Causes of sensory imbalance

Question 1: What are the causes of sensory integration disorder in children? 1. Infants are left unattended from birth. They just give their children food and drinks every day. Without the company of adults, such children will be poor in sports, coordination, communication and intelligence.

2. After birth, the baby is deeply loved. He holds it much since childhood, does not let go, and is afraid of wrestling. Children get less exercise opportunities, which leads to slow development of sports ability.

3. Individual fine motor training is insufficient, and children's spatial ability and fine motor development are slow. Some children can pick up hair on the ground with two fingers in ten months. Some 1 year-olds can't do it yet.

Improvement method:

1, pay attention to prenatal education, take time to talk to the fetus and tell stories every day.

2. Restrict children from watching too much TV.

3. Take more children to play games in nature.

4. Hug and comfort.

5. Observe the toddler.

6. Seek medical advice in time if you have any questions.

7, life game method: walk in a straight line, shoot pie bubbles, etc.

Question 2: What are the manifestations of children's sensory integration disorder? Sensory integration disorder is mainly manifested in the following situations:

① Poor vestibular perception: clumsy physical activity, disobedience to command, distorted audio-visual nervous system, confusion of left and right brains, and language disorder in severe cases.

② Obstacles of balance and integration: no sense of distance, poor coordination, inability to stand or sit, easy to fall, unstable to hold things, walking against the wall, upset, fidgeting, inattention, poor interpersonal relationship and strong aggression.

③ Tactile integration disorder: being overly sensitive to other people's touch, totally different at home and abroad, clingy, crying, shy, withdrawn, unsociable, bad-tempered, picky eaters, eating hands, biting nails, playing with genitals, etc. This kind of children usually have quick reaction and high IQ, but their emotional intelligence is very low because of uncontrollable emotions.

④ Physical integration disorder: poor coordination, poor balance, easy to fall, clumsy movements and lack of self-confidence. If there are problems with the above three items, it will be difficult for the sense of ontology to develop soundly.

⑤ Visual integration obstacles: reading difficulties, jumping in reading, too many words, wrong numbers, inversion of radicals, etc.

6 hearing integration disorder: looking around, turning a deaf ear to other people's words, inattention, poor memory, often forgetting what the teacher said and homework.

Children born by caesarean section lack the first and most important tactile contact in their lives, no breastfeeding, and lack of "skin relatives" between children and their mothers, which are not conducive to their tactile development.

In addition, many parents overprotect their children, and their children behave appropriately, such as touching, crawling, rolling, hitting and jumping. Destroyed by man in the process of natural development. Children who don't climb when they should climb may have poor coordination and balance in the future, don't cry when they should cry, have insufficient oral muscle exercise, weak cardiopulmonary function and even poor language expression ability.

And:

(1) lack of activity during pregnancy, emotional instability, abnormal fetal position, premature delivery and cesarean section; After birth, there are few hugs and insufficient crawling.

② Small family life makes children lose friends, which limits their experience and hinders their good communication with other children; Children lack activity space, which is not conducive to sensory learning.

③ Urbanized lifestyles such as air conditioning hinder tactile learning, which leads to the incomplete development of nervous system and brain function.

(4) The education mode of fierce competition, parents' education for their children is either too strict, which makes the parent-child relationship rigid and tense; Either overindulge or overprotect.

How to deal with sensory integration disorder?

Children's sensory integration disorder does not mean that children have mental problems or unhealthy bodies, but these problems will cause obstacles to children's learning and communication. Even if their IQ is normal or abnormal, their brains can't work normally and effectively, which will directly affect their study and exercise and lead to psychological obstacles. Therefore, parents and teachers should pay enough attention to them and let them participate in sensory integration training.

In the first few years of life, the brain is in the stage of "assembly". Because human senses work together, the brain is responsible for processing complex sensory information. If the brain network is not well established and the sensory integration is insufficient, it will directly affect people's healthy development.

What should parents do if they suspect that their children have sensory integration disorder?

First of all, you can ask a professional to give your child a sensory integration assessment. After carefully analyzing the evaluation results and the process of children's birth and education, professional instructors will formulate targeted training suggestions for children with sensory disorders.

If experts suggest special training for children, then children will get professional guidance from trainers during the training cycle, and carry out a lot of intensive training, professional training design and professional psychological guidance for children's weak aspects, providing safe, interesting and ideal training activities to help children respond effectively to various sensory inputs, integrate complex information and improve brain energy.

But now the cost of professional training is relatively high.

