Studies suggest that weighted blankets provide soothing comfort for those dealing with stress, anxiety or sensory disorders. Mimicking the feeling of being hugged or held, weighted blankets are used to relax the body and provide excellent sleep. Our 20lb weighted blanket is recommended for adults and for those looking for higher pressure. Our weighted blanket is made with breathable 100% cotton. A filling of sand-like beads helps maintain a perfect temperature while adding just the right amount of weight.
