A Calming Presence for Active Minds
Transform moments of excess energy into calm focus with the manimo Weighted Dog. This silver velvet companion provides grounding deep pressure therapy, helping children and adults find relaxation and concentration during schoolwork, transitions, or periods of sensory overwhelm.
Why the manimo Weighted Dog Matters
Designed in Canada and recognized by the Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists (CAOT), this weighted animal is more than a toy—it is a scientifically-proven sensory tool. By applying 1 kg of distributed weight, it mimics a comforting hug to regulate the nervous system and reduce anxiety.
Weighted at 1 kg, it provides the proprioceptive input required to improve body awareness and emotional regulation.
Features a soft velvet coat for tactile seekers and a manipulable scarf that can be infused with essential oils.
The unique design allows it to rest securely on the shoulders, across the lap, or against the chest for tailored support.
Trusted by healthcare professionals and educators to manage symptoms of ADHD, Autism, and sensory processing disorders.
Technical Fit & Safety
For optimal therapeutic results, it is recommended that the manimo weighs approximately 10-12% of the user's body weight. This 1 kg model is ideal for smaller children or focused use on specific areas like the thighs or shoulders.
- Materials: Hypoallergenic polyester and spandex with non-toxic polyethylene internal beads.
- Maintenance: Hand wash in cold water with mild detergent to preserve the velvet finish.
- Recommended Age: Safe for users aged 3 years and older.
