Haley’s Joy Balance Buddy Bolster Swing, Size 2: Straddling Swing for Core and Balance
The Balance Buddy Bolster Swing (Size 2) is a padded bolster that students straddle for vestibular swinging with significant core engagement. Straddling the bolster requires constant balance adjustments and trunk activation, making it one of the most effective swing types for building core strength alongside vestibular input.
Therapeutic Benefits
- Vestibular input — linear and rotary swinging in a straddling position
