Can Otteroo be Used in Aquatic Therapy?Updated 11 days ago

Otteroo is intended to provide buoyancy to promote free movement in the water to support natural development and is not intended to diagnose, cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent a disease or condition.

That said, Otteroo has been used widely by many therapists since our inception in 2014. In 2017, we pursued registration as a class 1 medical device to enable more medical practitioners to have easy access to use Otteroo in their practice.

In 2022, the FDA challenged our class 1 registration and we are actively working with them to find an avenue to classify our floatie in a category they deem appropriate.

If you are interested in using Otteroo for aquatic therapy, we suggest you consult with your pediatrician/physical therapist to evaluate whether it is a right fit.
