Weighted blankets contain a loaded material, such as glass beads, that are sewn onto a grid and designed to distribute the weight evenly across the entire body.
This weighted blanket has a recommended weight according to the weight of the person who will be using it.
(It is said that the weight of about 7~12% of body weight is optimal)
Applying moderate pressure to the body is said to be an effective means of relaxing the nerves.
Studies have suggested that it can reduce stress and anxiety, as well as help with autism spectrum disorder and traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
It is said that using slightly heavier bedding secretes more serotonin, a sleep hormone, and also has the effect of reducing cortisol, a stress substance.
The use of weighted blankets began around 1990 and has been used in healthcare facilities treating people with ADHD and autism.
There are a lot of scientific research reports on it.
In sleep experiments of people with insomnia
