Professional Double Lycra Therapy Swing

$305.00 
SKU: BOD-0015Charcoal

This Lycra Therapy Swing is an essential tool for children and adults with sensory modulation difficulties, particularly those who seek proprioceptive and vestibular input. This swing helps regulate sensory stimuli by providing calming movement, deep pressure, and sensory feedback. It is especially beneficial for individuals with ADHD, autism, anxiety, or those needing support with sensory integration.

Therapeutic Benefits:

  • Proprioceptive Input: The deep pressure provided by the double layer of Lycra helps to calm the nervous system, offering a secure cocoon-like feeling. This input supports sensory regulation and body awareness.
  • Vestibular Input: The swinging motion stimulates the vestibular system by activating sensors in the inner ear, helping the brain process and regulate movement sensations. This improves spatial awareness, balance, and coordination.
  • Calming and Relaxing: The swing’s motion provides a soothing, therapeutic experience, making it ideal for sensory seekers, promoting emotional regulation and reducing overstimulation.
  • Motor Skills Development: By engaging in movement within the swing, children and adults develop gross motor skills, balance, and coordination in a safe, controlled environment.

Suitable for:

  • Sensory Seekers: Children or adults who crave sensory input, particularly from motion and deep pressure, to help regulate their sensory systems.
  • ADHD and Autism: This swing can help children and adults with ADHD or autism manage overstimulation and focus on tasks by providing calming vestibular input.
  • Anxiety and Stress: The deep pressure and rhythmic motion of the swing provide a calming environment, helping to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation.
  • Movement in Small Spaces: Ideal for individuals who benefit from movement in a confined space, fostering a sense of security and control.

Features:

  • Double Layered Lycra Fabric: The swing's double-layered Lycra design allows individuals to cocoon themselves, providing deep pressure input and enhancing the calming effects.
  • Safe Design: The swing should be suspended from an anchor bolt (not included) securely fastened to a structural beam, with the swing positioned no higher than 40 cm from the ground when weight is applied.
  • Adjustable Length: The fabric length is 3.2m before tying and can stretch slightly with use, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit for different users.
  • Weight Capacity: Supports up to 100kg, making it suitable for both children and adults.

Included in the Set:

  • Nylon straps for secure suspension
  • Carry bag for easy storage and transport
  • Heavy-duty carabiners (x2) for quick setup

Safety Recommendations:

  • Ensure the swing is securely anchored to a structural beam using an appropriate anchor bolt (not included).
  • The swing should be positioned no more than 40 cm from the ground to ensure safety.
  • Adult supervision is required during use, especially for younger children or those unfamiliar with the swing.

Recommended Age: 3+ (with adult supervision)

The Therapy Swing is an invaluable resource for sensory integration therapy, providing essential sensory input to help children and adults manage sensory processing challenges, improve motor skills, and find calm in overstimulating environments.

My previous Review was removed...

I definitely don't recommend this swing. The double layers need to be pulled out and repositioned every time you use it, which means my 9yo can not go to it on his own and use it whe he needs to self regulate. If they aren't lined up perfect (which it is even hard for myself and numerous adults to do) then one layer can slip up causing the child to tilt back and fall. Twice now my son has had this happen and the middle of his back landed on the base of the frame. Unfortunately a waste of $250 of our ndis funding. It is hardly ever been used because it causes my son so much frustration when trying to get it right to sit in. Such a shame because he has used similar swings at the OT and at a friends place and they are amazing for him.

Hi Suzie, I received your review, I am sorry the swing is not what you are looking for. If it is in as new condition you can return it to me and i will refund you. I have altered the information on the selling page to say ADULT SUPERVISION REQUIRED. Although it does say that on the page it is not that clear. 
I did offer you a refund earlier, but you had decided you wished to persevere with it.
I do try hard to make every experience the best it can be.
