How do weighted blankets help children with anxiety?

Studies have shown that weighted blankets can provide a deep-pressure touch that releases serotonin, which helps reduce levels of stress and anxiety. Some scientists believe that children who have autism, ADHD and anxiety struggle with the production of natural serotonin. The weight gives the feeling of a warm comforting hug!

For children struggling with falling asleep and staying asleep, Hefty Petz, provides a sense of security by mimicking a constant hug. This snuggly pressure makes your child feel safe by decreasing the stress hormone cortisol and increasing melatonin and serotonin levels for quality sleep.

The outer layer is made of a super soft microfiber fabric and quilted pods are stuffed with polyester fill and polyethene beads. Beads are safely sewn into double pockets inside the blankets.

How do I wash my new blanket?

Wash your Hefty Petz blanket in cold water with gentle detergent (no chlorine bleach or fabric softener) on delicate mode. Hang dry or tumble dry on low to maintain maximum quality and longevity of the blanket.

How does the blanket’s weight stay evenly distributed?

The beads are evenly distributed throughout the blanket since they are sewn in many little pockets. Each pocket holds the same amount of beads. Blankets are made with a beautiful quilted underside that keeps beads from all moving to one side.
