What Is The Wilbarger Protocol?
A deep pressure technique aimed at normalizing sensory processing and reducing sensory defensiveness. It improves an individual’s ability to function effectively in social, educational, and daily environments.
How?
✔️ Firm Pressure: Use the brush with firm, even strokes. Avoid sweeping motions.
✔️ Consistency: Brush horizontally, moving slowly with enough pressure to move the skin.
✔️ Clothing vs. Skin: Brush over either clothing or bare skin but avoid transitioning directly between the two.
✔️ Hygiene: Ensure each individual has their own brush.
✔️ Environment: Perform brushing in a calm, quiet area with the individual seated and informed about the procedure.
When To Use Sensory Brushing?
Sensory brushing can be a crucial component of a sensory diet and is best used during:
➡️ Preparation for Busy Environment: Before a social event, such as a party or holiday gathering, to regulate the nervous system.
➡️ Bedtime Routine: Helps signal the brain and body to wind down for sleep.
➡️ Parent-Child Bonding: Offers an excellent opportunity for connection and trust.
