SENSORY BLURB! ADAPTIVE SHOES

For an ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) or splint to do its job properly, it needs to be worn with the right shoes. Smashing fashion with function, BILLY Adaptive Footwear incorporates zippers that go along the side of the shoes and around the toe, allowing the upper of each shoe to open and fold over completely. This allows the wearer to place his or her foot onto the shoe footbed unobstructed. Then with a tug on the zipper pull the shoe closes and secures over the top of the user’s foot. It’s simple and easy. These shoes can fit children and adults. For an individual receiving waiver services, we can help you access your waiver funds to cover the cost of adaptive shoes. Feel free to reach out and find out how we can help you!

Weighted blankets are blankets designed to be heavier than standard blankets. You can commonly find them in knitted or duvet options. Duvet-style weighted blankets use beads or other dense fillers to add weight. Knitted weighted blankets use dense yarn to create a heavier weight.

There are many benefits of using a weighted blanket! The overall purpose is to help your body find calmness by using deep pressure stimulation.

Weighted blankets can benefit by:

· Offering comfort and security

Soothing anxiousness and stress
