What are the benefits of TheraTogs?
TheraTogs provide many benefits including but not limited to the following:

1. The suit allows for thousands of movement repetitions in a corrected functional alignment position.
2. Gentle and prolonged muscle stretch in an aligned position to mimic the hands of the therapist all day long.
3. Optimum bone alignment which promotes more normalized bone and joint development.
4. Increases body awareness and support for more controlled extremity movements during gait and while performing activities of daily living.
5. Supports improved posture and balance during standing and walking.

In general, TheraTogs help children to address delayed milestones by supporting postural control, by stabilizing the trunk and hips, and by assisting the somatosensory / proprioceptive systems.  TheraTogs assist the body by promoting development of the trunk core, facilitating improved posture and by strengthening all musculature.  As the patient performs both daily activities and coordinated exercises, more normalized movement patterns are ingrained to become a permanent skill set in the neuromotor control cortex.

TheraTogs Features:
TheraTogs are made from a breathable patented material that has an inner foam layer which contacts the skin and an outer Velcro® - sensitive layer where various elastic straps are applied initially by a physical or occupational therapist.  This outer Velcro® layer can handle repeated application and removal of the tabs.  The TheraTog suit is comfortable enough to be worn under clothing and the specific cuts of the suit allows it to remain on the patient during toileting as well.  The 'Togs are fully customizable with the assistance of a clinician and it's design is simple enough to train an adult to don the suit independently.  Children will of course require assistance for daily application, fit and wear of the 'Togs. The straps come in a large variety of lengths, widths, and levels of stiffness.  TheraTogs are a one of the most useful resources that therapists have to assist them in their practice as they can be uses to address a diverse range of neuromotor, postural, and sensory issues.  TheraTogs are lightweight and washable.  Wearing TheraTogs is like bringing your therapist home with you, to school with your child, and into everyday life wherever that may be.  In the past TheraTogs were manufactured with bright blue fabric color.  The new GoldTone™ is a more subtle golden tan color.  The new GoldTone color allows the 'Togs blend a bit more and they are cooler, too!  

Conclusion:
The TheraTogs wearable therapy system is a wonderful asset to any rehabilitation program. They assist people in improving functional alignment and in advancing neuromotor learning control. TheraTogs are considered a Class I medical device and are intended to be issued by and applied under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner. All TheraTog applications should be prescribed by a physician or therapist, sized and customized to fit an individual patient, and used directly under a therapist’s instruction to prevent misuse or injury to the wearer.
