Our weighted blankets are made from 100% cotton material and are designed using a box stitching technique. This helps spread the hypoallergenic beads into smaller compartments for more even weight distribution. The soft blanket is known for providing deep touch pressure stimulation (DTPS). DTPS is a calming and tranquil feeling that increases the release of serotonin, the chemical in the brain that is associated with relaxation. Youll appreciate the timeless look of this soft bedding just as much as its machine-washable construction, which makes it easy for users to keep thing looking as good as new.
