Why should you consider getting a weighted blanket? 

It's a personal choice, but weighted blankets have been shown to offer many health benefits. The added weight helps the body relax more quickly, and it can aid in reducing stress and anxiety by calming the nervous system.

Additionally, weighted blankets can be beneficial for individuals with sensory dysregulation, ADHD, and other nervous disorders. Many people find weighted therapy to be helpful, but it's essential to choose the right size and weight for your needs.

QUICK ORDER GUIDE

BACKING FABRICS:

Choose from the following options:
- Plain Cotton: 240gsm, durable 100% cotton. Ideal for hot sleepers and suitable for year-round use.

All our fabrics are certified and suitable for all ages.

WEIGHTING FILLERS:
Sensory Owl is the only company offering different weighting fillers, as we tailor our blankets for each individual order. We offer two options:
- Glass granules: Provide a smooth and fine texture, similar to the feel of sand.
- Natural Gravel: Perfect for eco-conscious individuals and those seeking tactile stimulation. Offers a lightly textured feel.
Our fillings are certified and free from toxins.

SIZE:
Choosing the right size is a personal decision, but keep in mind that the larger the blanket, the heavier it needs to be.
For example, if a child needs a 100x150cm, 2.5kg blanket, then a 135x200cm blanket would need to weigh 4.5kg to provide the same pressure. Consider the weight that comes into contact with the body, not the entire surface covering the mattress.

ZIPPY:
We offer a version of the blanket with a zipper in the middle, perfect for couples.

WEIGHT:
The weight of the blanket is a personal decision, based on your needs and the specific disorder you aim to regulate, along with the blanket size. The general rule is to aim for a weight that is 10% of the user's body weight, suitable for milder neurological disorders or first-time users of weighted blankets.

To determine the weight:
1. Consider the reasons for your purchase. If you have a strong need for deep pressure, opt for 12-15% of your body weight.
2. Choose the desired size, keeping in mind that larger blankets require more weight. For instance, a child weighing 20kg and 140cm tall would need a 100x150cm blanket weighing 2.5kg. A child with the same measurements but with a sensory disorder might need 3-5kg, depending on the need for deep pressure, anxiety level, and hyperactivity.

3. Please provide your height, weight, and reason for purchase in the comment section of the order. With 7 years of experience in weighted therapy, we work alongside professionals to help parents and carers.

We hope these suggestions help you determine the right weight and size ratio for your weighted blanket:

WASHING INSTRUCTION:

All our blankets are machine washable. Ensure the blanket does not exceed the washload. Use a small amount of liquid, spin on low, and dry flat. Please keep the paper label for washing instructions.
