Weighted Children's Jacket
Weighted Children's Jacket
Sometimes customers have the best ideas! Based on my very popular weighted fleece vests, I can now offer weighted fleece jackets. The jackets have all the same benefits for children with autism, sensory disorders, anxiety or ADHD, and a little more warmth.
The jackets have sewn in weighted linings. The jacket is washable - on gentle and hang to dry.
Weighted garments are designed to calm children and adults with anxiety, autism, ADD, Sensory processing or sensory integration disorder and ADHD. Weight is often used to assist with to self-calming and relaxing so that sensory stimulus can be processed. The use of a weighted vest provides unconscious information from the muscles and joints.
Adults and children who are easily distracted, hyperactive, anxious, or lacking in concentration respond positively to the additional weight or pressure a vest provides.
Some therapists have also found that a weighted garment may assist with reflex maturity, body position awareness and coordination, balance, eye/hand coordination, spatial perception and hearing and speaking skills. Because of these anecdotal outcomes, many therapists are recommending the use of a weighted garment.
