Like a gyroscope, our vestibular system communicates with our central nervous system, (the instrument panel) to give us critical information to process where we are in space. When in good working order, we know if we are moving fast or slow, if upside down or right side up, and the direction we are going .

Produktbeschreibung
Like a gyroscope, our vestibular system communicates with our central nervous system, (the instrument panel) to give us critical information to process where we are in space. When in good working order, we know if we are moving fast or slow, if upside down or right side up, and the direction we are going . From the connections of our vestibular system to our sensory and motor system, we can regulate internally, appreciate and modulate incoming sounds, touch, taste, hearing and move correctly for the task presented. Like a gyroscope, if our vestibular system is not working as it should, our instrument panel, (our central nervous system) connections may give us faulty information. We may not correctly interpret sensory information or movement requirements and have errors with resultant responses. This field guide gives explanations of our own human gyroscope, ( the vestibular system) and the connective links to the foundations of development. Presented are insights into the "what, why and how" questions posed from therapy practitioners, teachers and educators, medical personnel, family members and caregivers who work with or live with individuals who have motor, sensory and educational challenges. Provided are tools, strategies and perspectives to help fill in gaps and "connect the dots."
