The TheraSuit is a breathable soft dynamic orthotic device that consists of a vest, shorts, knee pads, and specifically adapted shoes. It uses small resistance bands/bungee that attach to each piece of the garments, providing deep proprioceptive input to the body whilst re-establishing correct postural alignment for various activities.

 

The suit works to align the body to as close to normal as possible and use the UEU to move the body against resistance.  This can be with or without gravity being eliminated to assist in building strength in muscle groups that are very weak.

​

The pulley system allows for an individual to perform independent or assisted movement while gravitational forces are eliminated. It allows for the isolation of specific muscles to increase strength and range of motion, facilitate active movement, increase muscle and joint flexibility as well as improve functional skills. The spider system allows an individual to perform movement while the body is supported through the dynamic system of elastic cords.
