Description
A weighted blanket is a type of blanket that is filled with glass beads, which provide deep touch pressure that has a calming effect on the body. They are often used to treat children with disorders like autism and ADHD, and can also be helpful for people with sleep issues, sensory processing disorder, and ADHD. When choosing the right size weighted blanket, we recommend that you weight yourself at 7-13% of your actual body weight. It can take 2-7 days for your body to get used to a weighted blanket, and it is typically smaller than an ordinary blanket.
