1. Sensory Processing

ii. Feeding

1. As Occupational Therapists, we complete a thorough assessment of the client’s self-care skills, including feeding. We typically intervene if the child does not eat at least 2-3 different foods from each major food group (i.e. vegetable, fruit, meat, etc). Schedule an evaluation today if your child has picky eating habits resulting in poor nutrition.

iii. Reflex Integration

1. Many people do not know that we, as humans, have various reflexes that develop while in our mother’s womb or even after birth. After birth and as we develop, many of these reflexes are supposed to “go away” (i.e. integrate). If these reflexes do not integrate, they can cause difficulty completing activities that require higher level movement, coordination (i.e. reading, jumping jacks, contralateral ski jumps, etc), and even could result in decreased bladder control (i.e. bed wetting). The good news is that we can assist the client in discovering which reflexes are still present and progress towards integrating these reflexes.

iv. Oculomotor and Visual-Motor Integration

1. Many clients come to see us due to oculomotor (eye muscle control) and visual-motor integration deficits. Oculomotor control is required for children to perform tasks such as reading, sports, and play. Visual-motor integration is similar to eye-hand coordination. Can a child recreate a picture or drawing while seeing it? Can a child catch a ball? Can a child toss a ball to a target with accuracy? These are all higher-level components of our visual system that, if delayed, will make everyday tasks more difficult.
