TJM – SENS
Sensory space
Sensory stimulation room
“Sensations are the main part of our knowledge about the outside world and our own body.”
Elements of the sensory stimulation room
BUBBLE TUBE:
Powerful visual stimulus, thanks to its spontaneous changing colours and bubble movement.
EFFECTS OF THE BUBBLE TUBE:
-
Sensory stimulation
-
Cognitive stimulation
-
Visual relaxation
-
Visuomotor coordination
-
It should be used without any other visual stimulus.
OPTICAL FIBRE:
It is a bundle of fibres, through which flashes light.
Its effects are:
-
Visual stimulation: both fixation and visual following.
-
Tactile stimulation: the whole bundle as well as individual fibres. By softly rubbing them on the body, they produce tactile sensations.
How it works:
-
With one fibre, with a few or with all of them.
-
It can develop body scheme awareness.
WATER BED
The water bed allows users to feel and explore their body, facilitating well-being. It aims to decrease muscle tone with vestibular stimulation that occurs with the wave. Users can relax and reduce hypertonicity.
Effects:
-
Vestibular stimulation
-
Posture control
-
Tactile stimulation
-
Methods of relaxation
