Lightweight and Portable Swing Frame for Children and Teenagers

Provides Vestibular Stimulation Therapy
The vestibular system is a sensory system that provides the body with a sense of balance, spatial orientation, and helps coordinate movement with balance. This system prompts the muscles to contract and relax depending on the amount of gravitational pull placed on the body. Developing children usually seek out vestibular input on their own, by jumping, swinging, walking on varied surfaces, and riding skateboards and bicycles. For children with special needs, parents need to find creative ways to provide vestibular input.
