A Step Ahead Pediatric Therapy

A Step Ahead Pediatric Therapy At A Step Ahead, we realize that special needs not only affect the child, but the entire family as well.

Founded in 2006, A Step Ahead Pediatric Therapy is a comprehensive pediatric rehabilitation practice that provides quality therapy services to children with developmental needs in the Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati area. Our goal is to ease this difficulty by working with each child and their family to achieve self sufficiency through increased independence. We work toward objectives that apply directly to the child as well as build a custom program that will help the parent create therapeutic opportunities for their child outside of therapy sessions.

FACT FILLED FRIDAY

Vestibular input is a type of movement is a powerful tool in therapy and at home. It can calm or excite, depending on the individual/time/movement/environment/sensory need. Vestibular sensory input can be alerting or calming to our nervous systems, allowing us to learn, interact with others, and go through our day.

We have a blog post that explains everything you need to know about vestibular processing and the vestibular system. Let’s move! https://www.theottoolbox.com/vestibular-activities/

We're raising the first generation with underdeveloped vestibular systems.

Walk into any kindergarten. You'll see children who struggle to jump through a hopscotch path, swing independently, balance across low beams without falling off, sit sedentary in the sandpit, and feel lost during transitions.

What has changed?

Movement opportunities.

Previous generations climbed trees, rode bikes everywhere, constantly had a ball in their hand, lived on playground equipment, and wrestled/played 'stacks on' with siblings.

Current generation watches screens, sits in car seats, does sedentary structured activities at a table, and stays indoors.

The result? Poor core strength affecting handwriting. Short attention spans because they need movement to focus. Increased anxiety because movement calms the nervous system. Motor delays from missed critical development windows.

We are not anti-technology. We are pro-development. We don't have to say no to screens, we just need to make sure children are still able to build the foundation skills that they need.-maddison harrison
