Proprioception is your bodyโ€™s sense of where it is in space. It helps kids know how hard to push, pull, or squeeze without thinking about it. Activities like climbing, pushing heavy toys, or playing tug-of-war help develop this essential sense for better coordination and self-regulation.

Meet Daโ€™Kari, one of our amazing clients working hard during his neurofeedback sessions! Neurofeedback is a nonlinear system that helps restore the brainโ€™s resilience and flexibility. Itโ€™s completely noninvasive, and no diagnosis is required to begin training.

By encouraging the brain to regulate itself more efficiently, neurofeedback can support focus, mood, sleep, and overall well-being.

When kids can manage how their bodies feel, they can focus, learn, and connect better. Sensory regulation helps with everything from staying calm in class to trying new foods at dinner. Occupational therapy teaches these self-regulation strategies in fun, achievable ways.

Progress looks different for every child, and thatโ€™s something we celebrate! Whether itโ€™s mastering a new skill or growing confidence, our therapists meet kids where they are and build from there. Each session is designed to support progress that lasts well beyond the clinic.
