Awareness. Body Socks are an effective way for children and adults to work on a variety of skills while in occupational therapy, at home or school.

input (balance and movement in space) while moving.


Body Socks are suitable for home, specialist clinics or school based wellness
programs and are light weight making them ideal to take on family holidays. Our
products have been recommended by Allied Professionals