Question 3: What is sensory imbalance? The popular saying of sensory disorder is: "children's brains have slight obstacles in the development process", and drugs are ineffective and can only be corrected through training.

In other words, synaesthesia is not a disease.

The causes of sensory imbalance can be divided into the following two types:

1. Physiological causes (congenital)

Imbalance caused by abnormal fetal position;

Insufficient pressure on children due to premature delivery or caesarean section; Causing tactile disorders.

Injuries caused by incorrect medication and beating children during pregnancy;

2. Environmental and human causes (acquired)

Due to the small family and urbanized life, children's activities have become smaller, and adults have overprotected children and arranged everything, resulting in incomplete information received by children;

Parents are too busy and have little counseling, which leads to the sensory loss of children's right brain;

After the child is born, he learns to walk directly without crawling, which leads to vestibular imbalance;

Parents or nannies forbid children to play with dirt and sand, for fear of getting dirty, resulting in children's lack of touch;

Premature use of walkers makes children's vestibular balance and head support insufficient;

Parents demand too much, discipline is too strict, people put too much pressure on their children, and children spend too little time in free activities, which causes mental damage and frustration.

The common problems of children's sensory integration disorder are: tactile problems

1. Avoid contact. Stick to something to make yourself feel safe at all times. I don't like to play physical contact games, and I don't like clothes with certain textures.

2. I hate being touched, getting a haircut, taking a shower and brushing my teeth, and physical labor such as painting, sand and bricklaying.

3. Love to fight, love to lose your temper and hit people, and react violently to non-malicious physical contact.

Vestibular sensory function problem

1. Staggering in class, improper posture of writing and holding pen, incorrect posture of sitting, reading and writing.

2. Skipping and missing lines are easy to occur in reading. When the head moves, the eyes are unstable in space.

3. Motion sickness, seasickness, dizziness during large-scale exercise.

4. Structural and spatial perception barriers make it difficult to distinguish subtle differences in images.

5. Avoid or be afraid of exercise, which mainly uses eyes to coordinate actions.

Proprioception function problem

1. Writing speed is slow, handwriting is not standardized, and writing is often too hard.

2. In learning and other activities, the sense of order and time is poor.

3. It is easy to cause learning disabilities due to non-intellectual factors, often unable to complete simple actions, lacking self-confidence, being prone to depression when encountering difficulties, and being highly dependent.

4. It is difficult to learn fine movements such as tying shoelaces and buttoning buttons. The skills of big and fine movements are poor, and the movements are clumsy. They don't like somersaults and are not good at playing with building blocks. 5. Being withdrawn, it is easy to get lost in a strange environment.

Question 4: The reason of sensory imbalance seems to be a very tall name, and many parents feel unfathomable when they see this name. So what exactly is sensory disorder?

Experts in the Golden Rainforest pointed out that the full name of sensory integration disorder is sensory integration disorder, also known as "neuromotor dysfunction", which is a disorder of the central nervous system. It refers to the defects of various sensory information (vision, hearing, smell, touch, etc.). What enters the brain from the outside cannot form an effective combination in the central nervous system, which makes the body unable to operate harmoniously. This kind of defect will cause the obstacle of perceptual function and attention. Therefore, in general, children with sensory impairment will have the problem of inattention in class more or less. However, perceptual dysfunction will affect the development of children's automatic perceptual function and cause learning difficulties. Children with sensory impairment are also influenced by their self-awareness and psychological self-esteem about their own bodies.

Human learning depends on the integration of various senses. Only by effectively linking and integrating all kinds of senses can we form an overall understanding of things. So a single feeling can't reflect the whole picture and characteristics of things. So the function of sensory integration is actually to make many parts of the feeling form a whole cognition. Only through the integration of senses can human beings complete advanced and complex cognitive activities, including attention, memory, language ability, organization ability, self-control, generalization ability and reasoning ability.

The clinical manifestations of sensory integration disorder can be divided into proprioception disorder, vestibular sensory disorder, visual system disorder, auditory system disorder and tactile system disorder.

The above is the introduction of sensory disorders by experts in the Golden Rainforest, hoping to help everyone. If you want to know more about the sensory imbalance of the Golden Rainforest, please visit the Golden Rainforest website.

Question 5: Causes of sensory disorders In the process of children's growth and development, many times, parents will feel the abnormality of their children. However, due to the lack of knowledge of children's education, children's medicine and children's psychology, parents often don't know that their children have sensory integration disorder, and often miss the best time to correct it. Today, we invite experts from the Golden Rainforest to explain the specific clinical manifestations of sensory integration disorder.

