Frequently Bought Together
Provide a safe, discreet, and effective outlet for sensory needs with Panny & Mody Sensory Chew Necklace Packs. Classified as low cost assistive technology, these chewable aids are specifically designed to support NDIS participants living with Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), Autism (ASD), ADHD, or severe anxiety.
For many individuals, the need to chew is a powerful mechanism for self-regulation. Unlike chewing on clothing, pens, or fingernails—which can be unhygienic or destructive—these necklaces offer a durable, food-grade silicone alternative. They provide the necessary proprioceptive input to the jaw to help soothe the nervous system, reduce stress, and improve concentration in classroom or community settings.
How This Device Supports NDIS Participants
-
Anxiety & Stress Reduction: Chewing provides heavy work (proprioception) for the jaw muscles, which releases calming chemicals in the brain. This helps de-escalate "meltdowns" and manage anxiety triggers effectively.
-
Safe Sensory Outlet: Replaces unsafe chewing behaviors (such as biting hands, pencils, or shirts) with a purpose-built, non-toxic tool, promoting better hygiene and personal safety.
-
Improved Focus & Attention: By meeting the physical need for sensory stimulation, the user can better filter out distractions and focus on tasks, making it an essential tool for educational and therapy environments.
-
Oral Motor Development: The textured surfaces stimulate the gums and mouth, supporting individuals with low oral tone or those seeking oral sensory feedback.
