Sensory Integration
Sensory integration for children at the Skazka center — working with overload, avoidance, or sensory seeking, when the "body gets in the way" of attention, speech, and behavior.
What is sensory integration?
Sensory integration is the brain''s ability to receive, process, and combine signals from the body and the environment — tactile, vestibular, proprioceptive, visual, and auditory. When this processing is disrupted, a child may avoid touch and noise, seek out strong sensations instead, become overloaded quickly, or "not feel" their own body.
At Skazka, we build sensory work into individual programs through movement, carefully dosed stimuli, and clear strategies for home. This is not a replacement for neurocorrection, but a related focus used when sensory features are the main concern. For children with ASD, sensory integration is often combined with habilitation.
When sensory integration is needed
Common concerns from parents
Overload
The child covers their ears, avoids noisy places, and reacts sharply to light, smells, or crowds.
Touch and body awareness
Cannot tolerate certain clothing or tags, avoids or seeks strong touch, or seems "unaware" of their body in space.
Movement and balance
Constantly spinning or jumping, afraid of swings or heights, clumsy, or finds it hard to sit still.

Branches: Bendery and Tiraspol
What parents can expect
Fewer meltdowns
The child copes better with everyday stimuli, with fewer "explosions" over noise, waiting, or getting dressed.
Better self-regulation
More ways to calm down through movement and clear routines, rather than only through crying.
Support for the family
Parents learn which stimuli help and which overwhelm — and how to dose activity at home.
How the program is built
The request
We identify the situations where the child becomes overloaded or seeks out stimulation.
Observation
We observe the child's reaction to movement, touch, sound, and activity during a session.
Program
We choose exercises and home strategies, and connect with neurocorrection or habilitation if needed.
Progress
We track changes at home, in daycare, and at school, and adjust the plan.
