Australia Clinical Sensory Support

Tools for Emotional Regulation and Focus

Clinical sensory support tools play a vital role in helping individuals manage their sensory needs, regulate emotions, and improve focus. These tools are not just aids for therapy sessions but also empower individuals to thrive in everyday life. In Australia, Kaiko Fidgets has emerged as a trusted provider of sensory solutions, offering tools designed for children, teens, and adults. Their products, which blend practicality with empathy, are highly effective in meeting diverse sensory needs across work, home, and school settings.

Designed for Real-World Impact

The story of Kaiko Fidgets begins with Kai, an autistic and dyslexic teenager, who started creating fidgets at age 11 to address his own sensory needs. “My name is Kai, and I am autistic & dyslexic. I first started making my own fidgets when I was 11 because I couldn’t find anything that wasn’t noisy or embarrassing!” Kai shares.

Today, with the support of his mother Jo, an Occupational Therapist, Kaiko Fidgets offers a wide range of tools that are “SUPER COOL & mainly made of metal.” As Kai proudly states, “Using my fidgets has really helped me with my anxiety & also to concentrate at school. It feels good knowing that my fidgets are helping others!”

The Role of Sensory Tools in Clinical Support

Sensory tools provide crucial support in managing anxiety, improving focus, and fostering emotional regulation. As Ebony Birch-Hanger, a Teacher of the Deaf & Neurodevelopmental Therapist, notes, “Fidgeting can be a very important learning tool for students & adults alike, particularly for those who find it challenging to sustain attention or have anxiety. We process much of the information we receive through our auditory system. Many need to move to process auditory information effectively.”

Movement enhances vestibular processing, which directly contributes to better attention and auditory processing. Tools like the Kaiko Wrist Spikey or Chain Range provide this kind of physical engagement, supporting individuals in achieving sensory balance.

Real Testimonials: A Trusted Resource

Kaiko Fidgets has garnered praise from a wide range of professionals and users, reflecting the versatility and effectiveness of their products:

  • Tricia Mauger, Director and Paediatric Occupational Therapist at Planted Parenting, highlights:
    “Fidgets that are trendy for tweens, teens & adults are scarce. In fact…until I came across the Kaiko team, I was certain they did not exist! It is incredible to think a tween boy decided there was a gap in the market, and he needed to have something he felt comfortable to hold & use when around his peers. Clients I see crave the weight & proprioceptive input that the Kaiko range provides…The input I receive with each purchase is informative, insightful, and evidence-based. I can’t sing their praises enough.”

  • Lucy Holmes from 89.9LightFM shares her experience:
    “As a radio host, I sit in front of a microphone for three hours a day, five days a week, and the early mornings make it hard to concentrate sometimes! I have found playing with Kaiko fidgets has been amazing for my concentration! I’m addicted to them, and they are now a part of my morning routine on air! Thanks, Kaiko! We love you!”
