Our recommendation is to select a weight that is around 8-12%+ of your bodyweight, which usually adheres to the below:
10 lbs (Bodyweight: Less than 125 lbs 15 lbs (Bodyweight: Between 125-200 lbs) 20 lbs (Bodyweight: Over 200lbs)
If you are in between sizes, we recommend selecting the lower of the two weights.
The Helix Weighted Blanket features a quilted blanket filled with interior fine-grade glass beads that add evenly distributed weight. The outer cover is made from soft fleece and microfiber sheared fabric to be cozy to the touch.
Weighted blankets have been used in medical communities and by occupational therapists for years to help reduce stress and promote restfulness. Now those same health benefits are available to everyone.
Weighted blankets provide pressure on your body that have been shown to give you benefits, including:
Helps Alleviate Anxiety & Stress
Deep pressure stimulation has been found to relax, calm, and minimize anxiety through increases in serotonin and melatonin levels.
Promotes Restful Sleep
Reduced stress levels related to deep pressure stimulation from a weighted blanket have been linked to improved sleep quality.

The feeling of a “traffic jam” in your brain, sensory processing disorder occurs in adults but is especially troublesome for children.
