The Octaband™
The Octaband™ is a fun, interactive
tool which promotes individuality and group cohesion through movement
for people of all ages and abilities. The
stretchy material, bright
colors,
and innovative design stimulate self-expression, spontaneity, and awareness
of others. The center circle provides a strong visual focus, and the
5 1/2" hem at the end of each arm allows those with limited grasping
ability to participate.
The Octaband™ has been used with great success by dance movement
therapists, recreation therapists, activities directors, occupational
therapists, special needs teachers, and team builders. It has been
found to be especially effective for use with children with physical
disabilities and special needs as well as with the elderly
with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias. 10% of net profits are donated to the Alzheimer's
Association.
