BRAIN GYM 170 | Why Do We Pay Special Attention to the Feet?

The feet play a much more important role in motor development than we might initially realize.

For children who experience difficulties with postural control and movement, it is important to consider not only muscle activity but also the quality of sensory information the body receives.

This is where Brain Gym 170 becomes a valuable part of BDA Therapy.

Through targeted manual techniques and foot stimulation, we provide a variety of sensory experiences that we incorporate into therapeutic work focused on body awareness, weight-bearing, and postural control.

Our approach is not limited to the specific body part being treated. We consider how different parts of the body work together and how their responses can be integrated into an individualized therapy program.

Brain Gym 170 is therefore another component of the BDA approach, allowing us to expand the possibilities of individualized therapeutic care.

TheraTogs — individually tailored support for posture, stability, and movement control.

TheraTogs is a dynamic orthotic garment with a system of adjustable straps. It is used alongside therapy for children who need additional support to maintain their posture and control their movements.

The material provides gentle pressure and additional sensory feedback about body position. Strap placement and tension are adjusted to address each child’s specific needs.

Depending on how it is fitted, TheraTogs may contribute to:

🔴 improved alignment of the trunk, pelvis, and limbs
🔴 greater trunk and joint stability
🔴 better awareness of body position in space — proprioception
🔴 improved balance, weight-bearing, and weight distribution
🔴 greater ease in maintaining positions and performing controlled movements.

Within the BDA approach, this support is linked to specific functional goals helping a child maintain a position, shift their weight, reach, or move between positions more easily.

Following an individual wearing schedule, TheraTogs can also be used between therapy sessions during everyday activities. This gives the child more time to be active with appropriate postural support.

Garment selection, strap placement, and wearing time are determined following a professional assessment. The potential benefits vary according to each child’s needs and abilities.

📩 For an assessment and guidance on choosing and ordering a TheraTogs garment, send us “THERATOGS” in a direct message.

What if the next step in your child’s development could begin right at home?

Distance should never be a barrier to accessing professional therapeutic guidance.

The BDA Online Course is more than just online lessons. It is a personalized training program designed around your child’s abilities, needs, and developmental challenges.

Through individual assessment, a tailored exercise program, and step-by-step guidance from our BDA therapists, parents learn how to actively support their child’s development at home.

Because meaningful progress starts with understanding your child’s individual needs — and knowing how to support them.

🌍 BDA Online Course — professional guidance, wherever you are.

📩 Send us a DM with “ONLINE BDA” to learn more and register.

The difficulty we see in one movement does not always begin there.

A challenge with sitting, standing or walking may be connected to the way the whole body manages support, stability and weight transfer.

That is why the BDA approach looks beyond a single movement.

The BDA Course is coming to Japan:

📍 Tokyo
📍 Kobe

Each child will receive a detailed individual assessment. We will look at how the child’s body works today, identify the main functional challenges and recognise the abilities that can be supported and developed further.

Based on the assessment, parents will receive an individually tailored BDA exercise program and practical guidance on how to perform each exercise correctly. You will learn not only how to do the exercises, but also why each one has been selected for your child.

Registration is now open, and places in both cities are limited.

📩 Send us a DM with your preferred city, your child’s age and a short description of their main difficulties. We will send you all the information about the course and registration.

Toe walking is more than just the way a child places their foot.

When this movement pattern persists over time, load is distributed differently through the foot and ankle, and the rest of the body begins to adapt. Over time, this can affect ankle mobility, the position of the knees and pelvis, balance, and the way the child transfers weight during walking.

The longer the pattern continues, the more the body begins to use it as its habitual way of moving. This is why it is important to address it early and understand why the child is not using full foot contact during walking.

In BDA therapy, the goal is not simply to force the heel down onto the floor. Through assessment, we look for the factors that are maintaining the toe-walking pattern and then direct therapy toward creating better conditions for support, weight transfer, and a more functional foot response during each step.

Because when we work to change a walking pattern, the goal is not only for the change to be visible, it needs to be functional.

What we see on the outside is often only a reflection of what is happening throughout the body.

In BDA Therapy, we don’t focus only on correcting the position we see. We look at how the body responds to load, where stability is limited, and how different parts of the body influence one another.

When we change the conditions in which the body functions, we may see a completely different response.

That is what this video demonstrates. The goal is not simply to place the child in a “better” position, but to provide precise stimulation and observe how the child’s body responds and adapts.

BDA Therapy — we don’t just look at the movement. We look for what is behind it.

A diagnosis gives a name to the condition. An assessment tells us much more.

How does your child use their body?
Where are the main challenges right now?
Which abilities have the potential to develop further?

This is exactly what we focus on during the BDA Course in South Africa, coming to two cities:

📍 Cape Town and Pretoria

During a detailed professional assessment, we look at your child’s current functional abilities and how their body responds and works as a whole. Based on this assessment, parents receive an individually tailored BDA exercise program together with clear guidance for continued work.

Registration is now open, and places in each city are limited.

📩 Send us a DM with the city you are interested in, and we will send you all the information about dates and registration.

A diagnosis gives a condition a name. An assessment shows us much more.

How does a child use their body?
Where are the greatest challenges?
Which abilities can be supported further?

This is the focus of the BDA Course.

This October, BDA courses are coming to Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore.

As part of the BDA Course, each child receives an individual assessment. Based on this assessment, a personalised BDA exercise programme is created, and parents receive practical training on how to perform the exercises correctly at home.

Individual in-person consultations will also be available for parents who would like their child to be assessed by the BDA team.

Registration is now open, and places in each city are limited.

📩 Send us your preferred city by DM for dates, consultation availability and registration details.

BDA Active — BDA Therapy in Active Movement

BDA Active is an advanced form of individual therapy in which BDA principles are applied while the child is engaged in self-initiated movement — whether sitting, crawling, walking, changing positions, or performing another activity within their current abilities.

The therapist follows the child’s responses moment by moment, using their hands to guide subtle micromovements where a different bodily response is being encouraged.

The focus is not on performance itself, but on how the child engages their body during movement and how, through repetition, they can begin to connect their own movement experience with a new response.

This type of work requires a high level of experience, as a child’s responses can change within seconds. For this reason, BDA Active is currently provided by Slobodan Vujašić, Saša Jovanović, and Danijel Grujić.

BDA Active is recommended in two- to three-week blocks, with each session lasting approximately 50 minutes, depending on the child’s response.

Due to the specific nature of the program and therapist availability, the number of BDA Active blocks and appointments will be limited.

For more information about BDA Active and available appointments, send us a message.
