Silentnight Wellbeing Weighted Blanket - 6.8kg

<p><strong>Introducing calm, relaxation and a great big hug, all wrapped up in one comfortable blanket. The Silentnight Wellbeing Weighted Blanket is natural sleep therapy at its best.</strong></p> <p><strong>Stress Less, Sleep Well, Wake Up Happy</strong></p> <p>If your mind races at night, or if your legs feel restless, a weighted blanket could be the answer. A weighted blanket helps to foster a sense of stillness and calm, in the same way tight swaddling helps new-born babies feel snug and secure so they can doze off more quickly.</p> <p>By applying gentle pressure all over your body, the blanket feels a little like a comforting hug, all night long - helping your body and brain to switch off for the night. So it's no wonder that weighted blankets have been shown to ease muscle tension, reduce stress hormones (cortisol), and increase the release of happy hormones (serotonin and melatonin), for better, deeper sleep all round.</p> <p><strong>Reassuringly Cosy and Safe</strong></p> <p>The blanket is filled with tiny glass beads that offer comforting pressure to your body. These clever beads are virtually undetectable and padded; all you will feel is their comforting weight as they mould to your body shape. The blanket is made from soft quilted microfibre for extra huggable comfort and breathability to help you maintain that just-right temperature. The blanket is also hypoallergenic and machine washable to help manage any allergies as you sleep and keep your sleeping space fresh and clean.</p> <p><strong>Specifications &amp; Guidance</strong></p> <p>Blanket weight - 6.8 kg<br /> Blanket dimensions - 150 cm x 200 cm</p> <p><em>Please note - We do not recommend using this product if you are under 18 years of age, or if you are pregnant, or if you suffer from respiratory disorders, such as asthma or sleep apnoea or any circulatory disorders including type 2 diabetes.
