Abstract

Sensory Integration Therapy (SIT), traditionally associated with children, has emerged as a valuable intervention for adults experiencing sensory processing disorders (SPDs). This article explores the application of SIT in adult populations, addressing its role in managing sensory challenges associated with various conditions, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We review the theoretical foundations of SIT for adults, discuss therapeutic techniques, present case studies demonstrating its effectiveness, and consider practical implications for integrating SIT into adult therapeutic practices. By examining the benefits and challenges of SIT for adults, this article aims to provide insights into its potential for enhancing quality of life across the lifespan.
