Weighted blankets offer deep touch pressure simulation, which provides the sensation of being hugged. Their use has been shown to increase serotonin and melatonin levels, while decreasing cortisol, in order to promote relaxation and groundedness in those with insomnia, anxiety, restlessness, ADD/ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, and other related issues. It can be used several ways: to cover the body while sleeping, wrapped around shoulders while sitting, or laid across the lap or legs.
