Meet Marty the Monkey, a weighted stuffed animal with extra-long front arms that hug you back. Marty helps you stay focused, feel safe, and reduce cortisol and anxiety. Whether you're working, studying, or winding down, Marty brings the comfort of a warm hug anytime you need it.

How it works

Marty the Monkey uses Deep Pressure Therapy (DPT) a calming technique that applies gentle pressure to the body, similar to the feeling of a hug.

When you hug Marty, it sends a signal to your brain that says:

"You're safe. You can slow down now."

This physical cue helps:

  • Activate your parasympathetic nervous system (helps you relax and recharge)
  • Lower cortisol levels (the stress hormone)
  • Reduce anxiety and overwhelm
  • Calm racing thoughts
  • Boost serotonin and dopamine (your happy and feel-good chemicals)
  • Support better focus and sleep

Whether you’re at your desk, in bed, or on the couch, Marty provides an instant wave of calm when you need it most.

Frequently asked questions

What’s the science behind this?

Our weighted animals use Deep Pressure Therapy (DPT), a calming technique shown by studies to reduce stress and anxiety by lowering cortisol levels and stimulating your body’s natural relaxation response. It’s like a wearable weighted blanket, but way more cuddly.

Is it washable?

Yes! We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth for everyday messes. For deeper cleaning, hand wash gently and air dry.

Can I sleep with Marty?

Absolutely. Many people love sleeping with our weighted animals for nighttime anxiety or insomnia. Their weight and softness can help calm your nervous system and promote deeper sleep.

Is it safe for kids or pets?

Anyone above the age of 5 can benefit from Marty!

All our weighted animals have the CPC Certificate (Children's Product Certificate) for product safety tested in the US, as well as the CE mark for product safety tested in the EU.

Due to his weight, we don’t recommend it for very young children or pets.

How heavy is Marty?

Marty weighs 1kg / 2.2 lbs, just enough to provide calming pressure without feeling too heavy. The weight is placed on Marty's arms so it can actually hug you and hold on to you while you work. It’s perfect for hugging while working, relaxing, or sleeping.

What if I don’t feel better right away?

Everyone’s nervous system is different. Some people feel relief instantly, while others notice benefits after a few consistent uses. Either way, Marty the Monkey is there for you for the long-haul!

Way more than any other stuffie

We felt frustrated with the other weighted animals in the market. Regular weighted animals were cute, but they never really worked. They were too small, too light, or they’d slip right off the second you tried to actually use them. 

That’s why we designed our weighted animals differently. Marty the Monkey has extra-long, weighted arms that wrap around you and actually stay put while you work, read, or scroll your phone. Marty is like a wearable weighted blanket, but so much more cuddly and practical!
