Physical Therapy: The Bolster Pony with Mobile Base
Children with Cerebral Palsy often have problems with abduction or scissoring" of the legs. Most positioners are boring and confining. Not the Bolster Pony though! Try setting up an indoor obstacle course with soft pillows to ride the pony through. It adds fun to the physical therapy workout!
