Frequently Asked Questions
What do TheraTogs do, exactly?
A properly fitted TheraTogs™ system gives the wearer a comfortable, breathable, Latex-free “second skin” on his/her torso and selected limb segments, providing vertical stiffness to reinforce the wearer’s stability, and horizontal stretch for mild compression and a comfortable fit. TheraTogs are designed to be worn as undergarments, with garment components worn next to the skin.
- FOR WEARERS WITH NEUROMOTOR, BALANCE, AND POSTURE ISSUES, TheraTogs garments serve as a Velcro®-sensitive field for attaching elastic strapping that assists underlying muscles - in virtually any configuration - to provide LIVE-IN postural improvement, better balance, or more precise movements.
- FOR WEARERS WITH SENSORY PROCESSING ISSUES, TheraTogs garments provide a “wearable hug” of gentle compression across the upper and lower trunk – giving significant and consistent proprioceptive and deep pressure input that calms behaviors, improves focus, and enables increased function.
One of the key benefits of TheraTogs is carry-over between therapy sessions. The clinical practitioner can send his or her clients home from a successful therapy session with a TheraTogs system that continues to deliver gains made in postural alignment, muscle function, or sensory processing. A TheraTogs strapping system can replicate almost any successful, gentle, manual correction that the clinician can attain in a wearer’s posture, balance, or limb motion.
