How ABILIZONE Helped Myra Overcome Severe Sensory Challenges

abilizone blog (1)

Myra, a 5-year-old girl, was brought to ABILIZONE with concerns related to sensory processing difficulties. She often covered her ears in noisy environments, avoided touching certain textures, and became overwhelmed during routine activities like dressing or bathing. Her parents noticed frequent meltdowns, difficulty participating in school tasks, and challenges playing with peers.

Challenges Identified

During the detailed Occupational Therapy assessment, the ABILIZONE team observed:

Heightened sensitivity to sound and touch
Poor tolerance for grooming activities (hair brushing, nail cutting, bathing)
Difficulty focusing on tasks for more than 5–7 minutes
Avoidance of swings, slides, and motor activities
Frequent emotional outbursts when routines changed
Reduced participation in classroom activities

Therapy Plan

A customized Sensory Integration-based Occupational Therapy plan was developed, including:

Deep-pressure and proprioceptive activities
Gradual desensitization to sound and touch
Balance and coordination exercises
Sensory diet for home and school
Classroom strategy training for teachers
Weekly parent guidance sessions

Therapy was scheduled four times a week, with constant tracking of sensory response patterns.
