The Movement Tube by BodySocks® is a versatile movement and regulation tool designed to provide opportunities for proprioceptive input, resistance-based movement, body awareness and active participation throughout the day.

Approximately 150cm long and 51cm wide, the Movement Tube is designed to accommodate the body while allowing movement of the arms and legs. Its stretchy, breathable construction provides resistance as the user pushes, pulls, stretches and moves within the tube.

The Movement Tube by BodySocks® can be incorporated into movement breaks, therapy activities, obstacle courses, classroom routines, home programs and designated regulation areas. It can also be used as an enclosed space for quiet activities such as reading, where appropriate.

With an opening at each end, the tube provides flexibility for movement in and out. It is also wide enough to accommodate a hula hoop, fitness ball and other compatible movement or therapy equipment, creating additional opportunities for structured activities.

The combination of stretch, resistance and enclosed body coverage can provide meaningful proprioceptive and tactile input for individuals who benefit from movement-based strategies. Activities can be adapted according to the individual's abilities, preferences and functional goals.

Made from 80% Nylon / 20% LYCRA®, the Movement Tube is breathable and see-through, allowing users and supervising adults to maintain visual awareness during use.

The Movement Tube by BodySocks® is suitable for schools, occupational therapy and allied health settings, home environments, workplaces and other spaces where movement and self-regulation strategies form part of everyday participation.

Australian Made and Australian Owned.

Why Choose This Product

The Movement Tube by BodySocks® offers a flexible way to incorporate movement and proprioceptive activities into everyday environments without requiring large or permanent equipment.

Its 150cm length provides coverage around the body while the stretchy 80% Nylon and 20% LYCRA® construction allows users to move their arms and legs against gentle resistance. This creates opportunities for purposeful movement, body awareness and coordination.

Unlike equipment designed for a single activity, the Movement Tube can be incorporated into a variety of programs. It can be used for crawling and resistance activities, movement circuits, transitions, quiet activities and compatible equipment-based exercises.

For occupational therapists and allied health professionals, it provides a portable resource that can be incorporated into individualised movement and participation programs. For educators, it can provide an accessible movement option within classrooms and early learning environments.

The see-through fabric also allows supervising adults to maintain visual awareness while the user is inside the tube.

Australian Made and Australian Owned, the Movement Tube by BodySocks® is a versatile addition to schools, therapy practices, homes and other environments where movement and participation are important.

For NDIS-funded purchases, consider whether the product relates directly to the participant's approved goals and functional support requirements and meets current NDIS funding criteria.
