Pediatric sensory integration in Tulsa

  Does your child cover their ears at loud noises, melt down over the "wrong" clothing textures, or seem to be constantly "on the go" and bumping into things? These aren't just quirks—they are signs of how your child’s brain processes sensory information. At neurOT, we specialize in Sensory Integration therapy to help your child feel safe, regulated, and confident in their environment. 

  Sensory Integration is the process by which the brain organizes information from the seven senses (sight, sound, smell, taste, touch, balance, and body awareness). When a child has Sensory Processing Disorder, their brain "misfires" that information. We help children who fall into two main categories:

• The Sensory Avoider: Overwhelmed by lights, sounds, or tags on shirts. They may "shut down" or have meltdowns in busy places like grocery stores.
• The Sensory Seeker: Always moving, jumping, or crashing. They may have a high pain tolerance or not realize how loudly they are speaking.

  A dysregulated nervous system cannot learn. That’s why we integrate Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) into our sensory sessions. By applying targeted red light therapy, we help 'quiet' the overactive nervous system, making it easier for your child to engage in sensory exercises without feeling overwhelmed. It’s a non-invasive way to bridge the gap between stress and progress. 

  If you notice these signs, a sensory evaluation at our Tulsa clinic can help:

• Emotional Outbursts: Frequent meltdowns during transitions or in crowded areas.
• Coordinations Issues: Clumsiness or difficulty with balance (Vestibular processing).
• Oral Sensitivities: Extreme pickiness with food textures or temperatures.
• Focus Struggles: Difficulty attending to tasks because they are distracted by "background" sensory input.

 At neurOT, we don't just "play"—we provide purposeful, neurological input in a controlled environment. Our sessions focus on:

1. Vestibular Input: Swings and movement to improve balance and spatial orientation.
2. Proprioceptive Work: "Heavy work" activities that help the brain know where the body is in space.
3. Tactile Desensitization: Gradually helping the brain accept different textures and touches.
4. Self-Regulation Tools: Teaching your child (and you!) strategies to find "the just-right state" at home and school.

 At neurOT, we believe specialized neurological care should be accessible to families across the greater Tulsa metro. Our clinic is centrally located and designed to support children who need pediatric occupational therapy, executive function support, reflex integration, and red light therapy.
