SPIO has proven beneficial for children with spastic diplegia who demonstrate deficits in sensory awareness and stability.
Use:
½ Assists with primary sensory awareness deficits in lower extremity and lower trunk
½ Combine with vest to improve upright stability
½ Combine with shirt to improve full body sensory awareness
½ May benefit children and adults with spastic diplegia who demonstrate deficits in sensory awareness and stability
Features:
½ SPIO pants are standard single layer
½ Combined with shirt or vest will provide double or triple layer compression from the lower ribcage to the pelvis and hips
½ Designed with a higher back side to accommodate diapers
½ Can be trimmed below or above knee
SPIO½ is made of a patented Lycra-like blend of fabric. It has a unique multi-directional stretch which provides an enhanced rebound and "spring back" effect. SPIO½ does not contain Latex components. Other features of SPIO½ are:
Easy to use. SPIO½ is easy to put on and adjustments are quick and minimal.
Affordable. Parents find it helpful to have two sets of systems for laundering. Because insurance will not typically cover two sets, we adjusted our prices to make them out-of-pocket friendly.
Can be worn under clothes. SPIO½ is not bulky and can be worn discretely under clothing or fashionably by itself.
Comfortable. The lightweight and breathable fabric blend feels soft and cool against the skin while providing an intimate fit that moves with the child.
No break-in period. From the moment you receive your SPIO½, your child can begin wearing it all day. They may not want to take it off!
Allows for growth. SPIO½ systems allow a 25% growth. If properly taken care of your SPIO will last for years.
**NOTE**
The use of any compression-type orthotic system such as SPIO½ should be discussed with your clinician prior to using.
At this time we only offer standard systems in the color black.
