This week on The Roe Show, I sit down with Paul Kaye, a leading sports therapist and CEO at Rebound Therapy International Ltd. We talk about the many benefits of using trampolines for therapy across all spectrum of special needs and he explains the Rebound Therapy program along with some fun stories and what he has learned working with both young children and adults alike.
The phrase 'Rebound Therapy’ was coined by the founder, Eddy Anderson in 1969 to describe the use of trampolines in providing opportunities for movement, therapeutic exercise and recreation for people across the whole spectrum of special needs. The program uses trampolines to provide therapeutic exercises to people with a wide variety of disabilities and additional needs. The therapy involves using the moving bed of the trampoline to promote movement in the participant. By carrying out basic through to highly technical physiotherapy techniques on the trampoline, the therapy can provide many therapeutic and physiological benefits:
Facilitate and promote movement and balance, Improve fitness, Increase or decrease muscle tone, Help relax the participant, Improve sensory integration, Improve concentration and even improve communication skills.
