The methodology
On a therapeutic rebounder, gentle rhythmic acceleration and deceleration load and unload the body in a controlled way. A therapist grades the movement to provoke balance, trunk and postural reactions.
Method · Apexi Bounce
Apexi Bounce.
Rebound therapy — controlled, rhythmic bouncing on a therapeutic trampoline that wakes up muscles, drives balance reactions and turns hard work into play.
What it is & why
Apexi Bounce, in plain terms.
Apexi Bounce is rebound therapy — using the controlled, forgiving surface of a trampoline to stimulate balance, tone, core activation and joyful, repetitive movement.
Why we use it. The bounce delivers rich sensory and vestibular input with low joint load — a motivating way to build tone, balance and stamina.
Activates core, tone & balance
Rich vestibular & sensory input
Low joint load, high motivation
Builds stamina through play
The how & the why
The how, and the why.
Why it helps
The rhythmic input activates muscles, stimulates the vestibular (balance) system and builds trunk control and endurance — all while the child is having fun, which keeps them working longer.
Candidacy
Is Apexi Bounce right for my child?
Which children benefit?
Children building trunk control, balance and activation — including low tone, coordination and sensory-motor profiles. We grade it carefully to each child.
Is it safe?
Yes — sessions are fully supported and graded by a trained therapist; the child is never left to bounce unsupervised.
How do we measure change?
Against balance, trunk-control and endurance goals — see assessment & tracking.
"Rebound turns activation into play — and a child who's enjoying the work will give you far more of it."
