Why Sensory Assessment Matters for Neurodivergence

People with Autism, ADHD, or a sensory processing disorder experience the world differently. Many have unique sensory needs, such as sensitivity to noise or touch, while others may seek intense stimulation to regulate their emotions. Understanding these differences is key to creating strategies that support comfort and participation in everyday life. Understanding Sensory Profiles Lifeworks Occupational Therapy provides sensory assessments, helping people understand how they experience the world and how best to meet their needs. Sensory differences may involve hypersensitivity (over-responsiveness) or hyposensitivity (under-responsiveness) to stimuli like light, sound, smell, taste, touch, movement, and body awareness. For example, someone may find bright lights overwhelming or seek spinning to feel balanced, while others may not register pain or crave deep pressure. Sensory processing differences impact daily activities, including sleep, eating, personal space, and social interactions...

What is Scrambler Therapy?

Scrambler Therapy, also called ‘Calmare’ (Italian for “to soothe or ease”) is a drug-free and non-invasive treatment for nerve and cancer-related pain. Scrambler Therapy is a form of ‘neuromodulation’ . Neuromodulation is a long word, but it is easier to understand when we break it down: neuro relates to ‘nerves or the nervous system’ and modulation relates to ‘changing’ . Therefore, neuromodulation simply means “changing the way the nerves or nervous system behave”. How does Scrambler Therapy change the way the nerves behave? Scrambler Therapy changes the danger message sent by the nerves to the brain, which then results in the sensation of pain. Scrambler Therapy sends a message of “no danger” along the nerves to the brain, which results in a reduced or eradicated sensation of pain. The brain is responsible for deciding how to interpret different sensory messages from the body. The brain often interprets the sensory messages resulting from an injury (for example a papercut) as painf...
