The story behind it all
Snug Bug was founded in the early 2000s by Tessa, who continues to personally craft each heat pack with care and precision. What started as a small idea quickly became a trusted name in comfort and pain relief.
Snug Bug was founded in the early 2000s by Tessa, who continues to personally craft each heat pack with care and precision. What started as a small idea quickly became a trusted name in comfort and pain relief.
Tessa, an accomplished seamstress, first made a few heat packs for her family after noticing a lack of high-quality options available. Word spread quickly, and soon physiotherapists and chiropractors across the city were placing orders. Demand soared, and before long, Snug Bug became a household name—offering a safe, effective, and natural way to soothe aches and pains.

Tessa could not have chosen a better name for her company. Her bean bags keep myself, family and patients Snug as a Bug! Excellent quality, efficient and friendly service.

We have been using Tessa's snug bugs in our physio practice for at least 14 years now. They are very popular with our patients for pain relief, muscle pain and stiffness in all areas of the body and to help with stomach cramps and sports injuries. In fact Snug Bugs uses are endless! They are so comfy to use and the covers are washable. We will continue to use Tessa's Snug Bugs for as long as she continues to make them. We love them!

I recently purchased a heat pack from Tessa (Snug Bug), and I couldn’t be happier with both the product and the service I received. From the moment it arrived, I could see and feel the quality—beautifully made with care, using excellent materials and precise stitching. As someone dealing with a hip injury, I’ve already found so much comfort in using it while working at my desk. What I especially appreciate is the thoughtful design: I love that you can remove the cover to wash. I can easily adjust the heat level by varying the microwave time, and the pack retains warmth for a surprisingly long time. It’s both functional and comforting. As a small business owner myself, I understand the dedication it takes to create something that not only works but works exceptionally well.
