How Does the Plantule Weighted Blanket Work? The Importance of a Strong, Healthy Hug

By covering ourselves with a blanket, the body receives a signal, which then transmits to the nervous system that it's time to switch to relaxation mode. Through this mechanical process, the blanket induces a state of relaxation and regeneration throughout the body. Consequently, it allows us to fall asleep faster and feel better upon waking.

The therapeutic weight of the blanket is distributed evenly, and the pressure stimulates deep sensation and affects the autonomic nervous system – it helps activate the parasympathetic (inhibitory) system, which is responsible for a state of rest and relaxation, and calms the sympathetic (stimulatory) system. – responsible for the mobilization of the body.

The deep pressure of a duvet against the body can increase levels of melatonin (the sleep hormone) and serotonin (the happiness hormone), a neurotransmitter responsible for the sleep process and mood control, among other things. It can also help lower blood pressure, calm heart rate, and breathing, preparing the body for rest.
