Assistive Tech: As Easy as 1, 2, 3!

Create a supportive environment for focus and learning with NATPAT Focus Patches. Designed as a drug-free, sensory-based tool, these essential-oil-infused stickers are a powerful piece of low cost assistive technology. They provide a gentle, non-invasive way to help users manage distractions and sustain concentration during school, homework, or any task requiring attention.
For many NDIS participants, particularly individuals with ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), or challenges with Executive Function, maintaining focus can be a significant hurdle to learning and daily life. Common challenges include:
Sensory Modulation: Difficulty filtering out external distractions or a need for consistent sensory input to feel grounded.
Task Initiation & Sustained Attention: Trouble starting tasks and staying engaged for necessary periods.
Cognitive Load: Feeling overwhelmed by complex instructions or environments, which can hinder concentration.
The Focus Patch acts as a sensory anchor. The specially crafted aromatherapy provides a gentle and consistent olfactory input. This helps to regulate the nervous system, reduce sensory-seeking or avoidant behaviors, and quieten the "noise" of a distracting environment, making it easier for the user to direct their cognitive resources to the task at hand.
Safe, Drug-Free & Non-Invasive: Created with a chemical-free approach to support focus. The patches are infused with all-natural essential oils, offering a safe alternative to supplements or medication without unwanted side effects.
Gentle Aromatherapy for Focus: Utilizes a scientifically formulated blend of essential oils that work by triggering receptors in the nose, which then sends messages to the part of the brain responsible for emotions and behavior, promoting a state of calm alertness.
Discreet & Easy to Use: The friendly smiley-face design makes this a positive and approachable tool for all ages. Simply apply the patch to an outer layer of clothing for a discreet sensory support that goes anywhere.
Long-Lasting Effectiveness: A single patch starts working within 30 minutes and is formulated to provide consistent aromatic support for approximately 8 hours, offering coverage for a full school or work day.
Versatile for Any Task: Perfect for supporting focus during school hours, homework sessions, therapy appointments, office work, or any activity where sustained concentration is a goal.
Peel: Select a patch from the sheet.
Stick: Apply the adhesive side to an outer layer of clothing, such as the collar or shoulder area.
Focus: The patch will gently release its essential oil aroma, providing sensory support for the day.
