Sensory Therapeutic Tunnel
The sensory tunnel is the perfect device for children requiring proprioceptive stimulation. Squeezing through this tunnel filled with a special Styrofoam semolina provides a lot of tactile stimulation and is also a lot of fun for the child exercising, despite the challenge involved.
Thanks to its qualities, the soft tunnel can also be used as a beanbag chair with this type of filling. The child can lie, sit or roll around on it.
Children with sensory integration issues have a number of ways to react to the environment. Even though each child is special, there are few typical ways to respond to sensory input. Sensory integration is a way of describing brain processes that help us take, organize, and respond effectively to information received or gathered from our 5 senses.

Our Story
When my son was born with autism, my world changed & Sensory Direct was born
Ethan had been prescribed different forms of medication, and although they helped a little, I didn’t want to become reliant upon them, so Ethan’s Paediatric Consultant suggested a Weighted Blanket. I remember hearing this and thinking ‘what on earth is a Weighted Blanket’? At this stage I was blissfully unaware of how life changing that Weighted Blanket would become.
