“Snoezelen” is relaxing and connecting, in a room designed to pleasantly stimulate the senses. 

To this end, objects, smells, colors, sounds and images are used. Targeted stimuli can be sought out in the multi sensory room.

The intensity of the stimuli is such that one is stimulated and challenged to explore, but not over-stimulated.

Who is snoezelen for?
A multi sensory room is often used to calm and relax individuals with autism. Snoezelen can also help people with other forms of neurodivergence, high sensitivity or an sensory processing disorder.

There is a multi sensory room at RINCON.

In case visitors of RINCON become overstimulated or just want to come to their senses with quiet focused stimuli, this is possible. Ask a volunteer if you can use the multi sensory room and if it is available, the volunteer will take you to the multi sensory room, where you can stay until you feel recharged.
