A cage of calibrated elastic bands that suspends a child inside a controllable force field — enough support to hold alignment, enough resistance to demand real motor planning.
Together with the Space Suit, this forms the first comprehensive suspension therapy package developed in Iran, placing the country fifth in the world after Russia, the United States, Poland and Brazil. Developed with biomechanical engineers, metallurgy experts and mould designers. Installed in more than 100 centres across Iran, Azerbaijan, Iraq and Oman, and the subject of seven comprehensive national training courses. Children who could not stand using traditional methods were able to stand independently within four weeks of using the system.
