Benefits of Baloo weighted blankets

Baloo weighted blankets are designed to apply a gentle, even pressure to the body, like a gentle hug. Snuggling under a weighted blanket has a natural calming effect that has been shown to soothe the nervous system, help alleviate stress and anxiety, and increase serotonin production. In addition to helping you feel calmer and more relaxed, it can also help you to fall asleep faster, sleep more deeply, and slip into your REM cycle faster. 

These effects have been studied and published in the journal Occupational Therapy in Mental Health, the Journal of Complementary Medicine, and several others.
