Soothing Weighted Blankets

The ultimate tool to help calm down and get a restful sleep. Custom made weighted blankets & lap pads for children & adults.

WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM A WEIGHTED BLANKET . . . Children and adults with Autism, Asperger Syndrome, PDD, ADHD, ADD, Sensory Processing Disorder, ( SPD is a neurological disorder involving smell, hearing, pain, taste, visual, temperature, and the body's position and movement, where the brain receives all the stimuli information, but can't make sense of it so it can react normally. ) Fibromyalgia, Alzheimer's, Multiple Sclerosis, Depression (a lack of serotonin in the brain is one of the causes of depression), Stress, Anxiety, Restless Leg Syndrome, Night Terrors, Work Stress, Insomnia, Sleep Apnea, and other sleep disturbing conditions.

HOW DOES IT WORK . . . Deep Pressure Touch Stimulation (DPTS) The gentle deep pressure of the weighted blanket causes the body to release serotonin, “the feel good” hormone, which in turn eventually converts over to melatonin, (the sleep hormone) causing the body to relax, and feel soothed, leading to calming down and falling a sleep quicker and easier, while helping to stay asleep through the night.
