Weighted Blankets are typically used to reduce the symptoms of conditions such as autism (ASD) and sensory processing disorders (SPD). They are now widely used for other reasons such as reducing stress and anxiety, PTSD, panic attacks and reduce meltdowns as well as helping you and your child get a good night’s sleep.

The weight is provided by plastic beads sewn into small individual cells within the durable polycotton inner lining for additional strength and comfort. This design allows the user to place the blanket over themselves and feel their body being cocooned by the beads for a deep pressure calming effect.

Dimensions:

(L) 138cm x (W) 106cm

Important:

It is recommended that the Weighted Blanket should not exceed 10% of the user's bodyweight. Please use our Weight Guideline for advice on choosing the correct weight for you. We also recommend that you consult with an Occupational Therapist on weight.
Please note machine washing may affect the fire retardancy of the material.

Sleeping in his own bed for the first time in a year.
"So far so good! My son is getting used to it and has been sleeping in his own bed for the first time in a year. He still occasionally asks to come with us but on the whole I feel it is working and though his sleep is still erratic, there is vast improvement and I am so grateful to Sensory Direct for that. I have recommended the blanket to other parents and ask them to buy from you. Although there might be cheaper versions, it doesn't include the services you offer when buying and after.

Thank you, your product and service has helped a lot."

Lifesaver!
"Wow the difference this has made. My little one is 4 years old and diagnosed with autism, global developmental delay and is non verbal. She requires high levels of deep pressure to get calm and sleep had always been one of the bigger issues, both with settling at night and then again with waking up frequently during the night and finding it hard to settle again.

This is where this weighted blanket has been a lifesaver.

She settles to bed between 8-9pm and sleeps through without waking until about 5ish most nights now. Obviously we have had bad nights in between but only a few instead of every night, as a result she is much calmer and happier during the day and we see less frustration. I could not recommend this highly enough as it’s made so much difference to our lives and made my girl happier plus the blanket looks amazing too."

A positive difference within the first week
"I bought a weighted blanket for my three year old son, and I just want to say that it has been magic what that blanket has done for him & us. He had big problems with finding rest during the days and nights. He had trouble in other things too but after sleeping with a Sensory Weighted Blanket there was a positive difference within the first week.

My son is now calmer than before, he talks better, he is more persistent when he is playing, eating and reading compared to what he was like before.

I am extremely satisfied with your weighted blanket!"

Our Story

When my son was born with autism, my world changed and Sensory Direct was born

Ethan had been prescribed different forms of medication, and although they helped a little, I didn’t want to become reliant upon them, so Ethan’s Paediatric Consultant suggested a Weighted Blanket. I remember hearing this and thinking ‘what on earth is a Weighted Blanket’? At this stage I was blissfully unaware of how life changing that Weighted Blanket would become.

We strongly believe in our products and ensure that the same love and care that went into making my son’s first Weighted Blanket goes into every handmade product we produce here in Worcester. We pride ourselves on our Customer Service and we will do our utmost to find you a solution that works.
