Wobble Cushion: Enhancing Balance, Core Strength, and Sensory Processing

The Wobble Cushion is a versatile therapeutic tool designed to enhance balance, coordination, core strength, and sensory processing.

• Balance and Coordination:

  • Postural Control: Sitting or standing on the unstable surface of the cushion requires constant adjustments to maintain balance and prevent falls, significantly enhancing postural control.
  • Dynamic Balance: Shifting weight on the cushion to maintain balance challenges dynamic balance and requires rapid adjustments to maintain stability.
  • Coordination: Coordinating movements of the legs, arms, and core with the movement of the cushion enhances coordination and motor planning.

• Proprioception:

  • Body Awareness: The constant shifting of weight on the cushion enhances proprioception, which is the sense of body position and movement in space.
  • Sensory Integration: Navigating the movement of the cushion integrates sensory information from various sources, including vision, proprioception, and vestibular input, enhancing sensory integration.

• Core Strength:

  • Core Engagement: Maintaining balance and controlling movement on the cushion requires significant engagement of core muscles, including abdominal and back muscles.

• Sensory Processing:

  • Sensory Seeking: For individuals who seek increased sensory input, the gentle movement and instability of the cushion can provide a calming and organizing sensory experience.

• Occupational Performance:

  • The Wobble Cushion can enhance a child's or adult's ability to participate in seated activities, improve posture, and enhance overall occupational performance.

The Wobble Cushion, with its compact and portable design, can be easily incorporated into various settings, including homes, classrooms, and therapy clinics.
