Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions? We’re here to help
Is this really for adults or is it just a toy?
It’s a specialized wellness tool for everyone. While it looks like a plush, every Hugsio is specifically weighted to provide the deep pressure needed to ground adults during high-stress days or restless nights.
What’s the science behind the Hugsio hug?
We utilize Deep Pressure Therapy (DPT). This technique is scientifically shown to lower cortisol levels and stimulate your body's natural relaxation response, effectively "resetting" your nervous system through the power of a weighted hug.
How heavy is it? Will it feel uncomfortable?
Each Hugsio weighs approximately 1kg (2.2 lbs). The weight is strategically placed in the arms to mimic a real, comforting hug that feels secure and soothing, never overwhelming.
How is this different from a weighted blanket?
A weighted blanket covers you, but a Hugsio hugs you back. It’s a portable, cuddly version of DPT that you can carry from your desk to your bed for targeted relief whenever you need a sensory reset.
Can I sleep with my Hugsio?
Yes, and many do! The combination of softness and weight helps calm nighttime anxiety and promotes a deeper, more restorative sleep by making you feel safely held all night long.
What if the "Hug" doesn’t work for me right away?
Every nervous system is unique. While many feel an instant release, others may need a few days of consistent hugs to fully recalibrate. Hugsio is designed to be your long-term companion for peace of mind.
Is it safe for children?
A Hugsio hug is perfect for young adults and children over the age of 5. Due to the therapeutic weight, we do not recommend them for infants or very small children to ensure total safety.
Your mind deserves care too
Mental wellness is at the heart of everything we do at Hugsio. Our therapist-backed journals help you grow, heal, and thrive.
