The Serenity Blanket FAQs

How does a weighted blanket work?

A weighted blanket relies on the principles of deep pressure stimulation for its therapeutic effects. Basically, the added weight triggers a host of beneficial changes in the body, including increased serotonin and melatonin production, decreased cortisol production, as well as an increased sense of calmness and relaxation, among others.

How do I choose the weight of my blanket?

Occupational therapists recommend getting a blanket that’s 10 to 15% of your body weight. However, if you’re not used to sleeping with heavy blankets, we recommend a lighter version to get started.

 

How big is the blanket?

Our adult blanket is 198 cm x 122 cm (48” x 78”) Our Queen/King blanket is 198cm x 122cm (85” x 78”) The kids’ version is 104 x 152cm

How do I ensure even weight distribution?

If you have a feeling that your blanket is bunched up in the middle, make sure that the inner ties are secured to the cover. 

Is a weighted blanket recommended for babies and toddlers?

We have a kids blanket ideal for children however for safety reasons we don’t recommend any of our blankets for toddlers under 2 years of age. When giving your child a weighted blanket make sure that your child can lift the blanket safely before putting them to bed with it.

Is the Serenity Blanket appropriate for warm weather?

It can be. We have worked for months to design a blanket that can be used throughout the year. 

Is the blanket machine-washable?

Yes, both the cover and the inner blanket are machine-washable. We recommend separating them and washing on a gentle cycle in tepid or warm water. Use only mild detergents and don’t use fabric softeners.

SAFETY - Please do not use the blanket near an open flame. Our blankets are not suitable for children under 2 years of age. If any part of the blanket rips or begins leaking, please dispose of it immediately. Do not consume the beads. We recommend parent supervision when a child is using the blanket.
