Physical therapist - I am quite impressed with the Vidget seat, and it’s multiple uses. Many clients have found this physical therapy aide to be invaluable, and an easy way to accomplish excellent exercises with their child.

Occupational therapist - Before using the Vidget with my clients I sat on it at home first. I found myself exercising my lower back and hips because the chair encourages movement. That is when I knew my clients would greatly benefit from this incredible product - you exercise without realizing it.

Physical therapist - The Vidget engages the posterior chain. This is key in the healthy balance of a child and I am a great believer in this chair. It’s a wonderful invention. 
 
Parent -  After just 2 weeks of using this chair I can already see a huge difference with my daughter. I was expecting it would take some time for her to get used to the Vidget, but I was wrong. Thanks for such a great product.
 
Parent -  My Autistic 6-year-old son has been able to focus more attentively while sitting on his Vidget. Not only is his overall focus better but his speech therapy has become more effective. We love the Vidget!
