The rocking horse is designed to weigh as little as possible, and can be picked up easily by the therapist.

The horse is sold as part of a set including a suspension frame, which allows the number of points of suspension to be adjusted. This means it can be used for linear and rotational movement, as well as balancing and exercises.

It is used for developing bilateral motor co-ordination, balance reflexes, visuomotor co-ordination, tonic (especially labyrinthine) reflex integration, improving postural (flexor and extensor) muscle tone and general stimulation of the nervous system through strong activation of the vestibular and proprioceptive system receptors.

A fun way of doing Sensory Exercises and an essential part of any Sensory Diet prescribed by an Occupational Therapist.
