Benefits

Adults, teens, and children can benefit from weighted blanket therapy. Weighted Blankets are a safe and effective non-drug therapy for anyone seeking a solution for loss of sleep and relaxation.

Like a firm hug, weighted blankets help us feel secure, grounded, and safe, this is the reason many people like to sleep under a comforter even in summer. (Source: Psychology Today)
