A weighted vest provides deep pressure to the user's muscles and joints. Weighted therapy is recommended for disorders such as:
- Autism and Asperger’s
- Sensory Integration
- ADHD
- Cerebral Palsy
- Poor motor skills and coordination
- Hyperactivity
- Difficulties in falling asleep at night

Weighted vests are useful in OT therapy and for everyday use. They are helpful for hyperactive children who struggle to concentrate in the classroom, during therapy, or find shopping experiences or hospital appointments difficult to handle. The vest can be worn when the user/parent sees a need, such as hyperactivity or difficulties in information processing, and can be taken off when overstimulation is under control.

Some of the measurements are optional, but please note that we do not accept returns if the optional information is not provided and the vest does not fit the user due to a lack of measurements.

WEIGHTED VEST: PERFECT FOR OCCUPATIONAL THERAPISTS

This vest is designed for versatile use, enabling quick and easy adjustments between different participants. It features large, roomy outer pockets that can accommodate a heavier load and is fitted with robust clip fasteners. The weight modules are filled with natural gravel, and the vest is available in red, pink, blue, navy blue, and black.

The OT Vest proves particularly useful when there are multiple users or when a single user requires additional weight inserts during meltdowns or therapy sessions. The outer pockets facilitate easy and swift adjustment of the weight inserts, and the vest can remain on while these adjustments are made.

Front clip fasteners ensure the vest remains securely in place whilst also allowing for quick changes, making it ideal for group settings in classrooms or therapy sessions. Unlike standard vests, which typically recommend a maximum load of only 5% of the user’s body weight, this vest can accommodate more weight. Users can express their comfort levels both verbally and non-verbally, indicating a willingness to wear the vest for extended periods. Research indicates that children with sensory integration disorders may feel more at ease with a heavier vest than is usually advised. The vest can be worn in intervals and for durations determined by the user’s needs; observation is key in assessing comfort levels.

A weighted vest applies deep pressure to the muscles and joints of the user. Weighted therapy is beneficial for individuals with conditions such as autism, Asperger’s syndrome, sensory integration difficulties, ADHD, cerebral palsy, poor motor skills and coordination, hyperactivity, and challenges in falling asleep.

We take pride in ensuring a natural look and feel for our products, which is why both the outer and inner sides of the vest are made from 100% cotton.

WASHING INSTRUCTIONS:

Remove inserts before washing. Wash at 30 degrees.
