Our Wellbeing Collection has been designed specifically with your sleep wellness in mind, helping you to achieve a calm and restful night\'s sleep. Introducing calm, relaxation and a great big hug, all wrapped up in one lovely weighted blanket. The Silentnight Weighted Blanket is natural sleep therapy at its best. This weighted blanket helps to relax the nervous system giving the gentle sensation of being hugged which eases anxiety, stress and encourages deep and restful sleep. Wrapping yourself in the blanket increases happy hormones (serotonin and melatonin) and at the same time decreases stress hormones (cortisol) to improve your mood, ensuring you fall asleep feeling content and happy. The blanket is filled with tiny glass beads that offer comforting pressure to your body. These clever beads are virtually undetectable, all you will feel of them is their lovely weight. The blanket is made from soft quilted microfibre for extra huggable comfort. The weighted blanket should be approximately 10% of the user\'s body weight. Our weighted blanket is not recommended for use by persons under the age or 18 years old, the elderly, pregnant women, anyone suffering from respiratory disorders including asthma or anyone with circulatory issues including diabetes. Please consult a medical professional if you have any medical related concerns about this product.
