” My, then 9 year old, daughter was struggling in school displaying an incredible amount of anxiety. Our amazing school OT, Amy A., diagnosed her with sensory processing issues and recommended SPIO pants for her. We were hesitant and unbelieving that a pair of tight pants would make a difference. We finally gave in and ordered a pair. The first day she put them her demeanor was completely different – she exhibited a significant reduction in anxiety. I formally dubbed them the “miracle pants” from that day forward. We are now on our second pair in in our second year of wearing them. She would not dream of attending school without them. The beauty is that she is now excelling academically and we know that our SPIO “miracle pants” play a significant role in her success. Thank you for a fabulous product! ”
