Brushing Therapy Reviews

Show: for
It helped when we did it and she seemed to be doing fine.We stopped the treatment and she did well. As she started to make progress in other areas she has digressed and is now not feeling the need to use the toilet thus she is wetting herself a lot. We have started doing the brushing again but it didn't appear to be working so the OT told me to start brushing her every 20 minutes to see if that helps.

Loves the sensory input from brushing! Very calming.
We don't really need this anymore, but early on it worked very well.
The brushing worked very well with, Tristan, for several years. ( 3-5)
There were no adverse side effects.
