It simulates the feeling of a hug with laterally applied air pressure to calm, comfort and soothe the nerves of anyone who is stressed or anxious. Experience different pressure levels when you wear Tjacket by directly controlling it from your app, or by choosing from the automated pressure programs one that suit your needs. Developed in collaboration with senior occupational therapists, university researchers, clinical psychologists and educators, Tjacket can help people with sensory modulation difficulties who are sensory seeking and/or sensory over-responsive. |

Deep touch pressureDeep touch pressure can help improve the quality of life for people who face constant stress and anxiety. It improves the wearer’s attention and focus by helping to calm the wearer and regulate arousal levels.
Deep touch pressure can help children and adults with sensory modulation issues, which are commonly faced by individuals with conditions such as Sensory Processing Difficulties (SPD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). |
Perfectly PortableTjacket is controlled by an app via your smartphone/tablet so you can get customizable, portable deep touch pressure on the go without attracting any unwanted attention.
Our automatic air-pump system (an alternative to the heavy weighted vest), makes it light and convenient to be used both at home and outside, anytime and anywhere. |
Pressure to suit your needsAdjust the intensity, duration and frequency of pressure. At the press of a button, the chosen program will be activated to deliver calming and relaxing pressure patterns to suit the wearer's needs and moods.
This prevents the wearer's body from becoming habituated to the pressure, allowing Tjacket to enable longer periods of attentiveness to be achieved and better help the wearer cope with stress and anxiety. |
Effortless TrackingBuilt in sensors measure and automatically record activity levels and pressure usage. The app automatically stores and uploads activity and usage information onto our cloud system.
It's now ready to be accessed and analysed whenever you need it. |
