Autism and Special Needs Furniture

I just discovered this site on special needs furniture.   This furniture looks as though it would be a great choice  for positioning and calming for someone with special needs.   This furniture is a great sensory integration tool for someone  with autism spectrum disorder or attention deficit disorder. Autismfurniture.com   The Story Of Autism & Special Needs Furniture Disabled at 16 in an auto accident and left  paralyzed on the left side of my body,  I needed special comfort and support  other furniture just couldn’t offer.  While attending the University of Oregon  I decided to design a new type of chair, one which employed specially cut foam  to create this type of support and relief.  As time went on more and more people  saw my first chair and wanted one of  their own, which lead to the creation  of Robb’s Pillow Furniture in 1973. As the business developed, demand  for new and different types of pillow  furniture grew. This in turn lead to  the birth of a wide variety of pillow  furniture; everything from pillow chairs, to “raindrop” chairs, to pillow beds,  massage sets, pet beds, and more! What sets our furniture apart from other  designers is the unique engineering that goes  into the support system in our furniture. The  process begins by applying a one of a  kind cutting method for the polyurethane  foam that acts as the backbone for our  furniture. This patented process cuts  the foam into specific multi-sided dimensions,  creating air spaces around the pieces that  gives a loft of comfort as well as a  “zero pressure point” feel. We don't add any additional chemicals to any of our products,  and the foam is out-gassed during the  cutting process, so our furniture works well for chemically sensitive individuals. Our furniture is then covered in only the  highest grade synthetic fabrics to ensure durability for years of use. Our furniture  will never go flat because fluffing enriches  and returns it to its original shape even  after years of usage. Our furniture can even be customized for firmness and support to satisfy any special needs! www.autismfurniture.com
