Weighted cushions are therapeutic products that support the development of sensory integration, improve concentration and help with calming. Thanks to their small size and wide range of application possibilities, they are perfect for therapy as well as for everyday use at home, at work or at school. Our weighted cushions are sewn by hand and are made of durable yet easy-to-clean fabrics.
Weighted cushions exert a gentle, deep pressure on the body, stimulating the sense of deep sensation (proprioception). Weighted cushions are placed on the knees, shoulders or other parts of the body. Their regular use helps to improve concentration and focus during study and work, reduces stress, has a positive effect on calming the nervous system, increases body awareness and overall motor coordination. Many people use them during activities that require concentration, such as homework, reading or manual work.
The correct choice of weight cushion depends on the weight and needs of the user. For people weighing up to 30 kg, a 30×40 cm cushion weighing 0.75 - 1.5 kg would be a good choice. Those weighing between 30 and 60kg should opt for a slightly larger and heavier cushion, such as a 40×50 cm weighing 1.5 - 3kg. For people weighing up to 100 kg, a cushion of 40×70 cm and weighing between 3 and 5 kg would be suitable. In order to choose a weight cushion that suits your needs, it is advisable to contact us or your sensory integration therapist before purchasing a weight cushion.
