No, the spikes are pretty spikey but rounded off, not sharp like a needle. It's meant to give your hands something to press into, not something to wince at. Use your own discretion for how hard you want to squeeze it.
It's designed for adults and older kids. Always supervise little ones since it's a small object with fine detail.

Loved by thousands
It lives in my pocket now. I reach for it on the train, in meetings, everywhere.
Squeezed it the whole time and barely noticed the needle. Genius little thing.
I keep CC at work, squeezing it whenever i feel agitated or become distracted. My collogues love it too, picking it up when they come for a discussion.
This is such a satisfying fidget, which really helps to focus your mind onto the feeling in your hands (or rubbing on your feet, back wherever feels good to release tension!) and distract you from whatever you need distracting from!
Just beginning to introduce it to my children as well when they’re needing help calming down! 👌
Calm Companion is my little go to for regulating my nervous system whenever I feel a bit heightened or out of control. A few squeezes and deep breaths and I’m feeling more grounded and present. The perfect little tool to pop in my bag!
Took my Calm Companion to the dentist the other day for a deep clean and omg my only regret is not bringing two because I needed one in each hand 😂
It was actually awful hahah and I genuinely think I would’ve pulled the plug halfway through if I didn’t have something to squeeze and focus on. It just gave me something else to think about instead of the scraping and all the horrible noises lol.
Even the dentists were so interested in it and kept saying what a good idea it was. Definitely buying a second one before my next appointment hahaha
The perfect size, texture, pressure for the palm of my hand. I absolutely love these.
I’ve been a Doula for more than 15years offering many tools to use for natural pain coping techniques and management. I just got my hands on (pun-intended) My Birth Weapon and absolutely love it! It will be in my Doula Bag and come with me to every Labour.
This arrived a week ago and it has not left my side! It’s sooooo soothing and it helps to ease my joint pain/ stiffness in my hands, as well as leaving me feel calmer. ❤️
It’s great. I forget with this over picking my nails.
I am a nervous flier and was flying first time with my 9 month old during a weather warning. I was obviously getting quite anxious and bubs was picking up on this so was also anxious. The flight went ahead after being 1.5hours delayed and it was bumpy, I remembered I packed my calm companion and just started playing with it and rolling it along my babies back. She ended up falling asleep so quickly and I relaxed ALOT without even realising - so much so that when the plane was redirected back to where we left I felt so calm and relaxed that it didn’t bother me. I can definitely say the calm companion helped me here.
This hard wooden spiky ball worked really well as a calming tool. The firm texture provided great sensory input and helped feel more relaxed and settled. It's well made, easy to use, and has been very effective for promoting calmness and focus. Highly recommended.
What a genius idea for a tool that helps with anxiety. So therapeutic on many levels - even with aesthetic- so a beautiful piece of art to have on the desk too.
Love these wee balls! I got them for my teenaged daughter (she has AuDHD) to use as a sensory tool. Rolling the balls between her hands/squeezing them provides her with a calming pressure that helps her focus, self-regulate or relieve anxiety. Brilliant :)
Very useful full during school to keep me relaxed and focused, it is also great for my ADHD as a fidget
Something so simple to have, used it during a tattoo to give it a go and was such an easy tool to have to keep me distracted and minimise my thoughts on the pain! Now is apart of my day to day work on the lappy! So good
Wasn’t a believer until I tried one for myself. Amazing!
Okay but I’m genuinely never flying without these again hahaha. I’m such an anxious flyer and we hit quite a bit of turbulence on a recent flight so they definitely got put to the test. I just sat there squeezing/rolling them in my hands and it honestly stopped me from fully spiralling. It gave me something to focus on and weirdly just made me feel more grounded and calm.
Then when the flight smoothed out I shoved one between my back and the seat because my back was sore and omg. Instant mini massage. Actually so good.
Such a random little thing but I could not have been without them on that flight.
I've given one to my ADHD daughter for at school. She was taking squishies to fidget with but breaking them or other kids were breaking them. Gave her tghis, and she loves it. Her teachers also love it.
Had the absolute privilege of trying out Calm Companion for my elective c-section.
I did think, “how on earth would this help during a c-section?” Well… approx 12 hours before my elective booking, I went into spontaneous labour. I used Calm Companion during the surges and it really helped me focus on my breathing by almost spreading the contraction pain over a larger area of my body, which made them feel more manageable.
I ended up taking one into surgery with me too, where I used it to keep my mind busy. I like to have something to fidget with when I’m nervous and this worked so well for me. I was able to have a laugh with the staff and actually felt really relaxed.
The use of Calm Companion hasn’t stopped there either. At 2 weeks postpartum I use it every feed to massage my breasts before and during feeding to help minimise clogs as an oversupplier. It also softens the tissue to help baby latch easier.
I can definitely see myself using this more often, from knots in my back and shoulders to sore feet.
It’s well worth the purchase and definitely something I’ll be including in gifts for my mama friends!
