In Phnom Penh, families of children with autism, ADHD, and sensory processing challenges are often looking for tools that can provide calm, structure, and comfort—especially in high-stimulation environments. One tool gaining recognition in therapeutic and home settings is the Sensory Peapod, now available at OrbRom Center.
This inflatable, wrap-around cushion offers deep pressure and tactile input that promotes regulation, focus, and relaxation. Whether used during therapy sessions or at home, the sensory peapod supports children in feeling safe, grounded, and ready to learn or play. It’s more than a product—it’s a critical part of many children’s sensory support system.
What is the Sensory Peapod?
The sensory peapod is a soft, inflatable pod that envelopes a child in gentle pressure. It mimics the effect of a calming hug—a sensation proven to reduce stress and anxiety for children with sensory challenges. The peapod supports:
-
Tactile Input: It helps children who are under-responsive or overly sensitive to touch by providing steady, deep pressure.
-
Proprioceptive Input: It improves body awareness, posture, and motor control.
-
Vestibular Input: When rocked gently, it engages the vestibular system to improve balance and spatial orientation.
At OrbRom Center Phnom Penh, therapists use the Sensory Peapod as part of daily sensory routines and during calming breaks in therapy sessions. The benefits are immediate—children often relax, smile, or even close their eyes once inside the peapod.
How It Supports Children in Phnom Penh
Children in Phnom Penh face the same sensory processing challenges as anywhere else in the world—but with fewer resources historically available. That’s why OrbRom Center has prioritized offering practical, affordable tools like the sensory peapod locally.
Benefits of the Sensory Peapod include:
-
Emotional Regulation: It’s perfect for children who struggle with meltdowns or anxiety. The peapod’s hug-like compression helps them feel more in control.
-
Transition Support: Use it between activities to ease transitions—especially helpful for children on the autism spectrum.
-
Focus Enhancement: Deep pressure helps reduce fidgeting and improve attention during learning.
-
Quiet Time: It provides a safe space for children to rest, decompress, and recover after overwhelming experiences.
At OrbRom, we often recommend the sensory peapod for children in our Special Needs Intensive Intervention program, where sensory integration is a key therapy component.
