Sensory Slide

650.00

The Sensory Scooter Slide is a versatile piece of therapy equipment designed to support postural reflexes, balance, and motor development in children. Along with the slide, it includes a specially mounted line and pegs, broadening its functionality and providing multiple opportunities for sensory and motor activities.

This slide is particularly effective in stimulating basal sensory systems, helping to develop and modify postural reflexes such as equilibrium reactions, background postural reflexes, orienting responses, and defensive responses.

Description

For added benefits, the slide can be used in combination with the Sensory Integration Skateboard to stimulate the vestibular system’s linear movement receptors. It’s excellent for strengthening extensor muscles, developing primitive reflexes, improving motor planning, and supporting visual reflexes like convergence.

Children can also use the slide to improve core and upper body strength. Pulling themselves up the ramp with the wide design allows them to turn the scooter completely, encouraging grip, trunk, and upper body development.

The Sensory Scooter Slide is both therapeutic and fun, making it an ideal tool for paediatric occupational therapists. It provides vestibular and proprioceptive stimulation while helping children develop motor skills, motor planning, and visual perception as they scan and navigate the ramp.

Key Benefits:

  • Stimulates basal sensory systems, supporting overall sensory development.
  • Helps develop and modify postural reflexes, improving balance and coordination.
  • Provides vestibular and proprioceptive sensory input, making it a valuable occupational therapy tool.
  • Strengthens extensor muscles, supports motor planning, and aids development of certain eye reflexes.
