Inspired by the calming ritual of petting a horse. A portable, wearable tactile comfort tool designed for moments when you need grounding, sensory support, or nervous system regulation. Inspired by the quiet grounding presence of horses, this dual-texture forearm sleeve offers two distinct sensory experiences — the smooth feel of a sleek horse coat and the plush warmth of winter fur. A portable comfort companion for animal lovers, sensory-sensitive, and neurodivergent individuals. It easily attaches to the forearm with velcro (which won't be felt as it's on the inside once attached to the forearm).
People often find comfort in making patterns on the "furry side," as well.
Available in two colors: brown/beige or black/white, AND multiple sizes, including kids.
My name is Lisa Hepner. As a person who has greatly benefited from equine-assisted therapy, I was searching for a tool to help remind me of the grounding presence of horses in between therapy visits. I didn't find anything out there, so I made one for myself. I showed my soothing sleeve to others, including my equine therapist, and the response was overwhelmingly positive, so I decided to start offering them to others. I hope that these Soothing Sleeves will provide comfort and support to you as well. It's a great gift for horse lovers, equine therapists, and equine therapy clients.
