What are the three categories of Sensory Processing Disorder?

1. Sensory Modulation Disorder (SMD)Sometimes the nervous system’s reactions to everyday stimuli are either “too much” or “too little” relative to the stimuli. Sensory Modulation Disorder describes this set of conditions. There are three subtypes of SMD:
• Sensory Over-Responsivity Disorder
• Sensory Under-Responsivity Disorder
• Sensory Seeking/Craving
2. Sensory Discrimination Disorder (SDD)One of the key things the sensory nervous system does is give us vital information about our own bodies as well as our environment. Sensory Discrimination Disorder is the inability to distinguish one type of input from another. Persons with SDD have difficulty distinguishing and categorizing various attributes about the physical environment. A child may not process hot and cold in the same way we do or may not process the difference when lifting a full soda can versus an empty one.
3. Sensory-Based Motor Disorders
These disorders result when a child’s nervous system is not processing or integrating movement and body information, leading to interference with a child’s motor skills. Sensory Based Motor Disorders have two subtypes:
• Postural Disorder
• Dyspraxia
