Wilbarger Therapy Brush, 6 Pack – Therapressure Brush for Occupational Therapy for Sensory Brushing – Designed by Patricia Wilbarger – Use as Part of the Wilbarger Brushing Protocol

My son has tourette syndrome & unfortunately picks at his skin until it is infected. His therapist had given him a brush similar to this, but he lost it. I was thrilled to find these on Amazon & ordered them in a big pack. They were delivered fast & they work great. He uses them to brush his skin, instead of picking at it & it helps to prevent sores on him. They are the perfect size for his hands. He's a big boy at 11 years old & they work great for him.

Like a previous reviewer, I was surprised to find these on Amazon. My son has sensory issues and I have watched his occupational therapist use similar brushes on him with great effect. He really responds to brushing with these sensory brushes. We use them at night when he goes to bed if he's having a difficult time settling to sleep and it calms him down immediately. We have also given one to his school (he is in kindergarten) and the school psychologist comes and brushes him when the teacher requests it.At just slightly larger than 1 1/2 x 3 inches, they were a bit smaller than I expected, But they do the job. We don't have a handle and they work fine without one.

Good quality brushes for therapuetic brushing.

I bought this for my daughter whom has autism, cerebra palsy, white brain matter damage, and is also completely deaf in her right ear! My daughter is now 9 and her melt downs have gotten a bit worse at home and school, so this purchase has helped us tremendously, the value for my money amazing, and that’s a big thing in my home due to she’s one child of 5 yes we have a big family lol so value is so important, I was able to keep some at home and send some to school as well as for Annalis as some other children in her class enjoyed them too! Just wanna say thank u guys for what your doing has been an amazing experience!

We use this with youth that struggle with self-harm. We have about half of the youth that it works for and the other half that it don't. We still feel its a product well worth trying.

I purchased the Wilbarger brush 6 pack. To say that I am pleased with my purchase is an understatement! Years ago, as a new OT, I worked with adults with severe cognitive problems as well as multiple sensory integration issues. To help our client's get the best treatment we could provide,, another OT and I attended a comprehensive conference on Sensory Processing Disorders. How fortunate we were that Pat Wilbarger herself was teaching her technique! We all received our brushes and the person I was assigned to demonstrate my new skill on was Pat Wilbarger herself! Let me say these brushes that I just received are exactly like the one I used on Pat. Of course you are not brushing the person/child, you are using the brush to apply pressure. These brushes meet the all the criteria for use in a clinical setting or at home by a trained caregiver/parent. Wonderful find on Amazon!

We were given one of these at the hospital when my daughter was born for/to prevent cradle cap. She never had cradle cap but we used it to brush her hair because it is do much softer and better than baby hairbrushes. We bought more when it started to lose its bristles after 11 months and now she uses them to brush her hair. These are great for small kida and sensitive scalps.

Not what I wanted
