Astronaut Board - Vestibular Spin Board - Padded

The JDEN Astronaut Board - Vestibular Spin Board is a professional-grade rotation board designed for vestibular therapy activities used by occupational therapists, physiotherapists and families running home therapy programs.

Manufactured in Australia using premium European birch plywood and a precision bearing system, the JDEN board provides smooth, controlled spinning required for vestibular training activities.
 
Unlike inexpensive plastic spin boards often sold online, the JDEN board is built to withstand daily use in therapy clinics while remaining practical for home therapy programs.
 
It is designed to support the activities used in Astronaut Training: A Sound-Activated Vestibular-Visual Protocol for Moving, Looking, and Listening, as conducted by Mary Kawar & Sheila Frick, while providing therapists and families with a stable, high-quality spinning platform.

Designed for Therapists, Clinics and Parents
The JDEN Astronaut Board is used in:
   • paediatric physiotherapy clinics
   • occupational therapy clinics
   • sensory integration therapy rooms
   • early intervention centres
   • schools and early learning centres
   • home therapy programs recommended by therapists
Parents often purchase vestibular boards to continue therapy exercises between clinic visits, helping children practice important sensory and coordination activities at home.
 
Why Quality Matters in Vestibular Therapy Equipment
Many spinning boards available online are plastic sit-and-spin toys designed for play.
These products often:
   • wobble during rotation
   • wear quickly in clinic environments
   • have a seat that is curved and not compatible with therapy protocols
   • have a high centre of gravity, which has a risk of toppling or spinning off, causing injury
   • lack the stability required for therapy
   • provide an inconsistent spinning motion
The JDEN Astronaut Board is professional therapy equipment, designed for stability, durability and consistent movement.
This is particularly important when therapists and parents are providing controlled vestibular stimulation activities.
 
Premium Materials and Construction
Birch Plywood Construction: The board is manufactured from high-quality European birch plywood, a material widely used in professional equipment because of its strength and resistance to warping.
Precision Bearing System: The integrated bearing system provides smooth, controlled rotation, which is essential for vestibular activities where predictable movement is important.
Square Base for Stability: The square "wide base" improves stability and prevents unwanted movement during spinning activities.
Made in Australia: Each board is manufactured locally, ensuring quality materials and workmanship.
 
Built for Professional Therapy Environments
Therapy clinics require equipment that can withstand frequent daily use by multiple clients.
The JDEN Astronaut Board has been designed to provide:
   • consistent spinning motion
   • durable construction
   • long service life
   • stable support during therapy activities
This makes it suitable for both professional therapy clinics and home therapy programs.
 
Available Variants
Standard Astronaut Board
A high-quality European birch plywood spin board designed for seated vestibular activities.
Padded Astronaut Board
Includes commercial-grade marine vinyl padding surface for increased comfort and durability.(Marine vinyl is commonly used in medical and marine environments because it is a commercial-grade marine vinyl-padded) 
• durable
• easy to clean
• resistant to wear
This version is particularly popular among therapy clinics and families who regularly use the board.
 
Expand Therapy Activities with the Universal Therapy Board
The JDEN Universal Therapy Board is a larger padded accessory designed to sit on top of the standard Astronaut Board.
This creates a larger surface area, allowing children to lie flat while rotating.
This enables additional activities such as:
• prone vestibular stimulation
• supine spinning activities
• full-body rotational exercises
This accessory significantly expands the range of therapy activities possible.
 
Compatible with Astronaut Training Activities
The JDEN Astronaut Board provides the spinning platform used for many vestibular activities within the Astronaut Training program.
The therapy protocol is delivered through specialised training and materials, but the JDEN board provides the stable, rotating platform used during the program's movement components.
 
Therapy Benefits
Vestibular activities using rotation boards are commonly used to challenge and develop:
Balance: Spinning activities challenge the body’s balance systems.
Coordination: Children must stabilise their bodies during movement.
Spatial Awareness: Vestibular stimulation supports spatial orientation.
Visual Tracking: Activities may include tracking objects while rotating.
Postural Control: Children learn to maintain upright posture during movement.
 
Example Therapy Activities
Therapists and parents can incorporate the board into activities such as:
   • seated spinning with visual tracking
   • reach and grab tasks while rotating
   • object tracking games
   • balance challenges
   • prone spinning activities using the universal therapy board
These exercises can be incorporated into play-based therapy sessions or home therapy programs.
