More Than A Gym on Instagram: "Steamroller: Providing proprioceptive input with a therapy ball rolled over body to organize the nervous system!

Have your child lay down in a comfortable position and roll the therapy ball up and down their body applying firm pressure. Proprioceptive input is one of our hidden senses (we have 8 senses total). This system provides a sense of body awareness by sending messages to receptors in our muscles and joints. They tell our bodies what each body part is doing, where our bodies are in space, and how it is moving. Providing this input helps organize the nervous system which can aid in calming children who are overstimulated or increase alertness to aid in attention.

**Check in with your child to see if they want more or less pressure **

Adam Griffin on Instagram: "An amazing little balance exercise that boosts both motor coordination and self-regulation! 💪🧠   Perfect for helping kids stay cool and composed while improving their physical skills.   In the video, you'll see me use a small weighted ball (1lb) as it's slightly squishy, more stable and easier to contorl. Then, you'll see me use a small tennis ball for an older kiddo for a significantly greater challenge.   #BalanceTraining  #MotorSkills  #SelfRegulation  #occupationaltherapy #schoolbasedot #activitiesforkids" Preschool Indoor Activities, Kids Brain Games, Pediatric Physical Therapy Activities, School Based Therapy, Coordination Exercises, Sensory Path, Coordination Activities, Play Doctor, Pediatric Pt

NeuroFit Kids | Bianca Mendonça, PT, DPT, PCS, CLC| Carlsbad, CA on Instagram: "A few tips and considerations ✅ note size of ball here. The larger the exercise ball, the more stability provided for the child. A smaller ball was not the right fit for this little one. Be mindful of height as we do want the trunk and shoulder girdle muscles to be active ✅child should have already started some level of side-stepping with support of arms (cruising) or practice of lateral weight shifting as tolerated before progressing forward. ✅ If child is not ready for this, consider starting with pre-walking exercises using a therapy ball instead (go to my profile and easily find my reel on that!) ___ Hi 👋 I’m a board-certified pediatric doctor of physical therapy who’s obsessed with tiny humans and all Peds Physical Therapy, Baby Head Shape, Pediatric Doctor, Walking Exercises, Pediatric Physical Therapy Activities, Shoulder Girdle, Pediatric Pt, Therapy Ball, Pediatric Physical Therapy
