Enhancing Motor Skills and Sensory Integration in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder through Physical Therapy: A Comprehensive Review of Techniques and Outcomes

Author(s) Lajibhai Makwana
Country United States
Abstract Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder associated with the difficulty of communication, social interaction, and repetitive or obsessive behaviors. In addition to core ASD features, these children are usually characterized by motor dysfunction and frequent sensory integration
problems that drastically limit their presentation of daily skills, social relationships, and developmental progress. Evaluation and treatment of these deficits have been realized through physical therapy (PT), which is globally board-recognized as an effective, non-invasive, and research-based protocol. This paper also revisits studies of motor coordination, sensory integration, and functional independence that PT has made in children with ASD. The paper discusses various forms of PT, such as gross motor development, fine motor coordination, balance, and sensory-motor strategies. These therapies evidenced in the paper show the positive effects on motor planning, sensory integration, and the overall quality of life of children with ASD. Nevertheless, PT is not without its challenges: precise and extensive variations in the therapeutic result, low availability of specialized services, and little or inadequate research information concerning therapeutic endurance and causality. In this way, it is possible to work through the indicated limitations and include additional innovations in the practice of physical therapy to facilitate improvements that will help children with ASD cope with motor and sensory problems
