Frequently Bought Together
Provide discreet, on-the-go sensory regulation with the Wearable Tactile Sensory Bands. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this 6-piece set of textured silicone bracelets is specifically designed to support NDIS participants living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, anxiety, or Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) who require immediate, accessible tactile input to manage their environment.
For many participants, the inability to regulate an overwhelmed nervous system can lead to anxiety, loss of focus, or the development of harmful repetitive habits, such as skin-picking or nail-biting. Standard sensory tools are often dropped, lost, or difficult to access in a moment of crisis. This wearable solution eliminates that barrier. By securing safely around the wrist, these bands offer a constant, silent focal point. Participants can rub, roll, or trace the varied textures to ground themselves, redirect anxious energy, and maintain concentration during school, therapy, or community outings without drawing unwanted attention.
How This Device Supports NDIS Participants
-
Sensory Regulation (Tactile Input): Provides immediate, varied textures to touch and trace, helping to soothe an overstimulated nervous system and manage anxiety in real-time.
-
Redirecting Repetitive Behaviours: Offers a safe, durable surface to pick or scratch, effectively redirecting harmful habits like skin-picking (dermatillomania) or nail-biting common in anxiety and ASD.
-
Cognitive Focus & Executive Function: Acts as a silent, non-disruptive physical outlet that allows for subconscious movement, helping participants maintain attention in classrooms, waiting rooms, or workplaces.
-
Promoting Independence: The wearable design ensures the participant always has their regulation tool attached to their person, eliminating the executive function burden of remembering to carry a separate item.
