Understanding the vestibular sense

The vestibular sense provides information about movement, changes in position and the relationship of our body to gravity. Rocking, swinging, turning or changing direction and speed stimulate this sensory system and contribute to our perception of movement and spatial orientation.

What you will find here

This category brings together resources that provide vestibular input through movement and can be used to support sensory regulation and wellbeing.

You will find:

  • Swings and suspended movement equipment.
  • Rocking and oscillating resources.
  • Equipment that allows controlled changes of position and movement.
  • Other resources designed to provide different types of vestibular input.

Vestibular needs vary considerably from one person to another. Some people actively seek movement, while others may be particularly sensitive to it.

The type, intensity and duration of movement should always be adapted to each person and situation.