Experts in Golden Rainforest pointed out that the clinical manifestations of sensory integration disorder can be divided into proprioception disorder, vestibular sensory disorder, visual system disorder, auditory system disorder and so on.

1. vestibular sensory disturbance

Most people like to rotate, and they won't get dizzy after a long time; Climb high and jump while walking; Poor balance, walking stagger, often bump into things; Standing upright for longer than children of the same age, often hanging his head.

2. Proprioceptive disorder

Acting like others pushing and squeezing. News. Hands and feet like to swing too hard and can't do some movements. Action imitation is not in place, and I often see it at a loss. Things are often damaged by too much force, or they can't be grasped by too little force. The speed control of the car body is poor, so it is difficult to stop according to the instructions.

3. Tactile system disorder

It is manifested in fear of unfamiliar environment and excessive attachment to parents, which is easy to produce separation anxiety and excessive tension; Partial eclipse, overeating, avoid chewing.

4. Visual impairment

Even if it is often seen, it will still make children afraid; Very interested in specific colors, shapes, words, and even stubborn opinions; I like to watch advertisements with bright colors and fast picture changes; I was fascinated by sitting in the car and the scenery outside the window changed.

5. Hearing system disorder

Interested in things with low voices, like screaming or talking to yourself for no reason; Often press or cover your ears; I like sharp or high notes, but I don't hate them at all.

I hope that parents can judge the areas that children need to improve as soon as possible through these small details, because they can correct them as soon as possible and give their children a perfect life.

Question 6: What are the manifestations of children's sensory dysfunction? Sensory integration is the "traffic light" of the brain and the basis of all learning abilities. When sensory integration processes all sensory information, learning behavior takes place. So, what will happen to children with sensory integration disorder?

Vestibular disorder: brain radar failure

Vestibular sensation is a radar of the brain, from which most sensory information will be transmitted to the brain, and then to our sensory organs such as eyes, ears, hands and mouth to complete the task. For example, the information we heard from the teacher, the Chinese characters written on the blackboard, the feeling of holding the pen, and our heads overcoming the influence of gravity to keep our bodies straight and so on. , will all be handled by vestibular sense, so that we can better deal with learning tasks. So children with vestibular disorders will show a series of small problems:

Poor body image, such as lying for a while, sitting for a while, lying for a while, always like to put your head at different heights.

B, p, write backwards, write backwards, and it will be uneven, vertical and not straight, and different sizes.

Often too excited, running around and rolling around.

Fear of heights, like spinning, either dizzy for a long time or dizzy when spinning.

Clumsy, always falling or knocking things over, but not out of the child's will.

Poor attention, always absent-minded, absent-minded

Do not understand instructions, listen to instructions incompletely, listen to instructions slowly, and it is difficult to implement.

Missing words, missing words and skipping lines in reading.

Poor emotional control ability

Ontology imbalance: body mapping failed

The sense of noumenon is a kind of feeling we have about the body, which affects our control over the body. For example, when we write, we need to use the muscles of our hands to control the pen, the muscle strength of our waist to keep sitting posture, and the coordination of our oral muscles when we speak ... so the sense of noumenon will also affect children's learning behavior. Children with proprioception disorders may have the following problems:

There are many problems in body control, such as standing or not, sitting or not, and small movements.

Affect the coordination of children's movements, there will be problems such as uncoordinated body, inability to count balls, crooked writing, and poor sense of space.

Affect creativity

Affect language development, leading to unclear articulation and drooling.

Tactile disorders: skin sensor distortion

Touch is the most basic feeling that needs to be used from the child in the mother's womb to the birth and growth. The cold, heat, pain, itching and other feelings we can feel come from the sense of touch. In life and study, we feel the material of clothes, feel the material of books, and build trust with our peers through hugs, all of which are achieved through touch.

Touch has a great influence on our social interaction and emotional control. In infancy, we know all kinds of objects and shapes such as squares, circles and angles by touching them.

Therefore, children with insufficient contact may have poor shape resolution and spatial resolution when they grow up. For children with tactile disorders, there are mainly the following two aspects:

Tactile sensitivity: picky about food, clothes and environment, afraid of touching, clingy and afraid of the dark.

Tactile dullness: poor sense of strength, heavy hands, no feeling when falling, lack of self-protection awareness, etc.

