What is Weighted blanket
What happens in your body when you wrap yourself up in a weighted blanket?
Your body perceives the feeling of being under a weighted blanket in a similar way that it would treat a warm hug from a loved one. So, what actually happens inside the body when you get under one of our blankets? First of all, your body can suppress the release of a hormone responsible for the feeling of stress, called cortisol, while at the same time releasing what’s known as “the happiness hormone” – serotonin, which can make you feel better instantly. Another hormone known to release while under a weighted blanket is oxytocin, also known as “the love hormone”. Hence you can feel a wave of relief and the feeling of cosiness. And finally, the release of melatonin (“the sleep hormone”) can ensure that you fall asleep faster and experience deeper sleep.
Weighted blankets have been observed to have the best effects when weighing around 10-15% of your body weight.

Recommendations
Allow your body to adjust
You should use your blanket according to your own personal needs. Still, to achieve the best results, you should allow your body to adjust to the weight of the blanket gradually. This will ensure that you have the best possible experience when using a weighted blanket.
A warm hug – the quickest way to relax, calm down and relieve stress or tension.
INSIDE WEIGHTED BLANKET
Inside every blanket, there are small glass balls. They distribute evenly throughout to make sure that you will not hear nor feel them. The glass balls are made out of certified materials that are completely friendly to the human body and the environment. They are the secret ingredient that gives the weighted blanket its weight, that gently presses down on you and makes you feel calm and relaxed.

Questions & Answers
One of the main questions that we get is how heavy should a weighted blanket be? The answer is that a weighted blanket should make up about 10% of your body weight.
Another question we get a lot is how to clean a weighted blanket. The blanket itself should only be washed in a commercial washer & dryer on gentle. The cover, on the other hand can be washed at home with cold water and mild detergent.
Some people don’t feel the benefits of weighted blankets because they don’t quite know how to use weighted blankets. As much as you would like to just unpack it and use it straight away, you should let your body gradually get used to sleeping under a weighted blanket. You should start with an hour a day, gradually increasing the time until you can comfortably sleep with a weighted blanket throughout the night.
Absolutely not, the glass beads that give the weighted blanket it’s weight are sown into the blanket in such a way that you won’t be able to feel them, nor hear them. They are spread evenly across the blanket, so you don’t have to worry about them all falling to one side.
