Weighted jackets can have a calming or settling effect on the body’s proprioceptive system and are commonly recommended by occupational therapists for children with autism, ADHD, sensory and learning difficulties. The ‘pressure’ of the weights is similar to being embraced and provides a child with a form of security in their own space; essential for concentration.
The jacket is made from soft, durable ‘shell fabric’ with cotton lining containing seven weights within inner pockets.
It’s easy to wash and stylish to wear. (Weights can be added or taken away to suit.)
