Compression garments have been used to improve posture and stability for those with neurological impairments. They are ideal for those with Hypotonia, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, Athetosis, Rett Syndrome, Autism, and Sensory Processing Disorders.

Our Spio range offers clinicians a range of different levels of support which are lighter and more breathable - increasing compliance.
