Page 1 of 7 The Bolles Sensory Learning Method is an innovative noncognitive approach to developmental learning that utilizes Enhanced Natural Sensory Stimulation for remediation of an individual’s Emergent Faculties. The brain’s ability to process and organize sensations of sight, sound, and gravity begins to emerge in the womb and continues into adolescence. Sensory Stimulation plays a major role in shaping the structure and functioning of the brain. The brain can be thought of as a sensory processing machine. By stimulating the senses we can enhance emergent faculties–normal subconscious sensory functioning in the brainstem area.
This educational method is highly successful across a wide spectrum of populations because “our brains are more alike than they are different.” It is a therapy that accelerates sensory integration and develops learning abilities for individuals with acquired brain injury, learning/behavioral problems, ADD/ADHD, developmental delays, Autism, and birth trauma.
This approach re-educates Emergent Faculties by stimulating the participant’s sensory systems to learn or relearn subconscious reception, processing and integration skills. The beneficial outcomes of the Bolles Sensory Learning Method are long lasting and continue to accrue over time.
The therapy modality uses key elements of three well-established sensory stimulation therapies combined into one simultaneous sensory experience. Combining the three modalities of Photo Stimulation, Acoustic Stimulation, and Vestibular Stimulation has remarkably accelerated sensory integration and rehabilitation processes for participants.
A movement table delivering vestibular stimulation primes and unifies the nervous system arousing the brainstem area. When combined with colored light frequencies and modulated sound frequencies, the computer-controlled instrumentation provides sessions that are at once kinesthetic, integrative, and desensitizing.
