Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD)

*Disclaimer: if your child has been diagnosed with SPD, or you suspect they have SPD, the best place to begin with any type of diagnostic or treatment plans is with an Occupational Therapist trained in sensory integration.  I am not an OT, and the information in this podcast series should not be used in any way to diagnose you or your child.  
Today starts a special weekly series I will be doing on SPD - Sensory Processing Disorder. 

What is it?  What are the symptoms?  What do you DO for it?  What exactly is a sensory diet? What does the future research on SPD look like

 This is an absolutely huge topic and there is more and more research and discoveries happening with sensory processing every single day.  That’s why I’m going to break it up into parts. 

On today's episode, I introduce what is SPD as well as the EIGHT senses of our body.  Yes, I said eight.

Additional episodes will look at:

The three types of SPDHow our senses can be impacted by each typeDefine a sensory dietWhere the research is headed
