HOW TO USE YOUR WEIGHTED COMPRESSION VEST:
HOW TO USE YOUR WEIGHTED COMPRESSION VEST:
- Insert the 1/4 lb. and 1/2 lb. weights into the pockets of the vest. Add a minimum amount of weight to start to achieve the desired amount of weight your child needs to feel most comfortable. Gradually increase as needed...Less is more!
- Start with less weight and slowly increase as needed. Research shows that 4-5% of the child's body weight is the best amount for a child with sensory differences. For example, a child weighing 50 lbs., should use a weighted vest that's 2-2.5 lbs.
- Use caution when adding weight if your child has lower muscle tone. Start with just the compression vest without any weights.
- Here's a guide to follow when adding weight to your Weighted Compression Vest
Small: No more than 3 lbs.
Large: No more than 5 lbs.
