Acting like a tight hug, the Slumber Weighted Blanket from Marvel-X will help you calm down and relax, helping towards a better night's sleep.
This anxiety blanket has been designed with individual square pockets of environmentally friendly, non-toxic, hypoallergenic glass beads to ensure that they remain evenly distributed and stay in place inside the breathable fabric. This also offers maximum comfort while you sleep.
This heavy blanket applies a delicate but firm pressure that reaches the deep-seated receptors and helps with the release of serotonin and endorphins, which are chemicals that our body naturally produces to make us feel calm and relaxed.
Dramatically increasing the chances of a good night's sleep, this blanket is the perfect companion for people suffering from insomnia. It's also a great choice for people with sensory integration and psychomotor disorders, such as autism and ADHD.
Several weights are available. Marvel-X recommend that the blanket weighs approximately 10% of the user's body weight. We have included a guide below. If your own body weight falls in between the below body weights you may prefer to opt for the lighter option:
