What is a weighted blanket?
A weighted blanket is a natural way to promote relaxation and improve your sleep. Weight can be provided by glass pellets of, in the case of our chunky knit, by the weight of the fabric itself. The weight creates pressure which has been proven to reduce anxiety - it's basically a giant hug - and takes away the day's stress.

How does it work?
Weighted blankets work on the principle of deep pressure therapy. Deep pressure or deep touch pressure is a form of tactile sensory input, and weight applied to the body stimulates dopamine and endorphins. Applying weight calms overactivity, bringing back a sense of grounding. You may have heard of deep pressure therapy being used with children and adults experiencing autism; weight can help dull overstimulated senses.
