Q

What methods are used in the Biomechanical FOR?

A

Increasing weight of toys
Repetitive use of objects
Increase time in activities that they are engaged in
Provide a repetitive long, sustained stretch in activity

17
Q

Name that FOR!

Goal: Increase or decrease sensory input

A

Sensory Integration Treatment

18
Q

What methods are used in the Sensory Integration FOR?

A

facilitate controlled sensory input for processing
activities that engage & challenge children
vestibular, proprioceptive, and tactile stimulation

19
Q

What is vestibular and what does it cause?

A

Vestibular means of not having equilibrium (damage to the inner ear)

Can cause vertigo, dizziness, and off-balance

20
Q

What are treatments for vestibular?

A

head, body, and eye exercises

21
Q

What is proprioceptive?

A

the awareness of posture, movement, and changes in equilibrium and the knowledge of position, weight, and resistance of objects as they relate to the body

22
Q

What treatments are used to help with proprioceptive?

A

sensory inhibition and facilitation of play (pushing and pulling toys)
increase tolerance to activities
explore excitation techniques to alert the CNS

23
Q

What is the goal of Tactile Stimulation?

A

Increase the sense of touch

tactile defense is the lack of sense to touch, texture, or temperature

24
Q

How is tactile stimulation treated?

A

desensitizing touching things or being touched
tracing on the back
playing in the bathtub

25
Q

Name the FOR!

Goal: increasing movement of all systems

A

Motor Control

26
Q

What treatment can be used for motor control?

ex: taking a bath, brushing teeth, toileting, writing, drawing

27
Q

Name the FOR!
