TOTville (732-860-8100), an occupational therapy center for children in Manalapan, New Jersey, now offers interactive play sessions performed by a licensed occupational therapist.

The gym equipment is designed to provide proprioceptive and vestibular sensory input and includes climbing walls, crash pads, zip lines, rotational swings, ladders, and more.

By expanding its sensory gym sessions, TOTville seeks to provide children with a safe, structured environment to interact with other kids. Children are supervised by licensed occupational therapists and other childcare professionals, who will guide them through activities that promote fine and gross motor development.
The interactive gym sessions may be especially beneficial for children suffering from a sensory integration dysfunction or sensory processing disorder. TOTville’s special equipment and exercises leverage movement to elicit appropriate sensory responses, so a child can behave properly in any physical or social situation.
TOTville offers more than a typical schoolyard jungle gym. The team introduces children to adventurous sports such as rock climbing, trapezing, trampolining, and zip-lining. Rather than a standard swing set, the center offers linear and rotational swings, including a net swing, lycra swing, and platform swing. The equipment is practical for occupational therapy purposes, but is also fun for children to play with.
The sensory gym is available for weekday play sessions and can be booked for private birthday parties on Saturdays and Sundays.
