Soft-lite Barrel
The Soft-lite Barrel from Southpaw is an essential addition to any sensory room, providing a versatile tool for enhancing spatial awareness and vestibular input. This robust piece of equipment allows clients to crawl through, promoting spatial orientation. When movement is introduced, it offers substantial vestibular input crucial for sensory integration therapy. Additionally, it serves as an excellent source of heavy work when one client pushes the barrel while another is inside, providing proprioceptive feedback.
Crafted with sturdy foam, the Soft-lite Barrel supports a range of therapeutic activities. Therapists can work with clients on top of the barrel to improve balance and positioning, enhancing motor skills and core strength. The durable construction ensures it withstands intensive use, making it a reliable choice for both individual and group therapy sessions.
