Directional Design offers laboratory tested information through its Vestimological© consultation blog and "The Missing Link©" ebook series. These are available to all health care professionals witnessing the need for their patients in wheelchairs, for more mobility, less pressure damage from the body’s coverings, proper exposure prevention, and immediate improvement from psychological trauma.
Vestimology© is a dramatic new outlook with definite application principles to use directly with patients in wheelchairs. Vestimological© analysis demonstrates adjustments, applying medical technology to existing ready-to-wear clothing. By, treating and preventing rubbing abrasions and pressure related decubitus ulcers caused by existing the clothing. Vestimological© adjustments provide less pressure damage to the tender tissues below the skin surface while enabling more mobility, even for quads.
Using this Vestimological© Biological Equipment Analysis information allows one to include clinical decision making. Critical appraisal of biological equipment (clothing), and knowledgeable decision making can be used to correct the biological equipment (clothing) used by these patients.
The focus is on the principles and applications of concepts and techniques in clinically relevant issues for diagnosis and adjustments where biological equipment (clothing) is concerned.

Vestimology© introduces you to already existing biological equipment (clothing), its factors in the rationale for, and methods of evaluating adjustments in clinical and home situations. It addresses the questions most commonly asked of my administration and research center during presentation of the Sit-Down-Figure© Equipment Analysis. Vestimology© also presents an approach toward specific objectives of insurance/patient/family education.
Vestimological© information is available to advance the clinical knowledge of the health care industry. It brings further insight into the prevention and treatment for patients in wheelchairs with decubitus ulcers, psychological trauma, exposure, and mobility impairment.
You will be able to apply clothing solution principles to the Sit-Down-Figure© by:
-
Identifying the specific garment areas that create pressure and abrasion points.
-
Identifying psychological and emotional impact of clothing. How clothing problems impact the emotions, causing psychological trauma.

MEDICAL EDUCATION
Directional Design's research created the new paradigm of Vestimology©. The Latin word "vestus" means clothing and "ology" means the study of. Vestimology© is defined as the "medical study of clothing". It offers a whole new field of fashion study that unites medical and fashion industries. This new paradigm applies medical principles to clothing design to provide clothing solutions for Sit-Down-Figure© clothing problems. Application of medical and design principles creates garments with proper sizing, correct construction and appropriate textiles. The result is clothing that addresses the issues of mobility impairment, pressure abrasion, exposure problems and decutibi prevention.

Design principles, properly applied for sitting, squatting, climbing, and action oriented bodies, offer the garment industry an opportunity to add to existing garment lines.
With Directional Design’s Vestimological© information, you can apply Sit-Down-Figure© principles to your field of medical design, be it handicap, sport, formal, business or occupational uniforms.
By incorporating this information into your classroom sessions, your students will graduate with advanced knowledge over other students as they enter the workforce.
All levels of education from middle school through college, learning about Vestimology©, "THE MISSING LINK©" in rehabilitative medicine, will find this information both informative and very exciting in conversation and application.
