What are Weighted Products?

Weighted products are items that have added weight to them, typically through the use of materials such as glass beads or plastic pellets. They come in various forms, including weighted blankets, weighted vests, and weighted pillows, among others.

How do Weighted Products Work?

The idea behind weighted products is based on Deep Touch Pressure (DTP), a type of therapy that uses gentle pressure to stimulate the release of serotonin and dopamine, the hormones that promote feelings of calm and relaxation. The pressure from the weighted product helps trigger the release of these hormones, which can help reduce anxiety, stress, and promote relaxation.

Benefits of Using Weighted Products

Reduces Anxiety and Stress

Weighted products can help reduce anxiety and stress by providing a calming effect on the nervous system. The gentle pressure from the product helps release serotonin and dopamine, which can promote feelings of relaxation and calmness.

Promotes Better Sleep

Weighted products can improve sleep quality by helping you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. The pressure from the product can provide a sense of security, similar to the feeling of being hugged, which can promote deeper and more restful sleep.

Helps with Sensory Processing Disorders

Weighted products can be beneficial for individuals with sensory processing disorders, such as autism or ADHD. The pressure from the product can help regulate the sensory input, which can reduce sensory overload and improve focus and attention.

Provides Comfort and Relaxation

Weighted products can provide a sense of comfort and relaxation, making them ideal for use while watching TV or reading a book. They can also be used as a tool for meditation or mindfulness practices.

Improves Posture and Stability

Weighted products, such as weighted vests, can help improve posture and stability by adding resistance to movements. This can help strengthen muscles and improve balance.

Choosing the Right Weighted Product

When choosing a weighted product, it's essential to consider your specific needs and preferences. For example, if you're looking for a product to help with sleep, a weighted blanket may be a better option than a weighted vest. It's also essential to choose a product that is appropriate for your body weight and size to ensure maximum effectiveness.

Important Information on weighted products:

-Weighted blankets should always be used with adult supervision.
-Always consult with an Occupational Therapist or health professional before using a weighted blanket or other weighted product. Weighted products should be used with suitable supervision at all time.
-They are not suitable for very young children.
-Use the correct weight of the product, we would suggest that a weighted blanket, does not exceed 10% of the user's body weight. This weight recommendation is however only a guide, please consult an Occupational Therapist or Health Professional.
-The person using the weighted product should be able to remove it at all times; this is essential to prevent them from becoming uncomfortable or overheated. Do not roll someone up in a weighted blanket under any circumstances.
-Weighted products are not suitable for people with certain conditions such as epilepsy, heart conditions, breathing difficulties or circulatory problems.
-The user should not be left under a weighted blanket overnight as they can become overheated and uncomfortable. They are best used as an aid to relax a person before bed and while they get to sleep. Ideally, they should then be removed.

In Conclusion

Weighted products have numerous benefits for both physical and mental health. They can help reduce anxiety and stress, promote better sleep, and improve focus and attention in individuals with sensory processing disorders. When choosing a weighted product, consider your specific needs and preferences, and choose a product that is appropriate for your body weight and size. With a weighted product, you can enjoy a deeper sense of relaxation and improved overall well-being.
