The effects of a program controlled vestibular stimulation on the gross motor, fine motor, and reflex development of 38 severely and profoundly retarded, nonambulatory, developmentally delayed children were investigated employing a pretest/posttest control group design. Data analysis revealed that subjects receiving a combined program of sensorimotor therapy and controlled vestibular stimulation made significantly greater gains on measures of reflex integration, gross motor, and fine motor development than control subjects receiving a program of sensorimotor therapy alone. Neuromotor improvements followed the progression of normal motor development and appeared to be related to the age of subjects and to the presence or absence of identifiable neuromotor spasticity.
