Why Compression Tubes?

They’re your Fast Track to Calm

Anytime, Anywhere

For our very first Sensory Spotlight, we’re thrilled to feature two of Sommerfly’s most-loved solutions: the Cozy Caterpillar™ and Super Cat™ Compression Tubes.

These tools reimagine deep pressure touch. Unlike passive weighted products, users push, stretch, and move against the fabric to create their own calming pressure, delivering soothing input that supports focus, reduces anxious feelings, and enhances body awareness.

Two Options, One Goal: Calm on Your Terms

• Cozy Caterpillar™

  • Lightweight & breathable — easy to manage, effective sensory input without overheating.

  • Open at both ends — easy entry/exit for safe and versatile positioning.

  • Quick on/off & portable — perfect for school, therapy, or on-the-go sensory breaks.  Conveniently folds to fit in your carry bag or purse.

• Super Cat™

  • Attached hood — cocoon-like pressure around head, neck, and whole body.

  • Adjustable foot closure — close the bottom and fine-tune compression, length, and fit for a custom, secure feel.

  • Enclosed, immersive design — delivers full-body calming input for higher sensory needs.

  • Engaging superhero look — fun for kids while providing security and stillness; ideal for home or therapy.

  
  

Both are portable, durable, machine washable, and made in the USA. Available in kids and adult sizes.

Overall, Compression tubes are a dynamic, self-directed sensory experience that meets the user where they are, helping them reset  to calm and regulate on their own terms.
