Deep Pressure Therapy Abilitations Weighted 8 Pound Vest, Gray, X-Large comfortable pressure sensory products can help children relax and improve focus.
This durable polyester vest features multiple pockets to store removable weights, providing therapeutic pressure to ease anxiety, stress, tantrums, and more.
Abilitations strives to enhance the lives of individuals with special sensory needs. Provide a complete line of resources and tools to inspire, empower, and promote independence.
Very often, children with ASD, SPD, ADHD, and other neurological challenges respond well to either weight or pressure.
The weight gives the body additional input to the muscles and joints, providing the proprioceptive system with more information.
Hook and loop closures at the shoulders and sides allow easy placement and adjustment. Side closures around the back to prevent unwanted adjustment or removal.
Extra fabric at the side closure overlaps to allow room for growth, and the bottom portion of the vest folds up to shorten it for individuals with shorter midsections.
A standard weight recommended for use is 5% of a client's weight; please consult with the child's therapist to adhere to the individual's needs. Measure around the chest for width and from shoulder to waist for length.
