therapy swing
Calming suspended seat
A therapy swing is a suspended seat or platform used in occupational therapy and sensory integration treatment, typically for children with autism, sensory processing disorders, or developmental delays.
The swinging motion provides vestibular input that can help regulate the nervous system, improve balance, and calm or stimulate as needed.
Therapy swings come in various forms—cocoons, platforms, bolsters—and are found in therapy clinics, schools, and homes: The occupational therapist recommended a therapy swing for his sensory room.
