Our calming bed socks (#notjustforfeet - they are a special type of bedsheet) provide sensory feedback perfect for any child or adult as they provide input that floods the brain with the simple message "I am safe". These are great, especially if you need compression without the extra weight of blankets.
The perfectly soft, perfectly firm, perfectly calming, sensory bed sheet to help individuals with autism, ADHD, and sensory processing differences, separation anxiety, anxiety, insomnia and other sleep challenges. They provide deep pressure input that helps to calm an over stimulated nervous system and set our little super heroes up for a long rejuvenating sleep.
Our especially designed bed socks are made from a breathable super soft fabric and the only ones (that we know of 🙂) to have an extra wide, extra soft elastic across the top end of the sock to ensure the pressure is perfectly even and doesn't cut in to our little super heroes arms or upper body. They are open at either end and simply slip over the mattress for easy installation. We recommend that they are installed and first used with adult instruction and supervision to ensure the user has full mobility. We do not recommend for children under 3 years of age.
A great way to get into bed is to start at the bottom of the bed then army crawl underneath the sock to the top, and as they move around the bed the fabric provides gentle pressure against the skin and joints. Even just wiggling toes or jiggling legs against the pressure of the blanket is recommended by the Occupational Therapists that we work with in order to kick start the sleep routine with some lovely sensory input for our super sensory brains.
