Answer: We sure do offer The Squeeze Machine. The Squeeze Machine is used for deep touch stimulation and produces a calming effect on hyperactive and autistic individuals. The Squeeze Machine allows the individual to control the amount of pressure, as well as the release of pressure.The Squeeze Machine can be used by children and adults because it is adjustable in a number of ways. The machine has a series of slots and holes to allow approximately 14" of adjustment in width at the base of the pads. There are also slots to adjust the headrest height, slides to adjust for differing head widths, and the hand control center is adjustable from side to side and from front to back.

Question: Do you sell a squeeze machine? - From Karen Matthews
It consists of two padded side boards which are hinged at the bottom to form a Vshape. The user steps into the machine and lies down on the inside of the V-shaped crevice-like space. The inside surfaces of the device are completely lined with thick foam rubber. Deep touch pressure stimulation is applied along both sides of the person's body, with lateral pressure pushing inward onto the body. The V-shaped space supports the body fully from head to toe, so that the users can completely relax. The contoured padding provides an even pressure across the entire lateral aspect of the body without generating specific pressure points. The foam-padded headrest and padded neck opening are covered with soft fake fur. The user has complete control over the amount of pressure applied. A lever-operated pneumatic valve, which is connected to an air cylinder that pulls the side boards together, allows the user to self-regulate the amount of pressure applied.
