Expert Review: How the Weighted Collar Supports Focus and Calms Sensory Overload

Why We're Fans of the Weighted Collar at Our Practice
At Praktijk Op Stap, we work with many children who struggle with restlessness, tension, and sensory overload. Finding tools that truly help them regulate and feel safe is a big part of our mission.
Since we started using the weighted collar from Blusss, we’ve noticed something remarkable. Children who are usually very tense visibly relax. For many, the collar is so soothing that they only want to take it off at the end of the session.

It offers deep pressure that helps them process sensory input better, feel more grounded, and increase their concentration during tasks. Especially for children who struggle with focus or can’t sit still, the effect is clear: more calm, more control, more presence.
We’ve seen it. We believe in it. We’re fans.
