Understanding Vestibular Input

The following is an actual transcript. We do our best to make sure the transcript is as accurate as possible, however, it may contain spelling or grammatical errors.  We suggest you watch the video while reading the transcript.

In this episode, we tackle a common issue faced by parents of 7-month-old babies: difficulty sitting upright unassisted. Learn how a lack of proper vestibular input—specifically, axial vs. horizontal vestibular input—can affect your baby’s development. Discover practical techniques, such as using a physioball, storage tub, or snow saucer, to provide the necessary vestibular input and help your baby overcome gravitational insecurity. If you’re a pediatric chiropractor looking to deepen your expertise, find out more about our Foundations of Neural Development Certification course.
