The Southpaw Steamroller replacement bands are the essential accessory for keeping your deep pressure therapy equipment performing at its best. Available across North America, these durable elastic tension bands work with the Southpaw Steamroller Deluxe, Southpaw Advantage Line Steamroller, and Southpaw Steamroller Ramp & Platform Set to maintain the consistent resistance that makes proprioceptive therapy so effective. Whether the original bands have worn over time or you want to expand your pressure range, swapping them in takes only seconds.
The Steamroller is one of the most hands-on sensory tools available - children, teens, and adults physically work their body through the foam rollers, and the tension bands are what define how challenging and rewarding that experience is. Adding bands increases resistance for a deeper proprioceptive challenge; removing bands eases the pressure for younger users or those just starting out. Keeping a supply of replacement bands on hand means the sensory experience stays consistent and ready, whether in a therapy clinic, a school sensory room, or a family home.

Why Deep Pressure and Proprioceptive Input Matter
When users crawl through the Steamroller rollers, their muscles and joints receive sustained deep pressure and proprioceptive feedback - a form of sensory input that helps the nervous system feel grounded and organised. For children and adults who benefit from this kind of input, the tension bands are what calibrate the experience. Too loose and the pressure is negligible; well tensioned and the rollers deliver the full-body compression that supports motor planning, body awareness, and shoulder stability.
Occupational therapists often use the Steamroller as part of a structured sensory diet, and the ability to adjust and replace bands ensures the equipment keeps meeting each client's therapeutic goals as they develop.
Ideal for
- Children, teens, and adults using the Southpaw Steamroller Deluxe, Advantage Line, or Ramp & Platform Set
- Occupational therapy clinics maintaining their sensory integration equipment
- Schools and special education settings with multi-user Steamrollers
- Families building a home sensory space and wanting the Steamroller to stay fully functional
It is easy to swap out your old elastic loops to keep the deep pressure feeling consistent. These bands allow you to customize how much resistance the rollers provide during use. Just slip them on to ensure the machine stays challenging and effective for motor planning exercises.
*Note that the Southpaw Streamrollers are not included with the purchase of the bands
