Are They For Real?

Weighted blankets have long been used by therapists as a tool for helping patients to relieve stress, sleep disorders and anxiety. 

According to a published study*:

•    33% of people using a weighted blanket had decreases in nervous system overactivity
•    63% reported lower anxiety
•    78% preferred the weighted blanket as a tool to relieve anxiety over any therapeutic option


How It Works

The concept behind the blanket taps into 'proprioception' which is essentially the body's ability to receive input through receptors in our skin, muscles and joints that send information to our brain via the nervous system so that the body can sense itself. The added weight of the blanket tells your brain about your body's position in space, allowing it to unwind and enjoy a blissful, soothing sensation.


Our Blankies

Our blankies come in two parts that tie together - an inner blanket and a cover. The 100% cotton inner is filled with micro glass beads encased in a grid style quilt stitch to ensure even weight distribution over your body, so that it sits perfectly in place every time you use it. 

The washable cover is made from a snuggly, removable polyester zipped fleece (one side quilted/the reverse is plain) and includes inner ties to secure the weighted blanket to the cover.

Slip under the blanket while you watch TV, over your knees on car rides or on your bed for a deep, restful slumber. Said to increase mood, focus and relaxation it has also been suggested that weighted blankets can assist with sensory processing disorder (SPD), ADD/ADHD, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, restless leg syndrome or any other condition that can affect mood. 

Weighing 8.3kgs in total, the blankets are intended for people approx 50 kilos and over, and those strong enough to lift them. Please see IMPORTANT NOTES below - then....well....lie back and RELAX!
