Introduction to the Wunzi Infant System
The Wunzi Infant System from TheraTogs, inspired by the well-known 'Onesie' for infants, is a groundbreaking product in the world of child therapy. Designed specifically for babies up to approximately 12 kilograms, this system provides a customizable "body hug" that improves trunk alignment and stabilizes the core. In this article, we explore the multiple benefits of the Wunzi Infant System and explore how it helps address developmental issues in infants.
Revolutionary design for early intervention
Postural control is an essential part of early intervention. Babies first develop trunk and neck control and strength before gaining functional skills. Problems with trunk control that occur in infancy typically result in long-term developmental deficits in limb use and movement.
Innovative functions and applications
The Wunzi System is designed to help very young patients by increasing sensory input while improving core stability. As one of our most popular products, it supports therapy goals both during and between therapy sessions and provides essential bridging. The basic system includes limb loops and ligaments to create optimal posture, while the additional limb kit works like external muscles and ligaments to improve body and joint alignment for better motor development.
Easy handling and comfort
Parents and caregivers appreciate the design of the system, which is worn over the diaper and is quick and easy to put on. Closure tabs are built directly into the garment - no loose tabs to keep track of. Like all TheraTogs systems, the Wunzi is a comfortable, foam-lined, Velcro-fastened clothing and strapping system that adheres to the skin. The patented composite is elastic, with a stretch bias that promotes good postural alignment - ideal for a growing baby.
In the next sections of this article, we will dive deeper into the specific applications of the Wunzi Infant System, share success stories, and provide practical tips for using and caring for this revolutionary therapy aid.
