About Sensory Integration Therapy

Does your child seem overwhelmed by sounds, lights, or textures that don’t bother others? Or do they constantly seek intense movement, pressure, or stimulation? Sensory processing challenges affect how children perceive and respond to everyday sensory experiences – and can significantly impact behavior, learning, and wellbeing. At Dr. Yasaswi’s Child Development Centre, our Sensory Integration Therapy programme uses a structured, evidence-informed approach to help the brain and body work together more effectively, so children can engage, learn, and enjoy their world.

What to Expect

  • Step 1 – Sensory Profile Assessment: We evaluate how your child responds to different sensory inputs across the tactile, vestibular, proprioceptive, auditory, and visual systems.

  • Step 3 – Sensory Gym Sessions: Therapy takes place in a specially equipped sensory gym using swings, crash pads, balance equipment, and tactile materials to challenge and regulate the sensory system.
  • Step 4 – Sensory Diet at Home & School: We provide a personalized sensory diet – a schedule of sensory activities for use at home and school to support regulation throughout the day.
  • Step 5 – Family Education & Coaching: We equip parents and teachers with strategies to support the child across all environments.
