Weighted blankets for adults are designed to provide gentle, even pressure across the body, often described as a calming “hug.” This pressure activates the body’s natural relaxation response, helping to ease stress and promote a sense of comfort.

Benefits for Adults
• Improves Sleep Quality: Helps many people fall asleep faster and enjoy deeper, more restful sleep.
• Reduces Stress & Anxiety: The steady weight supports relaxation by calming the nervous system.
• Supports Sensory Regulation: Especially beneficial for adults with ADHD, autism, or sensory processing differences.
• Eases Restlessness: Can reduce tossing and turning, encouraging stillness and comfort.
• Promotes Relaxation During the Day: Useful not only for sleep, but also for winding down, reading, or quiet time.

Choosing the Right Weight

The general guideline for adults is a blanket that weighs about 10% of your body weight. For example:

100-120lbs- 10lbs blanket
• 120–150 lbs → 12lbs blanket
• 150lbs+ → 15lbs blanket
