Children who are easily distracted, hyperactive and lacking in concentration respond positively to the additional weight or pressure a vest provides. Want to know about the benefits of using a weighted vest,

Many therapists have found a weighted vest, deep pressure vest, or weighted lap pad may also 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 working with children are recommending the use of a weighted or deep pressure product.
