Sensory processing

Sensory processing is the way our nervous system receives messages from our senses, turning them into motor or behavioural responses. The ability to receive and process sensory information from our environment can impact attachment, speech and language, motor coordination and our day-to-day living skills.

Main sensory systems

Sensory information includes the five senses: 

  • visual (sight), 
  • auditory (hearing), 
  • tactile (touch), 
  • olfactory (smell) 
  • gustatory (taste). 

There are also three further senses:

  • vestibular (balance)
  • proprioceptive (body awareness)
  • interoceptive (bodily needs such as hunger or body temperature)
