Around the clock Support for everyday life Children develop their own personality very early in life. They observe, feel, taste and smell the world from the time they get up until they go to bed - everyday. Special children do this in special ways. They need mobility solutions tailored to their particular needs. Mobility – over which he or she has as much control as possible – is crucial not only for your child's physical development, but also for comprehensive impressions of the environment and social interaction. Prepared for every situation during the day: Eating & Drinking Lying &...

Eating & Drinking Breakfast – support for the whole day Wake up! It's a new day. Breakfast is on the table. We start the morning calmly and get energy for the whole day. Eating and drinking are elementary human activities – and are also communicative. Ottobock and Leckey seating systems and therapy seats support the body and straighten the pelvis to prevent faulty posture which hinders your child while eating and drinking. Upright posture on the other hand actively helps your child and is nearly indispen-sable for children with swallowing disorders (see info box). Breakfast with the family...

• Dysphagia In dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), coordination between muscles, joints and salivary glands, which is normally controlled by reflex, is impaired. It is often associated with poor head and body posture. Devices ensure proper positioning and posture. Children with dysphagia require 24-hour supervision to prevent serious complications such as refusal to eat, malnutrition and dehydration, fever, bronchitis and aspiration (inhaling food with the respective consequences).

Lying & Grasping First activities – the best starting position for life The world is a large, fascinating place. Especially when observed while lying down. After just a few weeks, your child begins to explore the world – and move. Every different position opens up new, interesting perspectives to the child. If a child is not able to mobilise himself/herself and later sit, he/she needs devices that support it, for example EAS and ESS from Ottobock und Leckey. They allow him or her to physically observe the new position and train it through "familiarisation". This has a positive effect on the...

See the Early Activity System (EAS) therapy handbook for...

Stretch your hand out flat and grasp your child's shoulders. Ensure that the child's arms are moved forward as well, and that your thumbs do not dig into your child's armpits. • ifting correctly L Children do not straighten up directly from lying on their back. That would be far too strenuous and put a lot of strain on the spine. All children first turn on their side or even get on all fours. Therefore, it is important to ensure that you always turn your child on his/her side before lifting him/her. You do not even have to support the child's head, because you are working with gravity when...

Buggy or rehab stroller? What do you need? There is no single answer to this question, as the selection always depends on the needs of your child. You can differentiate grossly between a buggy and a rehab stroller.
