Somnia Luxury Queen Size Bed Gravity 9kg Weighted Blanket - Grey

Many medical professionals worldwide agree that deep pressure stimulation helps relax and soothe the human body. Weighted blankets uses this simulation of pressure to offer relief and therapeutic support.

What is a Weighted Blanket?
A weighted blanket is in essence, a blanket with extra weight in it.
Weighted blankets provide deep touch pressure or DTP.
DTP is about gently applying pressure to the body to increase the release of serotonin, a chemical in the body that promotes relaxation.

Benefits of a Weighted Blanket
Weighted therapy can help increase the levels of Serotonin and Melatonin overnight.
Researchers also found that deep pressure significantly decreases cortisol levels. After applying deep pressure, cortisol levels dropped by 31%.

Fights Insomnia
Heavy blankets are mostly used for those with autism or sensory processing disorder, but more and more often they are being used for those with sleeping disorders, like insomnia or restless leg syndrome, as well as people who simply would like to improve their sleep overall.

The soothing effect of a weighted blanket can create a more comfortable environment for falling asleep by imitating the feeling of being swaddled tightly in bed. This close physical connection provides a sense of warmth and safety, making it easier for the body to relax.

Reduces Anxiety
A weighted blanket is a safe way to lower your stress level and help you reach a relaxed state.
The “relaxed state” results from serotonin production, which is necessary to release melatonin - the sleep hormone, which helps determine when we go to sleep and wake up based on our circadian rhythm.
This means it’ll be faster to fall asleep, reduce anxiety, go into deeper sleep, and move less throughout the night.

Triggers Release of Feel-Good Hormones
Deep pressure touch triggers the release of neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin, which are the two major feel-good hormones for your brain. Both these beneficial compounds can combat stress, depression, and anxiety, giving you an emotional pick-me-up after a quick snuggle session.

Mimics a Hug
Both hugs and heavy blankets trigger the release of oxytocin, a hormone that slows down your heart rate, reduces blood pressure, and promotes feelings of relaxation.
