Abstract: Children with Sensory Integrative Dysfunction have difficulties in the processing and integrating sensory information. According to Miller et al. [1] around 5%–15% of children in the general population of kindergarten-age children demonstrate difficulties with sensory modulation. Moreover, a large number (80%-90% of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders demonstrate atypical sensory responsivity [2,3]. Sensory Integration is one of the most requested interventions by the parents of children with Aspergers, autism Spectrum Disorders [4,5,6].
