Why We Recommend Using ‘Sensory Integration and Processing’, and Framing Reports Around Strengths and Difficulties Impacting Participation At ASI Wise and The Sensory Project, we recommend using the term ‘sensory integration and processing’ because it more accurately reflects the full scope of sensory experiences — not just how sensory input is received, but how it is understood, organised, and used to support participation in everyday life. This terminology honours the original theory of Ayres Sensory Integration® (ASI®) while staying up-to-date with current research across neuroscience, occupational therapy, and education. Rather than focusing only on deficits or ‘problems,’ we structure our reports to highlight both strengths and difficulties, particularly how they influence a person’s ability to participate meaningfully in daily activities. Participation is at the heart of occupational therapy and is a key measure of well-being and development. By framing reports this way, we: •Emphasise what a person can do, building confidence and supporting self-efficacy. •Clearly identify needs without labelling or limiting the individual. •Maintain a neuroaffirming, person-centred approach. •Focus intervention planning on supporting adaptive responses, skill development, and increased independence. •Enable collaborative, goal-oriented support between individuals, families, educators, and therapists. This approach also better aligns with contemporary frameworks like the ICF (International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health), promoting a holistic view of health and participation rather than focusing purely on medicalised diagnoses. sensoryproject.org/2025/02/06/why…

👏🏽🙏🏼 Our clients tell us how challenging it often is to find clothes they want to and can wear in a daily basis. As OTs we see the daily barriers they face with things as simple as getting dressed & using the toilet. Accessible clothing @Primark is a step in the right direction!

What a team! Thank you @TheOTShow and well done to all the speakers who really were an inspiration, especially all of ours! 🫶🏼👏🏽💚 #theotshow

Our case study with a professional athlete linking Polyvagal Theory and sensory ladders #theotshow #sensoryregulation #sensorymodulation

Thinking about regulation and neurodivergence and real-life experiences of how OTs can help to reduce fight or flight responses #interoception #sensoryregulation #toneofvoice #sensorymodulation

The importance of Polyvagal Theory in relation to #sensoryregulation #theotshow

Many things influence regulation: internally and externally. We subconsciously do things to manage our own arousal levels 💚 #theotshow #sensoryregulation

Ready for Director @AndreaM56955322 & our Team Lead Sheryl, last one of the day 👏🏼🫶🏼 #sensoryregulation

Thank you Bethan & @LilyNewburn for such an informative and important talk on OT in schools and how we can break down barriers 💚📚👏🏼

Leading intervention guided by @theRCOT #theotshow #otinschools

A school some of our OTs work at to enhance learning and education through a 3-tier approach to targeted OT intervention including staff training and sensory regulation strategies #theotshow

More children are receiving SEN support without an EHCP #schools #SEN #provision #theotshow

Let’s go! @TheOTShow 👏🏼💚 Building Blocks to Success 📚#theotshow
