How to Pick the Right Size Weighted Compression VestUpdated 2 months ago
The Harkla Weighted Compression Vest is thoughtfully designed to provide the ideal balance of comfort, support, and effectiveness. When used as intended, the vest weight should be 5% of your body weight, ensuring the right amount of deep pressure stimulation for a calming and sensory-regulating effect.
To achieve the best fit, we recommend carefully measuring your child before making a purchase. Here's how:
- Width: Measure the circumference of the torso, ensuring the tape is snug but not too tight.
- Length: Measure from the top of the shoulder down to the waist for proper coverage.
If your child falls between sizes or is on the higher end of a size range, we recommend sizing up. A slightly larger vest provides room to grow while maintaining its therapeutic benefits.
By selecting the correct size, you’ll ensure that your child experiences the full benefits of the Harkla Weighted Compression Vest—helping them feel secure, comfortable, and supported throughout the day.
