    Hi my child had a OT assessment and she has sensory processing difficulties  her assessment seem to focus on her motor co-ordination and vestibular difficulties and fine motor  but the report doesn't say anything about her sensitivity to sounds which is a big problem. She needs ear defenders and regular breaks at school quiet time as she becomes over loaded and cannot filter environmental noises out.   Would this be a different assessment to get these reconmendations ?
