Sensory Issues (Vision, Tactile, Auditory)

Sensory processing issues occur when the brain struggles to interpret and respond to sensory information properly, leading to hypersensitivity (over-responsiveness) or hyposensitivity (under-responsiveness) to stimuli. Individuals may experience distress from bright lights, aversion to certain textures, or discomfort from specific sounds, making daily life challenging. These difficulties are commonly seen in individuals with autism, ADHD, post-concussion syndrome, and anxiety but can also occur independently. When sensory input overwhelms the brain, it can lead to emotional dysregulation, difficulty focusing, and heightened stress.

Neurofeedback offers a non-invasive, effective way to address sensory processing issues by training the brain to regulate its responses to sensory stimuli. Since these issues often stem from dysregulated neural activity, neurofeedback helps balance the brain’s electrical patterns, improving sensory integration, reducing overstimulation, and enhancing cognitive processing. By strengthening neural networks involved in sensory perception, neurofeedback helps individuals become more resilient to sensory input, making it a valuable tool in managing sensory sensitivities.
