Spio Suit
A few months back Brinley’s physical therapist at Primary Children’s Hospital mentioned that she should try a compression vest to help with some of her sensory issues. It took a while to figure out what would be best for her but her early intervention p.t. hooked us up with a Spio suit for her. You can read a little about it but basically it adds compression and helps to stabilize her body. The hope for Brinley is that it will give her some stability in her body so that she can have more success in her physical therapy…such as getting that big noggin’ up. We’re also hoping it will have a calming effect on her. But no matter what she looks so dang cute in it!
