[ DIAGNOSTIC ]
The prescription, explained.
- What is this?
- Thoracic Softwear is the SOME DOSE category for chest and upper body wearables — jerseys, knit tops, and mid-layer pieces designed for the thoracic region. The chest, sternum, and upper-back are where the Shock accumulates — the physiological register of sustained screen-bound posture and ambient sensory overload.
- Who is it for?
- Prescribed for those who carry emotional weight in the sternum — a clinical description of people who round forward under stress, screen glare, or chronic low-grade environmental load. This category is also the first prescription for patients who report full-body Itch without a specific focal point.
- What does it cost?
- Thoracic specimens are priced from €80 to €220, EUR, VAT included. Made-to-order specimens ship within three to four weeks. In-stock specimens ship from Ireland within two business days.
- How does it work?
- Each specimen lists fiber composition, fabric weight in grams per square metre, and a recommended layering sequence on its product page. Thoracic specimens are the core layer in the SOME DOSE ritual — beneath Cranial, over Carpal, beside Lumbar.
[ FAQ ]
Common questions.
- What is Thoracic Softwear?
- Thoracic Softwear is SOME DOSE's category for chest and upper body wearables. The thoracic region spans from the first to twelfth thoracic vertebra, including the sternum and rib cage. For screen-bound workers, this region is the primary site of postural compression — rounding forward, narrowing the anterior chest — which correlates with heightened ambient sensitivity and increased tactile Itch.
- What is the Shock, and why does it concentrate in the thoracic region?
- The Shock is SOME DOSE's clinical term for the acute sensory load event — the moment ambient stimulus (noise, light, fabric irritation) exceeds the body's current tolerance threshold. The thoracic region concentrates it because the chest holds the diaphragm, which contracts under stress. A tight, itchy mid-layer during this state compounds the physiological response. Softwear that fits without constriction at the thoracic zone reduces one input variable in an already saturated system.
- What materials are used in Thoracic specimens?
- Thoracic specimens use Merino jersey (180–220 gsm), washed cotton knit, and structured cotton-synthetic blends depending on the specimen's functional brief. The priority is non-irritating body contact across a wide skin area. Material composition and care instructions are listed per product.
