Abstract

Sensory integration in the school setting is crucial for students to be successful in the classroom. One role of an occupational therapist (OT) is to implement strategies for sensory regulation so children are able to be independent in their occupation as students. The weighted ball massage protocol (WBMP) is a modality that applies a deep pressure input to promote sensory regulation. There were 25 participants total in the study who received the WBMP with six receiving it once daily, three receiving it once a week and 16 twice daily. The results determined that the WBMP is an effective modality for sensory integration in the school setting. OTs would benefit from incorporating a deep pressure input modality, such as the WBMP, to increase sensory regulation in students.
