weighted blanket single person

A weighted blanket is known by many names among consumers: weighted blanket, weighted cover, or weighted quilt. A weighted blanket is a blanket that - as the name suggests - is weighted with special glass beads. These glass beads provide a subtle pressure, scientifically called 'Deep Pressure Stimulation'. This pressure helps you have a restful night and feel more energized during the day. Want to know exactly how a single weighted blanket works? Then read on quickly.

Our users also refer to our single-person weighted blankets as a subtle hug. Not surprising, as the weighted blankets apply pressure to your body that causes it to switch from the so-called ‘fight or flight’ mode to the ‘rest and digest’ mode.

In this ‘rest and digest’ mode, which occurs in the parasympathetic nervous system, your body produces more happiness hormone (serotonin). This allows you to relax better and feel safe, which in turn leads to a controlled flow of thoughts and less stress. When you produce more happiness hormones, you also naturally produce more sleep hormones (melatonin), making it easier for you to fall asleep.

Scientific studies indicate that a weighted blanket for one person helps you relax more easily, fall asleep faster, sleep deeper, and wake up refreshed.

One person benefits more from a weighted blanket than another. Our single-person weighted blankets are specially developed for people with complaints, such as;

• Sleep problems
• Stress
• Autism
• Restless legs (RLS)
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
• High sensitivity (HSP)

We believe in the positive effects of a single weighted blanket. But as described, some people simply benefit more from the weighted blanket than others. Because we want you to experience the effects as well, we always offer a 100-day trial sleep. This way you can try our weighted blanket for free. During this trial period, you can gradually get used to the blanket and experience the effects yourself. After the trial period, more than 90% of our customers still sleep under our single weighted blanket.

Using a weighted blanket is very easy. You can use it like a 'normal' blanket. For the best results, let the single weighted blanket rest directly on your body. This way, you experience the pressure best. Your 'regular' duvet is therefore no longer needed.

In the winter, you can also place the single weighted blanket on your current duvet. This provides more warmth. Even though there is an extra duvet in between now, as long as the weight rests on the body, you will notice the effects.
