The weighted blanket is used for proprioceptive disorders, which occur in individuals with autism, ADHD, or sensory processing disorders, among others. It is also frequently recommended for insomnia, depression, and anxiety. The sensory blanket stimulates deep sensations and "calms" the nervous system. The blanket continuously stimulates the deep sensory system, which significantly helps reduce anxiety and stress. The happiness hormone serotonin increases while the stress hormone cortisol decreases. Covering the body with a blanket gives us a sense of security and relaxation, making it easier for us to fall asleep.

How to choose a blanket: The weight of a weighted blanket should be about 10-15% of the user's body weight. If the weight is too low or too high, the blanket will not fulfill its function. If the weight fluctuates between the two ranges, a heavier version of the blanket is recommended.
