Snug Vest™ is an inflatable vest for providing Deep Pressure Therapy. Firm pressure to the torso helps to relieve anxiety as well as increase focus and attention, and is especially effective for individuals with high levels of anxiety, stress, or with sensory disorders.
Pressure is evenly distributed in Snug Vest™ throughout the sides, shoulders, and back of the torso to give a hug-like squeeze. Snug Vest™ inflates easily with an attachable hand pump, and safe adjustable pressure can be administered to the exact amount the user needs.
• Gives the user independence to self-administer pressure
• Easy to adjust pressure in small increments
• Easy to put-on and remove but not necessary to remove
• Does not place pressure on the stomach or chest
• Fashionable and discreet promoting dignity
• Can be worn almost anywhere, any time
• Gives evenly-distributed pressure to the torso
• Is adjustable to grow with child or fit multiple users
• Is easy to wash
• Avoids habituation with the ability to vary the pressure. (Habituation is when the body gets used to repeated exposure of a stimulus such as pressure).
Snug Vest is hooded for blocking out light and overwhelming distractions to aid in calming, and pockets provide a further sense of comfort. The stylish vest is discrete and promotes inclusion. Adjusting in the length and width, Snug Vest™ can grow with the user or be worn in a therapy setting for various sized users. Snug Vest™ uses patent pending cutting-edge welding technology construction methods and safety mechanisms to provide evenly-distributed and safe pressure to the body.
Use the vest only under caretaker’s supervision.
Directly after inflating the vest, to ensure the vest is not too tight, your hand should still be able to slip between the vest and user’s back very snugly.
It is recommended by therapists to keep vest inflated for up to 20 mins, and deflated for at least 30 mins in-between use.
Keep inflatable off the stomach and chest region by not wearing the vest backwards, or adjusting the horizontal adjustment past the red line (watch video for more information).
Do not inflate vest by blowing into the tubes.
