When we think of hammocks, usually the image of relaxing on a balmy
weekend afternoon pops in mind. And why not; they are comfortable,
allow you to gently sway under the shade of a tree and thus are a
perfect backyard accessory.
They're also usually portable enough to be
used indoors or out and even taken along on trips and holidays. However
hammocks have other, less well-known benefits.
☼ They are an important
tool in many physical rehabilitation centres, providing important
vestibular therapy to children and adults with proprioceptive
dysfunction, tactile defensiveness, Autism, Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD), Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Asperger's and many other disorders. You can read more about it in the resources section.
