"Weighted blankets can help reduce anxiety in both children and adults. Helping many people achieve a relaxed state, allowing them to sleep more deeply. Weighted blankets help ground your body during sleep by pushing it downwards. This process, known as “earthing” or “grounding,” may have a deeply calming effect. The blankets also simulate deep pressure touch (DPT), a type of therapy that uses firm, hands-on pressure to reduce chronic stress and high levels of anxiety. Weighted blankets have been used for years in occupational therapy, particularly for people with autism.
Studies show that grounding may help reduce nighttime levels of cortisol, a stress hormone. This hormone is produced when your brain thinks you’re under attack, eliciting the fight or flight response. Elevated levels can cause multiple complications. These include depression, anxiety, insomnia & weight gain. By providing deep pressure touch, weighted blankets can promote relaxation and help break this cycle.
