Weighted Vests and Autism: What You Need to Know First and foremost, the use of a weighted vest with a child on the Autism Spectrum is merely a tool in the toolbox. Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) often have difficulty processing and integrating sensory information throughout their day. It is important to work with an occupational therapist to explore a number of sensory motor strategies to help your child achieve their goals and access their environment more independently. The use of a weighted vest may or may not be a tool that helps meet your child’s sensory needs but is likely worth exploring.

It is believed that when the central nervous system is well regulated, all physical processes are taking place more effectively. Due to this belief, the benefits of weighted vests may even extend to the child’s internal processes, including processing food more effectively, encouraging better sleeping habits, and impacting interoception (the sense of the internal conditions of the body including hunger, thirst, body temperature, etc.)
The benefits can occur in a very wide range with the most frequently reported being increased attention, focus and concentration as well as an increased sense of calm and reduction in anxiety. Additionally, other mentioned benefits include improvements in: Functional communication Executive functioning Problem solving Delayed gratification Higher ordered thinking Self-regulation/ emotional-regulation Body awareness Motor planning Coordination
