The Long

‘’Necessity is the mother of invention’’ and that is how we started…

I am the mother of a wonderful autistic boy. I previously worked in the corporate world, and as a family, we strove to balance our work commitments with the unique needs of our son. His sensory requirements meant he needed specialist therapy products, yet at the time, my understanding of autism and sensory processing was quite limited. Nonetheless, I trusted my instincts and recognised that he needed something to help him regulate his senses. I also realised that my life would inevitably revolve around the subject of sensory processing disorder, and that a more flexible lifestyle was essential to provide my son with the stability and energy he deserved to thrive. This led me to create our very first weighted blanket and establish a business that connects me with parents and individuals on the spectrum. Sensory Owl is dedicated to celebrating individuality, personalisation, and the richness of different colours and textures. As everyone is unique, we strive to offer as much choice as possible.

 

Our product range comprises ready-to-go, off-the-shelf items such as body socks, tunnels, and hammocks, alongside a comprehensive selection of weighted therapy products. These therapy items offer a wide variety of colours, fillings, and textures.

All our weighted items are made to order, and each piece can be personalised with embroidery, perfect if you’re seeking a unique gift for a special someone.

We not only design and create but also collaborate with other interesting and unique brands. Our extensive knowledge, built over nine years of experience, is hugely thanks to our own customers. Their invaluable feedback has allowed us to deeply understand the true significance of topics such as Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), being on the spectrum, and Deep Pressure Therapy (DPT).
