What is the Sensory Brush?

The sensory brush is often a part of a sensory integration or sensory therapy program run by an occupational therapist. It involves brushing the body with a small sensory brush throughout the day.

People who exhibit symptoms of tactile defensiveness are extremely sensitive to touch. 

The complete protocol usually takes 2-3 minutes to administer. The first step involves using a soft, plastic, sensory brush which is run over the child’s skin, using very firm pressure; it is like a deep pressure massage.

Important: Brushing starts at the arms and works down to the feet. The face, chest, and stomach area are never brushed because these are very sensitive areas. 

In our experience: Some of the benefits may include improved ability to transition between daily activities, improved attention span, a decreased fear or discomfort of being touched, enhanced coordination, and better self-regulation.
