As described above,
MINI STANDY
is a valid tool for exercising certain functions with the correct
posture.
WE REMIND YOU ONCE AGAIN THAT THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN POSTURE AND
MOVEMENT IS THE FOUNDATION OF EVERY TYPE OF VOLUNTARY MOTOR BEHAVIOUR.
FOR THIS REASON, IMPOSING A CORRECT POSTURE PREVENTS DEFORMITIES AND, AT THE
SAME TIME, FAVOURS THE GENERATION OF MOTOR PATTERNS THAT ARE ESSENTIAL FOR
A RICH AND MEANINGFUL INTERACTION WITH THE PHYSICAL AND PSYCHO-SOCIAL
ENVIRONMENT.
ATTENTION!
These exercises must be performed under the supervision of a parent or authorized
and specialized personnel.
Remove all potential obstacles.
The manufacturer will not be liable for personal injuries or property damage resulting
