How it works

Using a weighted blanket can allegedly provide a calming and soothing effect. The theory of deep pressure stimulation is that it provides a similar effect to a hug, promoting release of oxytocin, serotonin and other chemicals. It can also be useful at night to prevent excess movement or even lower your heart rate. Many options can be found on the internet just searching for “weighted blanket”, on stores like Amazon or various others.
