brush therapy for sensory

Brush therapy is a special kind of treatment that helps your brain understand and process the information it gets from your senses better. The skin reacts differently than it does when you brush your arms, legs or back with the soft-bristled brush. This new sensation can also make your brain feel less irritated by things that usually strike your nerves, such as loud sounds or bright lighting.

For instance, if your clothes feel uncomfortable or scratchy, softly brushing your skin can help your body acclimate to that sensation.’ Whereas if you are outside in the streets and you lose a little bit of control, and you are sometimes anxious because there are a lot of people, the brush can hold your mind in your own body, not thinking about the noise of a big crowd.

Discovering the healing power of brush therapy for sensory issues

The purpose of using the brush for therapy is to make a space that is safe, calm and quiet as well. You can do this seated in a chair, or lying down on a soft mat, whatever you feel more comfortable with at the moment. At other times, you could ask someone who you trust, such as a parent or a friend, to lightly stroke your skin. At other times you may rather do it yourself since it shows you feel more controllable to the process.

Dr. Prisco learned that scientific research tells us that brush therapy helps your nervous system function optimally and helps communication between different areas of the brain. This is especially crucial for those with sensory processing disorders, including those on the autism spectrum or with ADHD. These people compound their confusion by struggling to process all the sensory data around them.
