The average human being will spend around 33% of their life sleeping. Both the quantity and quality of sleep have profound impacts on our lives and when that sleep is disturbed it can result in an array of problems with mental and physical health.

SDO® Original Sleep Suit in No. 12 Ultraviolet

Patients with conditions that cause abnormal muscle tone are particularly vulnerable to sleep disturbance and that's why Medigarments Ltd created the SDO^® Original Sleep Suit, one of our signature products from the SDO® Original range. 

Carefully crafted to the highest specification from genuine dynamic LYCRA^® the SDO^® Original Sleep Suit is a Class 1 medical device. The made to measure garment delivers consistent, constant dynamic pressure, which gives the effect of therapeutic handling whenever the garment being worn. In addition, the SDO^® Original Sleep Suit has been shown to increase proprioceptive and sensory feedback, assist with motor learning processes and neural integration and deliver exceptional musculoskeletal support. 

SDO^® Original Sleep Suit corrects hip alignment & improves sleep

While the body is at rest during sleep, the unique SDO^® Original Sleep Suit promotes the correct alignment of the hips, while managing the potential of any deformity developing and supporting biomechanical management. Every made-to-measure garment is designed to meet the needs of each individual wearer; the suit directly contributes to an improved sleep pattern in terms of both quality and quantity, reducing the potential for disturbance due to associated discomfort and pain. The garment can be used in close conjunction with prescribed sleep systems, augmenting the beneficial effects of that system. 

The physical benefits of wearing the SDO^® Original Sleep Suit can be further enhanced with the optional inclusion of highly-effective reinforcement panels: standard panels assist with back extension and external hip rotation while lumbar panels assist with the management of postural control. 

Helps to improve patient compliance

As with many of the other therapeutic garments from Medigarments Ltd, the SDO^® Original Sleep Suit can be manufactured from an array of colourful themes which helps to improve patient compliance. All themes are provided absolutely free of charge with compliments of Medigarments Ltd.
