TheraTogs ULTRA Wunzi System

Description

For those crucial newborn growth months, TheraTogs ULTRA Wunzi System provides a customized body hug that improves trunk alignment and stabilizes the core. It’s intended to aid very young clients by enhancing sensory input while also strengthening core stability. The Wunzi, like all TheraTogs systems, can help with therapy goals both during and between sessions, providing important carry-over. It’s a soft, foam-lined garment with a Velcro-sensitive strapping system that grips the skin.

Uses of the Theratogs Wunzi

Measurements for selecting Wunzi size:

• Length = Torso Length (in centimeters).
• Measure down from C-7 (the bib bone at the bottom of the neck) over the diaper and up to the child;s navel.
• Be careful to wrap the tape gently under the diaper
• Waist Size = Belly Girth (in centimeters)
• Measure the child;s belly circumference at the navel.
• Babies build trunk and neck control and strength before they gain functional skills. Trunk control problems that occur in infancy typically lead to long-term developmental deficits in limb use and movement. Postural control acquisition is a necessary component of early intervention.
