The Weighted Blanket, Re-Imagined

On-the-Go Comfort

Hugz are portable and compact but still provide comfort anywhere you take it, unlike bulky blankets.

Huggable Joy

Hugz offers emotional comfort by serving as a soft, huggable companion to envoke feelings of joy and calm, making it a more personal choice compared to a blanket.

Targeted Relief

Unlike a weighted blanket, Hugz provides targeted relief by applying gentle pressure to specific areas, such as your chest or lap, where you feel tension the most.

How it Works

  • Hold it Close

    Place the Hugz on your body, holding or cuddling it in a way that feels comforting to you. This simulates the feeling of being hugged, providing immediate calm and reassurance.

  • Activate DPS (Deep Pressure Stimulation)

    Let the gentle, even pressure promote relaxation of the parasympathetic nervous system, regulating your heart rate, breath rate, and blood pressure.

  • Enjoy the Hugz effect

    Experience reduced stress as cortisol levels drop, improved mood from serotonin release, and enhanced relaxation for a deeper, more natural sleep cycle.

Perfect for Cuddling!

I have Shelly laying on my chest as I type this on my phone in bed - it really is just like a hug! When y’all end up introducing a cat into a lineup I will be buying it pronto so Shelly can have a buddy. Thank you!

I love my turtle! He helps me sleep every night. Between how soft he is and his weight, I am able to turn off my anxiety and fall asleep faster.

Customer service is also fantastic!

Perfect Heavy

Sent the turtle to my college aged daughter on the other side of the world during a particularly stressful time and when I asked her if it was too heavy or a comfortable heavy she replied with it’s “perfect heavy”.

This is my third hugz and I love them all! The turtle has been great! I even took him on a car trip and I can’t explain how much more comfortable I was having him on my lap the whole time. Love❤️
