professional evaluation.

There are two reasons behind this, which are congenital and acquired.

Congenital physiological causes.

Abnormal fetal position, resulting in imbalance of the fetus;

Premature birth or caesarean section, resulting in a lack of pressure on the baby;

Inappropriate medication or injections during pregnancy.

The acquired environment and the laughter shed are the reasons.

Parents' overprotection of the baby, so that the baby's information reception is limited;

Parents are busy and lack of sensory awareness of the baby's right brain;

The baby learns to walk when he does not crawl enough, resulting in vestibular balance disorder;

Premature use of a walker makes the baby's vestibular balance and head support insufficient;

Adults discipline too strictly, causing the baby to be too stressed.

Coping with sensory integration disorders.

Sensory integration disorders have a profound impact on people, and if they are not laid in infancy, it is difficult to correct them when they grow up.

Generally speaking, 3-6 years old is the first stage of real sensory integration training, and parents can do preventive training in advance before that:

Babies 1-2 years old.

Try to let your baby climb over obstacles and exercise his body movements;

Play the game of blowing bubbles to exercise children's hand-eye coordination, observation and chasing ability;

Help your baby practice squatting to pick up things (picture books or toys) and learn to listen to instructions and do movements.

Babies 2-3 years old.

Practice the "pitching" action to exercise the baby's hand-eye coordination, learn to observe and explore the target;

Accompany the baby to develop good habits and enhance the baby's self-care ability;

Set up simple situational games (hiding from the rain or driving a car, etc.), and let the baby make corresponding actions or activities to exercise his imagination and thinking ability.

Sensory integration disorders are classified into three types of disorders: mild, moderate, and severe in terms of severity. Mild sensory integration disorder is not obvious and is not easy to be found by parents, and has little impact on children, but it will worsen with age, and parents need to be vigilant; The behavior, language, emotion, and sports of children with moderate sensory integration disorder will be clearly reflected, and parents can easily find out that timely training will be well reflected; Children with severe sensory integration disorder are evident but also concentrated, and such children tend to manifest themselves at a very young age and become more pronounced as they grow older. From a neurological point of view, sensory integration disorders are divided into tactile disorders, vestibular disorders, proprioception disorders, and balance disorders of the left and right brains.

The main manifestations of children are: restlessness and lack of concentration; There is no reason to be afraid of certain subjects, and there are many psychological barriers; Seems to be smart, but very timid; Talking to oneself and not being able to communicate with others; easy to fall or hit walls; biting fingers or not being able to quit the pacifier ; Clumsy, frustrated, lack of self-confidence; Writing cannot be within the frame, and the strokes are often reversed; stubborn, short-tempered ; poor pronunciation and slow language development; clingy, crying, withdrawn and slow; Fidgeting, poor posture, inability to be quiet; picky eaters, picky eaters, poor eating habits; likes to climb high, but does not dare to walk on the balance beam; Afraid of others touching the body, easy to quarrel; Love spinning games and won't get dizzy for too long; Eyes are sour easily and hate reading.

For children with sensory integration disorders, it will be easy to correct through professional training before the age of 12, and once it exceeds this age, it will be difficult to change and become a lifelong regret for the child. The trained child's body balance and coordination, attention, emotion, self-control ability, learning ability, logical reasoning ability, diet, sleep and other aspects have been satisfactorily improved and improved, it is recommended to go to the relevant specialist hospital for treatment, I hope it will be helpful to you.

"Sensory integration disorder" means that the child's brain loses the ability to control and combine various organs of the body, which will weaken the person's cognitive ability and adaptability to varying degrees, thereby delaying the process of socialization. More than 85% of children in modern urban families have sensory integration disorder, and about 30% of them have severe sensory integration disorder. (The article is excerpted from Hangzhou Fudan Sensory Integration Training Center).

In addition to observing the child's daily performance, the teacher of the Golden Rainforest Sensory Integration Training recommends that you go to a professional assessment for the next assessment.

When children are young, it is good to do sensory integration training, but it is too big to stereotype, and it is difficult to exercise sensory integration disorder.
