This therapeutic tool is expertly designed to provide a steady, calming weight that helps soothe the nervous system, reduce restlessness, and improve focus during seated activities. Its friendly design encourages use, making it a favourite sensory support for home, school, or therapy settings.

Key Benefits & Features:

  • Provides Calming Deep Pressure: The distributed 900g weight delivers consistent proprioceptive input, which can help increase serotonin and melatonin levels while decreasing cortisol, promoting a sense of calm and security.

  • Engaging & Friendly Design: The approachable dinosaur shape and soft cotton fabric make this a welcoming sensory tool that individuals will want to use.

  • Improves Focus & Self-Regulation: Ideal for use during class time, homework, or quiet time, the gentle pressure helps to ground and organise sensory information, allowing for better concentration.

  • Portable Sensory Support: Measuring 48cm x 53cm, it's the perfect size to provide targeted pressure on the lap without being cumbersome, making it easy to transport and use wherever needed.

How Deep Pressure Helps Support Regulation

Similar to a firm, gentle hug, Deep Touch Pressure (DTP) provides information to the body's receptors. This sensory input can help individuals to:

  • Feel more grounded and aware of their body in space.

  • Filter out distracting sensory information, leading to improved focus.

  • Calm feelings of anxiety or being overwhelmed by providing a constant, reassuring sensation.

  • Support the self-regulation needs of individuals with Autism, ADHD, or Sensory Processing Disorder.

How This Item Supports NDIS Goals

Improving Emotional Regulation: The 900g of deep pressure provides calming proprioceptive input, which can help to soothe an overstimulated nervous system. This supports the goal of managing emotions, reducing anxiety, and preventing sensory overload in various environments.

Enhancing Focus & Task Completion: For participants who find it difficult to stay seated or concentrate, the grounding effect of the lap pad can increase their ability to focus on tasks like schoolwork, therapy sessions, or meal times. This directly supports goals related to education and skill development.
