The Southpaw Bolster Scooter is ideal for schools and clinics that work with individuals who struggle with sensory integration. The Bolster Scooter is a versatile and engaging tool that can help children and adults improve their physical abilities while having fun.
One of the primary benefits of the Bolster Scooter is its ability to promote extension patterns and bilateral motor coordination. By sitting on the scooter and moving around with their arms and feet, clients can develop their balance reactions and improve their core strength. This is especially helpful for those who struggle with sensory processing, as the movement of the scooter can help to organise their sensory input and provide a calming effect.
The Bolster Scooter comes in two sizes - large and small - and both are made with high-quality materials that meet government regulations for safety. The Baltic Birch base is sturdy and can support a working load of up to 90kg, while the foam half-barrel is covered in phthalate-free and lead-free vinyl to ensure that it is safe for use by individuals of all ages.
In addition to its physical benefits, the Bolster Scooter is also a lot of fun to use. Clients can race each other across the room, or simply enjoy the sensation of moving around on a wheeled surface. This can be a great way to engage children who are resistant to traditional therapy methods, and can help them to develop a positive association with their therapy sessions.
Sitting astride the Bolster Scooter's movable surface aids development of balance reactions. Add a little fun to your therapy sessions, and let your clients position in prone, as they see how fast they can go using their arms and feet to propel them across the room. Or have them sit upright, hold on to the wooden handle, and practice walking.
