Key Therapeutic Benefits:
The primary benefit of a weighted shoulder hugger is Deep Touch Pressure (DTP), a firm but gentle squeeze that stimulates the release of calming neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine.

• Reduces Anxiety & Stress: 
  The "hug-like" sensation helps lower cortisol levels and provides a grounding effect that eases physical tension in the neck and shoulders.
• Improves Focus: 
  By providing constant proprioceptive feedback, it helps the brain "filter out" distracting sensory information, making it easier to concentrate on tasks like studying or office work.
• Aids Self-Regulation: 
  It is highly effective for individuals with ADHD, Autism (ASD), or Sensory Processing Disorder to help them settle down and manage overstimulation.
• Better Sleep Prep: 
  Wearing the wrap before bed can help transition the body into a relaxed state, promoting faster and deeper sleep.

General Care Guidelines:

Spot Clean First: 
For small spills, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Gently dab the area rather than scrubbing to protect the fabric fibers.

Avoid Harsh Chemicals: 
Never use bleach or fabric softeners. These can degrade the fabric and, in some cases, affect the integrity of the internal beads.

Cold Water Only: 
Always use cold or lukewarm water (below 30°C) to prevent the filler from melting or clumping.

Avoid the dryer (Melting Risk): 
Weighted huggers are filled with plastic poly-pellets. The high heat of a dryer can melt these beads, causing them to clump together or even leak through the fabric.

Washing Instructions:

Drying Instructions:
Air drying flat is the safest method for weighted products.

• Lay Flat: Spread the hugger on a clean, dry towel. Flip it every few hours to ensure even drying and to prevent the beads from shifting to one side.
• No Hanging: Never hang a wet weighted hugger; the weight of the water and beads can stretch the fabric and strain the internal stitching.
• Tumble Dry (Caution): If the care label allows, use the lowest heat or "air fluff" setting. High heat can melt plastic poly pellets or damage the fabric's soft texture.
