Navigating Your Sensory World with Ease

Sensory Intelligence®

Sensory experiences shape our interaction with the world around us.

Sensory regulation is the ability to modulate our behavioural response to these sensory experiences. This is critical for maintaining balance and well-being in our daily lives.

Understanding Sensory Regulation

This refers to the process by which the nervous system receives, interprets & modulates sensory stimulation from the external world. Just as people have different pain thresholds, so we have variable tolerance (thresholds) for sensory input. This may include any stimulation from the sounds in a room, the texture of clothing on our body, to the intensity of lights or smells in the space around us. For some, regulating these responses comes naturally, but for others, it can be a source of significant distress and distraction.

sensory regulation

ADOLESENSE offers a comprehensive programme to facilitate client awareness, insight & knowledge of sensory strategies. These are designed to equip & empower individuals to modulate their own thresholds & refine behavioural responses.

Our program includes:

Sensory Assessment

We begin with the SensoryMatrix®, developed by Dr Annemarie Lombard (PhD Occupational Therapy & world-renowned author of the ground-breaking book ‘Sensory Intelligence’).

This is an intriguing and unique assessment tool derived from deep data/evidence-based neuroscientific research.

It creates multiple “Aha!” Moments, helping you to understand why you do what you do! It is an awesome tool to help you understand others too, having a profound impact on relationships.

In this way, it is a game-changing, empowering tool to create self-awareness & insight.

It is designed to:

Identify your unique sensory profile across seven sensory systems.

The impact on alert levels and attention.

Determines your personal behaviour trends.

Considers “best fit” options for you in context of your environment & functional responsibilities.

The SensoryMatrix® lays the groundwork for developing an individualized regulation program.

Personalised Intervention Strategies

We tailor-make strategies to equip you to regulate your nervous system responses at any given time. This facilitates an enormous sense of self-control & confidence in engaging with your environment.

Strategies may include:

Personal Profile Accommodations: Learn simple & easily accessible techniques to modulate your sensory thresholds more effectively. Creates high-level self-awareness to anticipate, plan & prepare for potential “threshold breaches” and employ ‘protective’ tactics to modulate and respond effectively.

Ergonomic Adaptations: If necessary, we may perform a Sensory Audit®, assessing environmental factors, impacting your sensory profile. We may make recommendations and implement modifications to your physical environment to reduce elements of sensory overload, enhance comfort and facilitate ease of function.

Occupational Skills Development: Strategies to facilitate ‘best fit’ between your consolidated skillsets and your life roles, responsibilities and occupational demands.
