[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 162668, member: 1233"] Terry, Brushing is a therapy. It isn't a 1time thing. At first we were supposed to do it every 2 hours, then down to every 3, and so on until it was 2 times a day, more often if he seemed to need it. It helps the brain cope iwth all the sensory input. It MUST be taught by a professional, because brushing some areas can cause a lot of harm (surprised me to learn this, but it is true) and if you are not brushing the correct way then it isn't going to help. It is done with a very soft brush, on bare skin or over clothing. A brush like a surgical scrub brush, but they sell them in catalogs of Occupational Therapist (OT) stuff. [/QUOTE]
