Give Heart
Profile : When you’re stressed, your heart beats too quickly. The gentle pressure on your body provided by a weighted blanket can also help to calm you by activating your parasympathetic nervous system, which lowers your heart rate when you’re stressed. A weighted blanket uses “pressure therapy”, a calm-inducing amount of pressure on your entire body, similar to the feeling of being hugged, swaddled, stroked, or held. The right size and weight of a weighted blanket depend on the person’s needs. These blankets are therapeutic blankets that weigh between 5 and 50 pounds. The pressure from the extra weight mimics a therapeutic technique called deep pressure stimulation. Although we need more research on this topic, these blankets showed positive results so far. We are pointing out some conditions below in which a person may get some benefits by using these blankets. Improve Sleep Quality Several factors can cause sleep disorders. Weighted blankets can help in some simple ways. The pressure from weighted blankets prepares your body for rest by calming your heart rate and breathing, they help your body to calm down enough to get the sleep it needs so you can wake up feeling refreshed. Reduction in Anxiety symptoms In this Disease, your heart rate increases and your breathing gets faster, which is a result of your body preparing for stress. Deep pressure stimulation can help reduce autonomic arousal. The pressure of weighted blankets puts your autonomic nervous system into “rest” mode, reducing some symptoms of anxiety, such as a quickened heart rate or breathing. This can provide an overall sense of calm. Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) The individual with ASD cannot properly interact with other people. The pressure from the weighted blankets can relieve stress for people with ASD and improve their ability to focus on the task at hand. It can also make them feel as if they’re being rewarded. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) Weighted blankets showed a positive impact on falling asleep, sleeping the whole night, and relaxing during the day. The weighted blankets keep children from becoming distracted by other sensory stimuli, such as sounds, coming from their surroundings. This can help them improve their attention, remain on task, stay in their seats, and fidget less. Findings indicate that a weighted blanket improved morning/evening routine, however, this research area needs further investigation using both subjective and objective parameters. RISKS There are very few risks to using a weighted blanket. However, according to manufacturers, these shouldn’t be used for toddlers under 2 years old, as it may increase the risk of suffocation. Always consult your pediatrician before trying a weighted blanket. A weighted blanket may also be unsuitable for people with certain conditions, including: • obstructive sleep apnea, which causes disrupted breathing during sleep • asthma, which can cause difficulty breathing at night • claustrophobia, in which the tightness of a weighted blanket may trigger CONCLUSION Weighted blankets have shown positive results for several conditions, including autism, ADHD, and anxiety. They can help calm a restless body, reduce feelings of anxiety, and improve sleep troubles. To select that “just right” blanket, make sure to pick one that’s about 10 percent of your body weight.
