While the SOI modules, CD-Rom activities, and other materials do cognitive training (based upon the proven theory that intelligence can be developed) sensory integration integrates the senses of balance, vision, hearing, focusing, and more. Sensory integration builds perceptual readiness for better learning. Learners of all ages benefit from these fun exercises.
Positive Learning Solutions is a licensed SOI-IPP Center; licensed through Dr. Robert Meeker, SOI Systems. IPP (Integrated Practice Protocol) is a personalized learning therapy that builds the working together of different perceptual functions. Without sensory integration, the way many struggling students take in information is garbled, scrambled, or confused. Sometimes the root problem of a “slow learner” is that the visual or auditory processing functions are not developed. IPP includes personalized vision and auditory components as well. (Note: When to refer to a deveopmental optometrist or audiologist is built into the assessments)Â
 Sensory integration exercises can also be done at home–and this is highly recommended. Marcia has also taken the advanced training by Dr. Frank Belgau. The Balance Board, a cornerstone of Dr. Belgau’s Learning Breakthrough Program, as well as SOI-IPP, provides unique brain stimulation in the inner ear. It helps:
- Develop and fine-tune brain connectors and processes
- Vision, listening, reading, speech, focusing, attention, writing, memory, sports abilities, and more.
- Increase the effectiveness of any other brain-training, such as SOI modules and vision therapy.
- Every member of the family sharpen abilities
- Those struggling with any aspect of dysintegral learning problems, perceptual problems, or Attention Deficit related behavior.
 Sensory Integration with the Belgau Balance equipment and/or with SOI/IPP is highly recommended, and is an integral part of the SOI program. Â
 You may order Belgau equipment from Positive Learning Solutions for the same prices as from the Balametrics website. We will also include a 2 page summary of suggestions for successful Balance Board use–how to get started, how to step onto it, what settings to use, and suggested activities.
