“La estimulación vestibular y el desarrollo motriz grueso en niños de 1 a 2 años de edad del centro de estimulación temprana neurokids”.

Abstract

The research is based on the theme "Vestibular stimulation and gross motor development in children 1 to 2 years of age of the Neurokids Early Stimulation Center", the study population corresponds to 10 children, in an age range of 1 to 2 years; of which 8 belong to the female sex and 2 infants are male. To obtain the necessary data and information, the Brunet-Lezine Test is used, which focuses on 4 areas of development that are presented in consecutive and recurrent order such as: perceptive-manipulative, cognitive, language and social area; with emphasis on the assessment of the manipulative perceptual area, gross motor area, postural control, coordination, balance and turns; as well as the fine motor area, through the manipulation of objects. With an initial evaluation (pretest), to determine the level of psychomotor development of children under study, from the application of vestibular stimulation exercises aimed at gross motor development. A second take (posttest) is made, which allows the results of the two assessments made with the Brunet-Lezine Test to be compared, after the intervention carried out by the professional in early stimulation of the Neurokids Center, through the application of a program of vestibular stimulation exercises, for the gross motor development of the infant population of 1 to 2 years. The results obtained from the research show a significant increase in the development of motor skills such as: balance, coordination, body control and laterality. It conclude the importance of vestibular stimulation from early ages, which allows us to detect and interpret the position and direction of our body, regulates the sense of movement and balance, to promote the child's overall development, in order to improve their learning
