Weighted Blankets provide a calming effect for those with special needs, anxiety, and/or difficulty falling asleep. They are also useful in stressful situations, such as when patients are in the hospital undergoing an MRI. The Adjustable Weighted Blanket will provide gentle pressure similar to swaddling or a loving hug. Occupational Therapists recommend weights around 10% of the individual's body weight. The Skil-Care blanket is designed to be adjustable. Multiple pockets allow the parent, caregiver, or user the choice of how much weight to apply and where to apply it. The weights can be easily moved throughout the blanket for proper weight distribution. The blanket is sold without gel weights and is offered in two sizes: 56” L x 36” W (36 Pockets) or 63” L x 42” W (49 Pockets). The gel weights are sold separately. If necessary, multiple gel weights can be placed in each pocket.
