Why deep pressure can feel calming
A weighted plush toy works with soft, even pressure. This is often compared to deep pressure stimulation: a form of pressure that many people experience as soothing, safe and comforted.
A Hugsback is not a medical device and does not replace professional support. However, a weighted plush toy can provide comforting support during everyday moments of calm, for example during tension, sensory overload or before sleep.
