Nigel is a custom-weighted polar bear designed to provide soothing deep pressure input for individuals of all ages, from children (ages 3 and up) to adults. Inspired by the same calming principles as weighted blankets, Nigel helps promote relaxation, body awareness, and emotional regulation through comforting, gentle weight.
Nigel is trusted and used in homes, hospitals, clinics, residential programs, and schools.
Each bear features a special paw pocket to hold an essential oil swatch (included), with a sample of lavender or peppermint oil provided.
Additional essential oil recommendations are available upon request.
Nigel is machine washable for easy care and comes with his first story, The Nigel Story, as a downloadable PDF — a heartwarming introduction to his therapeutic journey.