Comprehensive manifestations of sensory disorders

Generally speaking, children with sensory impairment have difficulty in dealing with simple tasks, so in complex activities such as study and social interaction, children will be very clumsy, always forget things, delay and dawdle, and cannot complete multiple tasks at the same time. For example: doing homework slowly, always forgetting to bring textbooks, unable to take notes in class, unable to hear the teacher's class content when writing, etc. Due to physiological reasons, children with sensory impairment can't successfully complete the tasks of life and study like ordinary children. In the long run, there will be great problems with self-confidence.

Question 7: What are the manifestations of sensory disorders? The so-called sensory disorder refers to a series of symptoms caused by poor connection between children's central nervous system and sensory system, just like traffic jams caused by road congestion. China's research shows that 10%-30% children have different degrees of sensory imbalance; According to the investigation of school-age children in Beijing, it is found that the severe proportion of sensory integration disorder is 10.8%, and the mild proportion disorder is 35.9%.

There are many reasons for sensory disorders, such as iron and zinc deficiency during the child's development, mother's medication during pregnancy, and partial eclipse. Relevant experts believe that children born by caesarean section are more prone to sensory disorders because they are not squeezed by the birth canal. In addition, parents overindulge their children and restrict their touching, crawling, rolling and hitting behaviors, which will also lead to sensory imbalance of children.

Sensory disorders include vision, hearing, touch and many other aspects. When parents find that their children have the following problems, they should be vigilant and go to a professional children's hospital for evaluation first.

Hearing performance is incomplete, forgetful, stuttering, and speech is not smooth;

Visual manifestations are dyslexia, old missing words and skipping words;

Tactile synaesthesia is characterized by nervousness, withdrawn, unsociable, partial eclipse, bad temper, clingy, eating hands, biting nails and even biting people;

The vestibular balance function is abnormal, which is manifested as fidgeting, inattention, easy to fall when walking, unclear sense of direction, emotional instability and so on. In addition, some children will have language retardation and difficulty in expression.

Just as traffic jams require traffic police to come out to guide them, children with sensory impairment also need some training to recover. Generally speaking, 3- 12 years old is a suitable adjustment period.

Children with visual impairment can play mazes, puzzles, color pictures, throwing sandbags and glass balls.

& In order to exercise your baby's hearing, you can play dodge and jump games, that is, adults sit on the cushion with their legs together, and the baby holds hands with the adults, with their legs standing opposite. When the adult's legs are separated, you can shout a password to let the baby quickly put the legs together and jump on the adult's legs.

For tactile problems, you can gently brush your baby's body with a soft brush or gently prick your baby's scalp, armpits, chest and other places with the front end of a comb. You can also spread sand, blankets, leaves and other things with different textures on the ground, so that the baby can walk barefoot and feel all kinds of touch.

& Babies with poor balance ability can practice walking on the balance beam or walking in a straight line.

Question 8: What causes children to feel out of balance? Hinder every child's study.

vestibular sensation

Correctly accept the information of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch, filter out useless information and concentrate.

Impact:

1, weak sense of space and poor sense of balance.

2, inattention, easily disturbed

3. The visual irregularity of skipping words.

proprioceptive sense

Feel the spatial position, motion state, and the ability of body and brain to coordinate and process information in a planned way.

Impact:

1, poor physical coordination and poor sense of direction.

2, don't like to do homework, all thumbs.

3. Slow understanding of concepts and weak language expression ability.

sense of touch

Feel warmth, humidity, pain, pressure and vibration, know the world, be safe and defend yourself, and affect social communication.

Impact:

1, lack of self-confidence and poor adaptability

2, timid, do not like to associate.

3, the reaction is too slow or too sensitive

Sensory training, major, such as Dortmund children's concentration.

Question 9: What is sensory integration and what are the causes of sensory imbalance? "sensory integration" refers to the combination of sensory information input by various parts of human organs, and the response to external perception is completed through the cooperation of the brain.

What is the main cause of abnormal sensation?

Fetal version

Unbalanced disorder

Traditional education methods of grandparents

Ask too much or indulge too much.

Premature delivery or caesarean section

Tactile learning deficit

Premature use of walker.

Lack of vestibular balance and head support

The activity space is too small to climb.

Vestibular imbalance disorder

Overprotective or overindulgent.

Lack of physical operation ability

Parents are too busy.

The child's right brain feels * * * insufficient.

Delay correction

Children lack self-confidence and stereotypes about bad habits.

Sensory training, major, such as Dortmund children's concentration.
