Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cooling weighted blanket?
A cooling weighted blanket combines the deep pressure therapy of a traditional weighted blanket with breathable cooling fabric. Our bamboo fiber construction keeps you at the perfect temperature while delivering the calming benefits of gentle pressure therapy.
How does a weighted blanket help with sleep and anxiety?
Weighted blankets use deep pressure stimulation — similar to the feeling of being hugged. This activates your parasympathetic nervous system, reducing cortisol levels and increasing serotonin and melatonin production. The result is a naturally calmer, more relaxed state perfect for sleep.
What weight should I choose?
We recommend choosing a blanket that is approximately 10% of your body weight for the best therapeutic effect:
90x100cm — Kids and small frames
100x120cm — Kids and teens
100x150cm — Single sleepers and lap use
150x200cm — Adult single sleepers (most popular)
180x200cm — Adults and couples
200x230cm — Queen and King beds
Is a cooling weighted blanket suitable for hot sleepers?
Absolutely — that’s exactly who we designed it for. Our 100% bamboo fiber fabric is naturally breathable and temperature regulating, making it perfect for hot sleepers, night sweat sufferers and anyone in a warm climate.
