Vestibular AbilityScore 600–700: Your Next Steps

A vestibular score in the 600–700 band tells us your child's balance-and-movement system is finding its feet — and a clear, gentle plan can build the rest.

In short

A Vestibular AbilityScore in the 600–700 band is a structured snapshot of how your child's balance, movement and spatial-awareness system is developing right now — it is a starting point, not a label. The next step is a clinician review at a Pinnacle Blooms Network centre to confirm the profile and shape a play-based plan, usually led by occupational therapy. Many children in this band make steady, joyful progress once movement is practised the way their body learns best.

What this band means and your next steps

The vestibular system — based in the inner ear — helps your child sense movement, hold balance, coordinate the two sides of the body and feel steady in space. A score in this band suggests there is real ground to build on, with targeted support likely to help.

Practical next steps:

• Confirm the profile with a clinician — the AbilityScore band guides, but a qualified clinician interprets it alongside how your child plays, moves and copes day to day.
• Begin sensory-integration and occupational therapy — the core support, using swinging, spinning, balancing, climbing and rolling games that gently train the balance system.
• Carry it into everyday play — playground time, balance beams, rocking and movement games turn therapy into something your child wants to repeat.
• Parent coaching — you'll be shown simple home routines so the practice continues between sessions, where most progress is made.

When to add a wider check

If you also notice frequent dizziness, unusual head tilting, motion sickness, hearing concerns or marked unsteadiness, mention these — a clinician can decide whether a paediatric or ENT review should sit alongside therapy. The aim is never to rush your child, but to give their balance system the repeated, enjoyable practice that turns wobble into confidence.

The Pinnacle way

A clinical AbilityScore® and any diagnosis are formed only at a Pinnacle Blooms Network centre, under qualified clinician care — never from an app, a number alone or an online form. From there your child receives a precise movement and sensory profile and a plan built around their strengths through our occupational therapy programme.
