Summary
This online review assesses the quality of interventions to address sensory challenges in children on the autism spectrum. The review suggests that sensory integration therapy, massage, and environmental enrichment might produce modest and short-term benefits. Auditory integration approaches were ineffective, while insufficient evidence was found for music therapy and weighted blankets.
