Thanks ElizabethN and polarbear! Proper terms would help! I would suppose this is why I didn't not find much searching Google. Like I said, I only had a few minute conversation with the therapist (with a screaming 5 week old in my ear) so I still don't know very much. I'm still a little confused because my DD doesn't seem to have any motor skill delay. In fact, she has been ahead with all her milestones and started writing letters when she was 20 months old, but she does, however, have a little trouble with front-to-back balance. More research is in order!

My DD also had her first visit with a chiropractor yesterday and she said her neck was in really rough shape and the nerves that control some of the functions she is having sensory issues with (balance, among others) is what was worst. She said we may start to see her sensory issues improve somewhat with chiropractic treatment.
