is it the same as the SPD people on here talk about?
dd has damage to her thalamus (among many. Her brain looks like swiss cheese) and so the signals from her senses get warped, vision especially doesn't get through if there's a lot of noise as her ears kinda take over. She also has no sensation in her hands/feet/arms but is over sensitive in her torso. We have to keep reminding her to use her vision as she switches it off.
As well as thalamic damage she is missing the part of the parietal cortex that lies alongisde the motor cortex that deals with sensory things.
So, the point of that big long ramble was, is it the same thing as SPD that people talk about and would any of the techniques help dd or is it a case of missing brain = tough luck?
