This ia what I was reading about last night
ensory motor integration, or neurodevelopment organisation as it is sometimes called, has been practised for many decades. Most of the research and development has come from North America. The results in many cases of conditions such as autism, brain injury, stroke and dyslexia have been outstanding.
Neurosurgeon Temple Fay developed it in the late 1950s through lifelong scientific research. He discovered that a dysfunctional brain can be reprogrammed, like a wet computer, with normal input, and that damaged or affected cells can be stimulated to overcome many problems within the brain. It then performs in a natural pattern which it can return to with help.
An estimated 14,200 children in Scotland have some degree of brain dysfunction. These children require treatment as early as possible. Normal neurological development can be adversely affected in many ways, which include physical injury to the brain, nutritional deficiency, environmental deprivation and biochemical imbalances.
This type of therapy is designed to help the individual through natural stages of neurological development. In so doing functional brain cells have the opportunity to replicate the work of affected cells. This methodology enables the individual to recreate brain function. The brain rather than the body is treated and the problem cause rather than the symptom is addressed. Records adequately demonstrate that families with the ability and devotion to carry out the therapy often achieve outstanding results.
