Why this helps: proprioceptive (deep pressure) input

Weighted blankets deliver even pressure that some adults find calming and organizing. If you have mobility, breathing, or circulation concerns, review the Safety & Sizing notes first. You can also explore sleep sound options in our White Noise Machines guide if sound helps you drift off.

How to choose

  • Weight: start near ~10% of your body weight; adjust for comfort.
  • Heat: hot sleepers → bamboo/cotton knit; cold sleepers → minky/flannel covers.
  • Size: pick a throw/twin-width for one person; avoid overhang.

If you have medical conditions (breathing, circulation, mobility), review safety with a clinician first. See the Safety & Sizing guide and return to the Home & Daily Living hub for more sleep strategies.
