How does a weighted blanket work?
A weighted blanket applies gentle, even pressure to the body, similar to a firm hug. This stimulates the nervous system and may help promote the release of serotonin and melatonin, neurotransmitters that play a role in regulating mood and sleep. It may also reduce the release of cortisol, the stress hormone.
Benefits of Weighted Blankets

Reduces stress and anxiety - Lowers cortisol and increases serotonin and endorphin levels.

Can a weighted blanket help with sleep problems, stress, or anxiety?
Yes, weighted blankets can help with sleep problems, anxiety, and stress. The deep pressure stimulation provided by weighted blankets can promote a feeling of calm and relaxation, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep. They can also reduce anxiety and stress by influencing the release of neurotransmitters and providing a sense of security.
Who is a weighted blanket suitable for?
Weighted blankets can be beneficial for people who have difficulty sleeping, experience anxiety, stress or sensory sensitivity, or need a sense of security and comfort. They may be suitable for adults, teenagers and children, but it is important to choose the right size and weight based on individual needs.
How do I choose the right weight?
When choosing a weighted blanket, it is important to consider the weight of the blanket. A general guideline is to choose a blanket that weighs approximately 10% of the user's body weight. It is also important to choose the right size so that the blanket can comfortably cover the entire body. In addition, it is advisable to pay attention to the blanket's material and quality for optimal comfort and durability.
Which weighted blanket is right for you?
