How to use the profile: practical guide<\/h2>\n<h3>3.1 Administration in 4 stages<\/h3>\n<div class=\"nc\">\n<div class=\"nb\">1<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>Choose the right moment<\/h4>\n<pee>Calm discussion with the family \u2014 not during a meal, not immediately after a food crisis. A serene moment ensures more precise and reliable responses.<\/pee><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nc\">\n<div class=\"nb\">2<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>Fill out with the family, complete with clinical observations<\/h4>\n<pee>The family sees daily meals. The professional completes with their clinical observations. The combination of the two sources provides a more complete and reliable profile.<\/pee><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nc\">\n<div class=\"nb\">3<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>Be precise about examples of concrete foods<\/h4>\n<pee>&#8220;Refuses yogurts but accepts fresh cheeses&#8221; is much more useful than &#8220;sensitive to soft textures.&#8221; Precision allows for the construction of a realistic food hierarchy based on the child&#8217;s daily life.<\/pee><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nc\">\n<div class=\"nb\">4<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>Distinguish hypersensitivity and hyposensitivity<\/h4>\n<pee>This distinction is crucial for therapeutic strategies. A child who is hypersensitive to texture needs a reduction in stimulation; a child who is hyposensitive seeks foods with high sensory intensity.<\/pee><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>3.2 In speech therapy session<\/h3>\n<div class=\"ub\">\n<h4>\ud83c\udfaf In the initial assessment: establish the baseline<\/h4>\n<pee>From the first session, the profile establishes a precise picture of food sensitivities. This baseline will be the reference for measuring progress in subsequent re-evaluations.<\/pee><\/div>\n<div class=\"ub\">\n<h4>\ud83c\udfaf During monitoring: build the food hierarchy<\/h4>\n<pee>The profile guides the construction of the food hierarchy \u2014 from the most accepted foods to the most difficult ones. The progression always starts from the sensory comfort zone identified in the profile.<\/pee><\/div>\n<div class=\"ub\">\n<h4>\ud83c\udfaf In re-evaluation: measure progress<\/h4>\n<pee>Every 2-3 months, a new re-evaluation column is completed. The comparison makes progress visible \u2014 even subtle \u2014 and keeps the motivation of the family and child high in a process that is often long.<\/pee><\/div>\n<div class=\"tip\">\n<div class=\"ico\">\ud83d\udca1<\/div>\n<pee><strong>Practical tip:<\/strong> Take a photo of the completed profile and share it via email with all the professionals involved.

The thematic guide explores the clinical context of sensory eating disorders in depth \u2014 populations, mechanisms, strategies for profiling. It is aimed at someone looking to understand oral disorders. This article &#8220;presentation and use&#8221; focuses on the structure of the tool \u2014 its sections, administration phases, and uses by professionals. It is aimed at someone who wants to know exactly what the tool contains before downloading it. Both are complementary.<\/pee><\/div>\n<div class=\"fi\">\n<h4><span>Q2<\/span> Is the profile reliable without specialized training in oral disorders?<\/h4>\n<pee>The profile is designed to be usable by non-specialists \u2014 particularly families and generalist professionals. However, clinical interpretation (distinguishing sensory causes from medical causes, guiding the therapeutic plan) requires specialized expertise. Families use it to observe and structure; generalists to detect and guide; specialists for comprehensive clinical assessment.<\/pee><\/div>\n<div class=\"fi\">\n<h4><span>Q3<\/span> Can the profile be used with adults?<\/h4>\n<pee>Yes \u2014 oral disorders are not limited to children. The profile is relevant for autistic adults with persistent food selectivity, adults with eating disorders after Stroke, and adults with undiagnosed sensory integration disorders in childhood. Some sections (history of solid food introduction) do not apply, but the core of the tool \u2014 mapping current sensitivities \u2014 remains entirely relevant.<\/pee><\/div>\n<div class=\"fi\">\n<h4><span>Q4<\/span> How to explain the profile to a child without it seeming like a &#8220;test&#8221;?<\/h4>\n<pee>For children aged 6-7 years and older, present it as &#8220;a survey of tastes&#8221; \u2014 there are no right or wrong answers. For younger children, the profile is completed solely by observing adults. The goal is to gather objective information, never to put the child through a test.<\/pee><\/div>\n<div class=\"fi\">\n<h4><span>Q5<\/span> How often should the profile be updated?<\/h4>\n<pee>During active work, every 2-3 months. Outside of active monitoring, an annual reassessment is sufficient for children whose profile evolves naturally. A significant event (change of school, illness, medication) justifies an occasional reassessment. Keeping all dated versions allows for viewing long-term evolution.<\/pee><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<footer>\n  <pee>DYNSEO \u2014 Free tools for professionals and families<\/pee>\n<div

The thematic guide explores the clinical context of sensory eating disorders in depth \u2014 populations, mechanisms, strategies for profiling. It is aimed at someone looking to understand oral disorders. This article \"presentation and use\" focuses on the structure of the tool \u2014 its sections, administration phases, and uses by professionals. It is aimed at someone who wants to know exactly what the tool contains before downloading it. Both are complementary.<\/p><\/div>\n    <div class=\"fi\"><h4><span>Q2<\/span> Is the profile reliable without specialized training in oral disorders?<\/h4><p>The profile is designed to be usable by non-specialists \u2014 particularly families and generalist professionals. However, clinical interpretation (distinguishing sensory causes from medical causes, guiding the therapeutic plan) requires specialized expertise. Families use it to observe and structure; generalists to detect and guide; specialists for comprehensive clinical assessment.<\/p><\/div>\n    <div class=\"fi\"><h4><span>Q3<\/span> Can the profile be used with adults?<\/h4><p>Yes \u2014 oral disorders are not limited to children. The profile is relevant for autistic adults with persistent food selectivity, adults with eating disorders after Stroke, and adults with undiagnosed sensory integration disorders in childhood. Some sections (history of solid food introduction) do not apply, but the core of the tool \u2014 mapping current sensitivities \u2014 remains entirely relevant.<\/p><\/div>\n    <div class=\"fi\"><h4><span>Q4<\/span> How to explain the profile to a child without it seeming like a \"test\"?<\/h4><p>For children aged 6-7 years and older, present it as \"a survey of tastes\" \u2014 there are no right or wrong answers. For younger children, the profile is completed solely by observing adults. The goal is to gather objective information, never to put the child through a test.<\/p><\/div>\n    <div class=\"fi\"><h4><span>Q5<\/span> How often should the profile be updated?<\/h4><p>During active work, every 2-3 months. Outside of active monitoring, an annual reassessment is sufficient for children whose profile evolves naturally. A significant event (change of school, illness, medication) justifies an occasional reassessment. Keeping all dated versions allows for viewing long-term evolution.<\/p><\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<footer>\n  <p>DYNSEO \u2014 Free tools for professionals and families<\/p>\n  <div class=\"fl\">\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dynseo.com\/nos-outils\/profil-alimentaire-sensoriel\/\">Sensory Food Profile<\/a>\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dynseo.com\/nos-outils\/journal-repas-oralite\/\">Meal Log<\/a>\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dynseo.com\/nos-outils\/\">All Tools<\/a>\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dynseo.com\/nos-formations\/\">Trainings<\/a>\n  <\/div>\n<\/footer>\n<\/div>[\/et_pb_code][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2915],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-723441","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-les-conseils-des-coachs"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Sensory Food Profiles: What Are They For and How to Use Them?
