Weighted blanket

In short, a weighted blanket calms your nervous system. This relates to the two modes of your nervous system: ‘flight or fight’ or ‘rest and digest’. In a stressful situation, your body automatically switches to the ‘flight and fight’ mode. This keeps you alert and able to make quick decisions. In the ‘rest and digest’ mode, you recover and relax. Do you have a busy and stressful life? Then it is difficult for your body to switch to the ‘rest and digest’ mode. This can cause anxiety, stress, restlessness and sleeplessness. A Novaline weighted blanket applies Deep Pressure Stimulation (DPS) to encourage your body to switch to the ‘rest and digest’ mode. This helps you relax and fall asleep peacefully.

A weighted blanket helps you fall asleep faster, sleep longer and more deeply. As a result, you wake up refreshed, start your day feeling fresh, and can concentrate better. Many people use a weighted blanket for sleep problems, stress, anxiety or sensory processing disorders such as ADHD or autism.

Using a weighted blanket is simple: crawl under it and relax. The biggest step is ordering the blanket. That’s why we make buying a weighted blanket as easy as possible for you. We send the blanket to you free of charge, and you may try it for no less than 100 days. Don’t like it? Then you can return the blanket and get your money back.

Our weighted blankets contain very small glass sand beads, evenly distributed through a diamond pattern. Thanks to this hypoallergenic filling, you won’t suffer from allergies. Additionally, the filling makes no noise and is breathable for good ventilation. This way, you can use the weighted blanket all year round without it becoming too warm.

The best way to sleep under a weighted blanket is to let the blanket rest directly on your body, without an extra normal duvet in between. This way you experience the pressure and calming effect optimally. In summer, you can use the weighted blanket without an extra duvet, while in winter you can optionally place a light duvet on top for extra warmth. Always choose a weight that fits your body weight (about 10%) so the blanket feels comfortable and not too heavy.

How long you should use a weighted blanket varies per person. Some people notice the effects after the first night. Others only after a week. There are also people for whom it works counterproductively the first nights. This may be because your body needs to get used to the weight, which you did not have before. Because sleep is unique for everyone, at Novaline we want to give you every chance to experience the effects of a weighted blanket. Our advice: try it for at least 2 weeks. To avoid pressure, we offer everyone 100 nights of trial sleep.
