Other Conditions
Sensory Processing Disorder
Sensory processing disorder is a condition in which the brain has trouble receiving and responding to information that comes in through the senses.
People with sensory processing disorder may be oversensitive or undersensitive to things in their environment. Common sounds may be painful or overwhelming and the harmful environments may not result in any response.
Children with sensory processing disorder may:
- Be uncoordinated
- Bump into things
- Be unable to tell where their limbs are in space
- Be hard to engage in conversation or play
Learning Disability
A learning disability is a problem that affects how a child receives and processes new information. Children with learning disabilities may have trouble with any of the following:
- Reading
- Writing
- Doing math
- Understanding directions
Apraxia of Speech
A child suffering from Apraxia of speech finds it difficult to move their mouth and tongue to speak. This may happen, even though the person has the desire to speak and the mouth and tongue muscles are physically able to form words or eat properly.
At EduPlay Therapy, experienced Speech Therapists with internationally recognised qualifications from respected organisations such as ‘TalkTools’ and the ‘Prompt’ institute assist children to gain more control over these functions so as to enable them to eat properly and to form sounds.

Treating ADHD
Generally, ADHD is treated with a combination of behavior therapy and medication. Training for parents is highly recommended as the first line of treatment. Nearly 70% of children with ADHD are taking medication for their symptoms.
Being healthy is important for all children and can be especially important for children with ADHD. In addition to therapy and medication, having a healthy lifestyle can make it easier for your child to deal with ADHD symptoms. Here are some healthy behaviors that may help:
- Developing healthy eating habits such as eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and choosing lean protein sources
- Participating in daily physical activity based on age
- Limiting the amount of daily screen time from TVs, computers, phones, and other electronics
- Getting the recommended amount of sleep each night based on age
Every child or adult with autism has unique strengths and challenges and so each autism intervention or treatment plan should be tailored to address their specific needs. The treatment plan includes therapies that can broadly be classified into the following three groups.
Special Education
Occupational therapy
ABA Based Behavioural therapy
