#3 Challenging Your Balance with Movement Sitting on a Ball: Pediatric Physical Therapy Exercises

I love exercise balls. Add a ball in and kids will do twice the work with twice the laughs. And then they ask to do it again. On this playlist, my co-instructor, Leia, helps me teach ideas to improve balance, core strength, upper body strength, lower body strength, body awareness, coordination, timing, sensory awareness, and proximal shoulder and hip stability. In the meantime, we have a bunch of fun! I generally start from easier to harder activities over the course of this playlist. Please make sure you are careful! It can really hurt to fall off a ball. Use a mat to increase the safety. Use a spotter if needed. Start with easier activities and work up to the harder ones. I like to keep the ball safely stored out of the reach of children who might make poor choices with a ball. Some children are fearful on a ball, and some kids are fearless. Adult supervision is critical for safety. Leia is 10 years old. She makes many of these activities look easy, but trust me. They can be quite challenging.
These videos may be more helpful seen in order as I perform easier treatment techniques first. Here is the link to his playlist:

I also have 6 children's educational books addressing Autism, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Anxiety, and Encopresis and Enuresis. I now also have 3 professional books, "Pediatric Physical Therapy Exercises for the Hips," "Pediatric Physical Therapy Exercises for the Knees, and "Pediatric Physical Therapy Exercises for the Ankles." If you have questions or suggestions, don't hesitate to contact me at [e-mail]. Please note: I cannot provide treatment suggestions for a child I have not personally evaluated.

That is significantly delayed. I recommend you find a local therapist who can assist you. In the meantime, here is my transitioning to standing playlist. Transition In and Out of Standing kzbin.info/aero/PLAkJbMrHyKjM1llP4H__xPvtRv2S2ZvFz
