Weighted Blankets

A weighted blanket is filled with glass beads or similar materials to provide gentle, even pressure across your body. This sensation, known as Deep Touch Pressure, helps promote relaxation by encouraging the release of serotonin and melatonin while reducing cortisol levels.

Weighted blankets may help reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep quality, and provide a sense of comfort and security. Many users find them especially useful during restless nights or anxious episodes, thanks to the grounding, cocooning effect they provide.

 Most adults benefit from a blanket that’s roughly 7–12% of their body weight. For example, if you weigh 70kg, a 5kg to 8kg blanket is typically ideal. It’s best to start at the lighter end if you’re new to them, and avoid use in children who cannot lift the blanket themselves.

 Yes—many people use their weighted blanket nightly as part of their regular routine. As long as you don’t have medical conditions that make added pressure risky, they can be a consistent and comforting sleep aid. If unsure, check with a healthcare provider before long-term use.

 Children should only use weighted blankets designed specifically for their weight and size. Always supervise use and never use one on children who can't remove the blanket on their own. For little ones, a wearable blanket might be a safer alternative.

Most of our weighted blankets come with removable, machine-washable covers for easy cleaning. The inner blanket may be hand-washed or spot-cleaned depending on the materials used. Always follow the care label instructions.

 Absolutely. Pair it with breathable duvet covers or add a lightweight throws for extra texture and temperature control. Just avoid piling on too many layers, especially if you sleep warm.
