Résumé :	Statement of context People with juvenile Huntington's disease often experience difficulty engaging in occupations due to neuropsychiatric sequelae, such as impulse control difficulties, agitation and aggression. Occupational therapy using sensory modulation intervention strategies may be utilised to assuage behavioural symptoms in this population. Critical reflection on practice Through case reports, this practice analysis explores changes in occupational performance for two young adults diagnosed with juvenile Huntington's disease who received sensory modulation treatment. Implications for practice These inspiring reports could encourage occupational therapists to consider sensory modulation intervention to decrease psychiatric disturbance, thus optimising performance capacity among this rare population.
