Sensory Integration
SIT helps the child's brain process signals from the senses correctly — the foundation of learning, motor function and behaviour.
How the procedure works
Sensory integration (SIT) is the process by which the child's nervous system receives signals from touch, vestibular, proprioceptive, olfactory, visual, auditory and taste receptors and then organises and interprets them to produce an appropriate response. In children with cerebral palsy, autism, speech-language delay or ADHD this process is often disrupted: the child cannot keep balance, refuses certain textures, cannot tolerate noise. SIT sessions in Huizhou take place in a dedicated sensory gym — trampolines, swings, weighted vests, balance boards, tactile pathways. The programme is tailored to age, diagnosis and the child's preferences; all seven sensory systems are engaged, sessions are play-based and never coercive. SIT at our centre is led by Shen Lu — a CCSI-certified specialist and graduate of Xingtai Medical College in Rehabilitation Therapy. In 2022 he completed courses in «Methods of Sensory Integration Assessment» and the «International Guideline for Cerebral Palsy Rehabilitation»; in 2023 he received the international CCSI certification.
Sensory profile
The therapist assesses all seven sensory systems, identifies hypo- and hyper-reactivity and records behaviour in real-life scenarios via parent interview.
Play sessions
Sessions take place in the sensory gym with trampolines, swings, balance boards and tactile elements. The child receives metered sensory stimulation.
Carry-over
The therapist trains parents to embed sensory breaks throughout the day: rocking, weighted blanket, tactile toys. A reassessment is performed every four weeks.
