Weighted blanket — your path to better sleep and relaxation

Weighted blankets, also known as therapeutic blankets, are products designed to improve the quality of sleep and reduce stress and anxiety. The evenly distributed weight of such a blanket creates a gentle hugging effect, which helps to relax the body and mind. This allows the user to fall asleep faster, and the sleep becomes deeper and more restorative.

Studies show that using a weighted blanket can increase serotonin and melatonin levels – hormones responsible for good mood and healthy sleep. At the same time, it reduces nervous arousal, which promotes full relaxation. The effect is peaceful sleep and a better mood after waking up.

Weighted Blanket Guide

Everything you need to know about selection and benefits

01

How to Choose a Weighted Blanket

Wondering how to choose a weighted blanket? The basic rule is simple: weighted blankets for adults should weigh about 10% of the user's body weight. This proven formula helps most people find their optimal weight.

Individual Weight Selection

People who prefer stronger pressure can choose a weighted blanket weighing 12-15% of their weight. Meanwhile, sensory-sensitive individuals often sleep better under lighter models — 7-9% of body weight. Weighted blankets for children require caution — start at 5% of the child's weight and gradually increase, observing reactions.

Filling Type

Weighted blankets with 0.6mm glass microbeads are virtually silent — perfect choice for couples. Larger beads (1-1.2mm) rustle gently, which helps some people relax. Avoid plastic fillings — only glass ones are fully hypoallergenic.

Proper Size

Weighted blankets for adults should cover the body, not the entire bed. Standard dimensions are 135x200 cm or 155x220 cm. Weighted blankets for kids are smaller — 100x150 cm or 110x170 cm is sufficient. Too large a blanket will slide off, losing its therapeutic effect.

Tip: Use the blanket for only one hour daily during the first week. Let your body adjust to the new stimulus.
02

Why Weighted Blankets Work

Weighted blankets use deep pressure stimulation, which naturally calms the nervous system. It's not magic - it's a physiological response confirmed by scientific research.

Body's Response

Under the even pressure of weighted blankets, heart rate slows by 5-10 beats per minute within just 15 minutes of use. Muscles relax, breathing deepens. Weighted blankets for adults work similarly to relaxation techniques used in physiotherapy.

Hormonal Changes

Weighted blankets affect hormone production: serotonin (happiness hormone) increases by about 28%, while cortisol (stress hormone) drops by up to 45%. Melatonin production also increases, making it easier to fall asleep. Studies show that 7 out of 10 people fall asleep faster under weighted blankets for adults.

Who Benefits Most

Weighted blankets for children with ADHD help reduce hyperactivity before bedtime. Adults with insomnia report an average of 2-3 fewer awakenings per night. Shift workers find it easier to regulate their circadian rhythm. How to choose a weighted blanket for specific needs? Consider consulting a specialist.

Tip: Best results come from using the blanket regularly for at least 2 weeks.
03

For the Family

Each family member needs their own blanket. 73% of families worldwide suffer from sleep deficit — chronic fatigue affects health, relationships, and productivity.

For Every Age

Weighted blankets for children aged 3-8 should weigh 2-3 kg. Teenagers need 4-6 kg — weighted blankets help them focus better during studying and fall asleep faster after an intense day. Weighted blankets for adults typically weigh 6-10 kg, depending on body weight and preferences.

Special Needs

How to choose a weighted blanket for someone with ADHD? Start with 8% of body weight, observe reactions for a week, then possibly increase weight. Weighted blankets for children with autism should have smooth texture — avoid rough materials. Seniors often prefer lighter models (5-7 kg) that don't strain joints.

Is It Worth It?

One weighted blanket for adults costs about $320. Over 5 years of use, that's 17.5 cents daily for better sleep. Compare that to the cost of sleeping pills or specialist visits. Weighted blankets with safety certification and long warranty are investments that pay off.

Remember: First buy a blanket for the person who sleeps worst. Positive effects will motivate other family members.

Trivia:

Materials: Cover made of luxurious 100% cotton.

Filling: Inside the quilt is non-toxic glass sand that adds weight and elastically wraps you in a warm embrace.

Easy to install and care for: Simply remove and replace the cover, throw it in the washing machine, then hang it to dry.

Secure Fit: The weighted duvet cover has an internal zipper and 8 attachment loops that hold the duvet securely in place, preventing it from sliding and falling.

Frequently asked questions

If you have any additional questions, please contact us .

How much should a weighted blanket weigh?

We recommend that the weighted blanket for a single user should be 10% of their body weight. If the weighted blanket is used by two people, its weight should be adjusted to the average weight of both users. In the case of fractional values, round down. Before purchasing, familiarize yourself with the features of the weighted blanket to choose the solution that is ideally suited to your individual needs.

Are weighted blankets also for children?

The sensory blanket is not recommended for children under 3 years of age. However, older children can use it just like adults.

How to wash a weighted blanket?

A weighted blanket is safe to wash in a washing machine. However, make sure it is rated for that weight. You will find more detailed instructions on how to care for the blanket on the product packaging.
