What's Included?
Advantages of a T-Bar Seat
The Sensory T-Bar Balance Seat is less challenging than sitting on the Balance Ball as it only moves from side-to-side, meaning it's better for improving balance in kids who really struggle with body awareness. It also has the advantage of being a discreet seat for a child to use during carpet time by providing movement input without allowing bouncing.
Helps Improve Posture
Many children sit slouched over in a position that is called a posterior pelvic tilt, which can lead to serious back problems later in life. The postural position that the T-Bar Balance Seat facilitates greatly improves posture by encouraging elongation of the spine and making it comfortable to hold their hips, knees and ankles all at 90 degrees.
What Are the Benefits of Sensory Balance Chairs?
Sitting on a balance chair requires you to engage your core muscles in order to stay balanced, increasing your abdominal strength and improving posture. As well as the numerous physical benefits, there are also mental benefits such as increased focus, improved memory and better emotional regulation.
How Do Balance Chairs Help with ADHD?
Balance chairs help people with ADHD retain focus by providing a consistent level of proprioceptive sensory feedback. Proprioceptive input gives you an awareness of your own body by detecting the sensation of force or pressure, which has been shown to help people with ADHD or sensory processing disorders to increase their focus and attention span.
What Age Is the T-Bar Seat Suitable For?
The T-Bar Seat is suitable for children aged 3 years and older. This product should be used under the supervision of a responsible adult at all times.
