What is Rebound Therapy?
Rebound Therapy is a visionary new therapy technique for intellectually and physically handicapped children, adolescents and learning disorder children. “Rebound Therapy” is a registered trademark in Great Britain (www.reboundtherapy.org) founded by E.G. Anderson in 1969. It describes the use of a trampoline in providing therapeutic exercise and recreation for people with a wide range of special needs.
Rebound Therapy is used to facilitate movement, promote balance, promote an increase or
decrease in muscle tone, promote relaxation, promote sensory integration, improve fitness and exercise tolerance and to improve communication skills.
Who can benefit from Rebound Therapy?
Participants range from mild to severe physical disabilities and from mild to profound and
multiple learning disabilities, including dual sensory impairment and autistic spectrum.
The current Rebound Therapy Programme caters for children who are school aged. Those below 6 are incorporated into our preschool program. Rebound Therapy thus caters for both children and adolescents.
