If you’ve ever chewed on a pen lid during an exam or noticed a child chewing their jumper sleeve when concentrating, you’ve seen how powerful chewing can be. That instinctive act isn’t random—it’s a natural form of self-regulation.
Enter chewelry: safe, stylish chewable jewellery designed for kids, teens, and adults. Far from being just a trend, chewelry is backed by research in neuroscience, occupational therapy, and psychology as a proven tool for focus, stress relief, and sensory regulation.
At Fidgeting Fingers, we’re proud to stock Chewelry – a safe, durable, and effective solution for sensory seekers of all ages.
Why Chewelry Works: The Science Behind Chewing
Chewing provides proprioceptive input (deep pressure signals to the jaw muscles). These signals travel straight to the brain and trigger calming effects.
Studies show chewing can:
-
Improve Focus & Memory – Research (PLOS ONE, Frontiers in Psychology) links chewing to increased blood flow in the prefrontal cortex, the brain’s “control centre” for focus and planning.
-
Reduce Anxiety & Stress – The repetitive chewing motion regulates stress pathways, calming the nervous system and easing sensory overload.
-
Offer a Safe Sensory Outlet – For people with Autism, ADHD, Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), or those who chew on clothing or pencils, chew necklaces provide a hygienic and safe alternative.
Who Can Benefit from Chewelry?
Chewelry isn’t just for kids – it’s a powerful tool for all ages:
-
👧 Children – helps with classroom focus, calming, and oral motor development.
-
👦 Teens – provides safe sensory input during study, exams, or social stress.
