What kinds of difficulties is your child having? When my DD was

younger she had issues with balance and even feeling her body in the

correct way regarding her balance. She screamed in fear when she

learned to sit, stand, walk, and even until about 6 months ago was VERy

fearful of our driveway that had a slight incline. Any type

babalance/movement things were (and still sometimes are) hard for her.

She also tended to fall a lot and will be missing a front tooth until

she is 6 or 7 due to one of her big falls.... We did a lot of tossing

her around in cirlces, upside down, bouncing on a ball, slowly getting

her used to the swing on a swing set, etc (all through OT when she was

younger) We also brushed her and did joint compressions during this

time too.... She is so much more at ease with these things than she

used to be. I hope this is useful for you as i am not sure what kinds

of issues you are running into. Today she loves to run up and down the

driveway fearlessly and mommy is not so worried about her falling

either....

Darcy,

Yes, my son has an immature vestibule system. It is important to do lots of

OT. We are spinning in a chair 3x one way 3x the other way for 3 min 2x per

day. So he can get dizzy.

Hope this helps,

Who is the proper person to go to evaluate for vestibule system?   None of my

son's professionals mention vestibule being a problem for my son but I suspect

that it is.  He always has difficulty getting on the swings in the park.   He PT

wrote " requires frequent verbal cues to visually scan his environment to avoid

obstacle.   Thank you, .

I believe the OT will evaluate the vestibular system during an

initial eval and track progress through the therapy sessions. The

neurologist would be able to assess it but may not routinely do it.

Hope that helps. Kris
