The Sensory SpOT: Fall Wellness Groups

By Giselle Wisdom Davey, Publisher of Macaroni Kid Springfield October 23, 2022

The Sensory SpOT is registering for fall wellness groups! How can occupational therapy (OT) benefit your child?

  • Does your child struggle with her motor skills? 
  • Maybe he  has trouble making friends? 
  • Does she have difficulty with regulating her emotions or remaining in control of her body?
  • Maybe he has difficulty with planning and organizing everyday tasks?


In order for a child to do his/her best and learn higher level complex skills, such as fine motor, self-regulation, social functioning and executive functioning skills, a child must have a strong foundation.  

 What are foundational skills?

  • Sensory processing skills
  • Fluid motor movement patterns
  • Integrated primitive reflexes
  • Strong emotional well-being
  • Strong visual perceptual skill
  • Good body schema
  • Intact motor planning skills.  


Who benefits from these services? EVERYONE!

The Sensory SpOT is small, privately owned practice that can meet your child's specific needs one-on-one. For more information, visit: www.SensorySpotMA.com
