Suit therapy is an effective therapy tool used regularly at our clinics. Suit therapy assists with correcting abnormal muscle tone, decreases fluctuating tone, such as dyskinetic movement patterns, improves body alignment and posture, and sensory conditions such as ASD and ADHD.
Our therapists have the knowledge to recommend which suit therapy your child may benefit from, and can help you with the next steps of ordering your own suit, if you wish to do so.
Suit Therapy ranges in complexity from off the shelf singlets to strategically tailored garments. Common suit therapy garments used at Therapies for Kids include Theratogs, Second Skin, Dynamic Movement Orthosis (DMO), Spiral Skin Suiting and Jettproof singlets and SPIO suits.
