Mixed Signals

This is an excellent resource for parents who want to learn more about sensory processing disorder and wonder if it’s cause of their child’s unusual reactions to light, sound, taste, or touch.

The book examines sensory processing disorder both as a stand-alone issue and as a common characteristic of another condition, such as autism. Written by an experienced OT therapist, the book explores the most current assessment tools and therapy options, helping parents to formulate an individualized “sensory diet” - a series of sensory activities to be followed throughout the day that will calm or stimulate a child’s sensory reactions. www.woodbinehouse.com
