[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 422844, member: 1722"] SW- We had actually thought that Duckie had been growing out of her sensory issues. Second and third grades were excellent. But this year... not so much. The classroom environment is very loud and contentious just as social expectations are sky rocketing and puberty is coming on strong... it's a potent mix. I don't know about studies (I suppose I should have researched Wilbarger's more but I had heard of the protocol before now at least) but I can tell you that Duckie was very relaxed after the very first session and she has been able to sleep through the night again almost every night in the last week (that's nearly a miracle, lol!). HZ- She hasn't had a meltdown at the particular time a session is scheduled but I think it's more preventive in nature. The brushing and joint compressions seem to be desensitizing her, though it's only been a week. Confuzzled- She did say that she would let me trial her copy before we start to use the program. She said it's a good program and she's seen it help others like Duckie but acknowledged it is pricey. In addition she wants us to get through Wilbarger's first to see how Duckie is doing and doesn't want us to get overwhelmed with too much too do all at once. She said it would be ideal for Duckie to go through the listening program over the summer (if we feel she needs it). [/QUOTE]
