Hey there! Welcome to Accessibility Minute, your weekly look at Assistive Technology, those clever tools and devices designed to help people who have difficulties with vision, mobility, hearing or other special needs!
 
There are so many pressure and weighted vests available on the market that it may be hard to find one that's right for you or your child.  The Squease pressure vest from AbleNet Inc. is a lightweight, air-filled option designed to apply therapeutic pressure to the person wearing the vest.  It is ideal for individuals who have difficulties processing sensory information such as those with autism, ADHD, anxiety or sleeping disorders.
 
Features of the Squease Pressure Vest include:
  • Therapeutic benefits from the hug-like pressure
  • Adjustable sizes provide comfortable and controlled pressure
  • Lightweight and discreet profile so it can be worn almost anywhere at anytime
  • Can be easily inflated by the wearer, or by a parent, therapist, or teacher
  • Easy-to-clean
  • 2-year warranty
 
Please note, if you are new to deep pressure therapy, consult an occupational therapist or medical professional familiar with deep pressure and Sensory Integration prior to use.
