Hello everyone , my father has been suffering from ataxia since 3 years almost. I heard about this balancewear vest. Is there any oppertunity to avail the vest without visiting the clinic because he is in pakistan and not holding a passport to travel . Waiting for response . Thanks

Hi Sarmad😊 Google balancewear.com to find out where your nearest therapist/distributor will be. I'm almost certain that for the moment the best opportunity would be to either travel to the US or Netherlands. This product is only available after a physical assessment takes place.

An alternative would be the OT Vest. This can be ordered online/by phone. Google OTvest.com 🙂xBeryl
