Why Choose a Weighted Blanket?

 

The decision to invest in a weighted blanket is personal, but numerous studies suggest they offer a range of health benefits. The gentle weight helps your body relax more quickly, significantly reducing stress and anxiety by soothing the nervous system.

Weighted blankets are particularly beneficial for individuals with sensory processing challenges, ADHD, and other neurological disorders. Many users find weighted therapy incredibly supportive, and it’s crucial to select the size and weight that best suits your needs.

 

Quick Order Guide

 

#### BACKING FABRICS:
Choose from our selection of luxurious fabrics:
- **Plain Cotton**: Durable 240gsm, 100% cotton. Perfect for warm sleepers and suitable for year-round comfort.
- **Dimple Plush**: Soft and fluffy 100% polyester mid-pile fabric that feels delightful against the skin.
- **Velvet**: Elegant low-pile 100% polyester fabric that offers a sumptuous touch and aesthetic appeal.

All our fabrics are carefully certified for quality and are safe for users of all ages.

#### WEIGHTING FILLERS:
At Sensory Owl, we pride ourselves on customising our blankets to your specific needs. Choose between:
- **Glass Granules**: These provide a smooth, fine texture reminiscent of sand.
- **Natural Gravel**: Ideal for eco-conscious users, offering a lightly textured feel for tactile stimulation.

Rest assured, all our fillings are certified and free from harmful toxins.

#### SIZE:
Selecting the right size is essential. Remember, larger blankets require more weight for the correct effect. For instance, if a child needs a 100x150cm, 2.5kg blanket, a larger 135x200cm blanket would ideally weigh around 4.5kg to deliver the same comforting pressure. Focus on the weight in contact with the body, rather than covering the entire surface.

#### ZIPPER OPTION:
We offer a unique version of the blanket with a zipper down the middle, perfect for couples who wish to share comfort!

#### WEIGHT:
Determining the right weight is personal and should be based on individual needs and the specific conditions being addressed. As a general guideline, the ideal weight is approximately 10% of the user's body weight, making it suitable for mild neurological disorders or first-time users of weighted blankets.

**To find the right weight for you:**
1. Reflect on your reasons for seeking a weighted blanket. If deep pressure is essential, consider opting for a weight between 12-15% of your body weight.
2. Select your desired size, bearing in mind that larger sizes necessitate more weight. For example, a child weighing 20kg and standing 140cm tall would need a 100x150cm blanket weighing about 2.5kg. However, for a sensory disorder, a weight of 3-5kg might be more appropriate, depending on the required pressure, anxiety levels, and hyperactivity.
3. In the comment section of your order, please provide your height, weight, and reasons for your purchase. With over 7 years of experience in weighted therapy, we collaborate with professionals to guide parents and caregivers effectively.

Unwind in style with your personalised weighted blanket and experience the soothing embrace it brings!

We hope these suggestions help you determine the right weight and size ratio for your weighted blanket:
