Frequently Bought Together
Stabilize movements and sharpen focus with these Sensory Weighted Bracelets . This set of two adjustable wristbands is a specialized piece of low-cost assistive technology designed to support NDIS participants (children) with fine motor delays, tremors, or sensory seeking behaviours (SPD/Autism/ADHD).
Unlike standard gym weights which are bulky and stiff, these bracelets are made from soft, comfortable fabric filled with fine glass beads. Each band weighs 115g , providing gentle proprioceptive input (deep pressure) to the wrists. This additional weight helps "ground" the hand, reducing shakes and improving awareness of hand position, which is critical for tasks like handwriting, feeding, and dressing.
How This Device Supports NDIS Participants
Stabilizing Fine Motor Skills: For children with tremors, ataxia, or poor motor control, the added weight dampens involuntary movements. This stabilization can significantly improve handwriting legibility and the ability to manipulate small objects (e.g., buttons, cutlery).
Sensory Regulation (Proprioception): The deep pressure input helps regulate the sensory system. It provides "heavy work" for the muscles without movement, which is calming for children who are fidgety, anxious, or have difficulty sitting still in class.
Improving Body Awareness: By increasing feedback from the muscles and joints, these bracelets help the child know exactly where their hands are in space, improving coordination and reducing clumsiness.
Discreet & Comfortable: The slim design allows them to be worn under long sleeves or clearly as a "sporty" accessory, avoiding the stigma often associated with medical aids.
Key Features & Benefits
Targeted Weight (115g each): Specifically calibrated to provide sensory input without causing fatigue or strain during daily activities.
Adjustable Fit: Features a secure hook-and-loop fastener to fit a wide range of wrist sizes, growing with the child.
Soft Tactile Fabric: Comfortable against the skin for all-day wear, reducing sensory irritation for sensitive users.
Supports Handwriting: Worn during writing tasks, they help anchor the hand to the page/desk, promoting smoother letter formation.
Set of Two: Can be worn on both wrists for balanced input, or used on ankles for lower limb awareness during movement therapy.
