Ayres Sensory Integration (ASI)

Ayres Sensory Integration (ASI) is a therapeutic approach designed to help individuals, especially children, who have difficulty processing sensory information from their environment. It involves engaging in specially structured activities that provide controlled sensory experiences—such as touch, movement, and sound—to improve the brain’s ability to interpret and respond appropriately to sensory stimuli. The goal is to enhance overall functioning, including attention, coordination, and emotional regulation, by supporting the nervous system's capacity to organize sensory input efficiently. ASI is often used for children with sensory processing challenges, autism, and related conditions.
