248: Sensory Processing Difficulties in Kids

Does your kid experience MEGA meltdowns? Do their emotions seem all over the place - Up one minute down the next? Do they seem more sensitive to things? Lights are too bright, music too loud, smells too strong, tags annoying, sock seams send them crying to their room just as you're trying to get out the door? This can be a sign of SPD or sensory processing difficulties. Or perhaps they are sensory seeking and they are very rough, they touch everything trailing their hand behind them as they walk, they climb on every piece of furniture, they're loud and intense! They may even eat things that aren't food on purpose!  In this 2 part series we learn what our 8 main senses are and how signals can be interrupted and therefore cause difficulties in the way our childrens perceive and interact with their environment. We can learn ways to help support our little ones when they find their surroundings overwhelming or when they are seeking out stimuli. This is an area that is not widely spoken about but I am passionate to bring our attention to it as there is much we can do to mitigate the effects and help support those healthy neural pathways develop! Early intervention is key! So find out more by listening in. _______________________________________________________________________ UPDATE* Angela is now accepting new clients, book an appointment by heading to www.busbynaturopathics.com.au  and use the book now button or by clicking here Busby Naturopathics - Book appointment (cliniko.com)   Thanks for listening.

247: Meltdowns, annoyed by tags, bothered by light or noise... Does My Kid Have Sensory Processing Difficulties?

This is a little prequel to a coming 2 part series on Sensory Processing Difficulties .. something I am becoming very passionate about sharing with every parent I can.. as it can explain some of the recurring behaviours that may have baffled or exhausted you. Whether it is constant emotional dysreglation, or being overly excited, rough or agreesive through to being scared, anxious, withdrawn.. these can all be symptoms of sesnory processing difficulties. Theres also the more obvious ones of sensativily to sounds, lights, touch, smells or tastes.. or perhaps seeking these sensory inputs out!!  Unfortunately most professionals, paediatritians, OTs, Psychologists, are not educated to understand the signs and symptoms of this disorder and look for it in our child that present with these troubles. They may be diagnosed with a variety of other conditions while this still lies under the surface not being treated.  When we get in and intervene early we can create fantastic outcomes with dramatic improvements in all the above mentioned areas. So if this sounds like it could apply to you or your family please listen to this trailer and the coming 2 episodes to empower yourself to identify and treat sensory difficulties in yourself or you child!   ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ UPDATE* Angela is now offering in clinic appointments as well as online, book an appointment by heading to www.busbynaturopathics.com.au  and use the book now button or by clicking here Busby Naturopathics - Book appointment (cliniko.com)   Thanks for listening.
