This OTA recorded webinar explored Tina Champagne’s Sensory Modulation Program Component 5: Environmental enhancements. The webinar focused on creating sensory spaces: the landmark sensory room, sensory gardens and other types of sensory supportive spaces. Tina Champagne provided an overview of the history, purpose, benefits, evidence-based examples and practical guidance on creating sensory rooms and spaces.  Participants will learn how to design and use these sensory enhanced environments with diverse populations including children, adults, older adults, and across different settings. Explore how sensory environments can support a variety of therapeutic outcomes, including occupational participation. This session also highlights how these environmental enhancements align with trauma and attachment-informed care practices, ensuring that sensory spaces are therapeutic and person-centered.

Learning Objectives: At the end of this session, you will be able to:

• Identify key design principles for sensory rooms, sensory gardens, and spaces that support sensory modulation for optimal occupational participation across the lifespan.
