Results : The results of this study suggest that sensory integration therapy has a positive impact on children withtrichotillomania, as evidenced by improvements in the severity of hair pulling, sensory processing, occupationalperformance, and satisfaction scores.
Conclusion : These findings provide clinical evidence for the use of sensory integration therapy as an effectiveintervention for children with trichotillomania, and in addition, suggest potential methods for enhancingoccupational performance.
