  This article looks at the challenges of sensory integration based OT to treat in a multifaceted fashion. The three types of treatments are used in SI therapy are environmental supports/adaptations, care-giver/parent focused interventions and child focused. Child focused are used most frequently among pediatric SI therapists. The article suggest the importance of using all three and looking through and SI lens but also treating things like skills and muscle strength when necessary. I have seen this in my fieldwork setting, We have several kids who have functional deficits that are a result of underlying sensory issues. Therefore, we treat the sensory issues often at the same time we are developing their functional skills. Regulating a child's sensory system often allows us to work on those functional skills more effectively.
