This Tangle provides a multi-sensory experience, offering tactile, proprioceptive, and potentially visual input. The interconnected, rotating segments allow for continuous manipulation, promoting fine motor skills, dexterity, and hand-eye coordination. The tactile feedback from the smooth, textured surfaces and the proprioceptive input from the twisting and turning motions can be calming and regulating, potentially serving as a self-soothing activity for individuals experiencing anxiety or sensory overload. The repetitive manipulation can also serve as a focus tool, potentially improving attention and concentration. Its portability makes it a discreet and accessible tool for self-regulation strategies in various environments, from classrooms and boardrooms to therapy sessions and home settings. The Tangle can be incorporated into therapeutic activities to address sensory processing needs, improve fine motor control, and support hand and wrist rehabilitation. The engaging nature of the Tangle can also be used to encourage participation in therapeutic activities and promote the development of healthy habits, such as reducing screen time or redirecting fidgeting behaviors.
