TSMT model training is justified in cases where the symptoms of abnormal development can be attributed to organic causes and/or sensory processing disorders. Regression training, purpose of application: to reduce symptoms caused by organic immaturity, to facilitate the experience of one's own experiences and movements, and to develop motor responses appropriate to different situations.
