Lifeskills 4 Kids

Clients with proprioceptive and tactile integration dysfunction will benefit from the sensory feedback they receive when wearing our Bear Hug. The deep pressure vest can be used to develop proprioceptive integration and for calming activities to help the oversensitive child decrease hyper-responsiveness. The Bear Hug fits snugly next to the body and does not shift as the child moves which makes it convenient to be worn under clothing if desired. The adjustable straps and body wrap allow the therapist to adjust the amount of pressure as desired. Each vest is made out of comfortable neoprene with loop-compatible outer skin. The body wrap and straps utilize strong hook and loop closures. The Bear Hug consists of one adjustable body wrap and two adjustable shoulder straps and comes in four sizes. Cold water washable.
