I create weighted blankets for individuals with a diagnosed with but not limited to Autism, Asperger's Syndrome, ADHD, ADD, PDD-NOS, Sensory Integration or Processing Disorder, fibromyalgia, bi-polar, restless leg syndrom anxiety discorder, fetal alcohol syndrome, insomnia, brain injuries, or hyperactive. Children who are easily distracted, hyperactive and lacking in concentration respond positively to the additional weight a weighted blanket or vest can provide. Many therapists working with children with special needs are recommending the use of weighted products. Weighted Love blankets have been a blessing to families that have adopted children internationally and within the United States. They have helped with giving the children a sense of security and love. They also help any sensory needs they might have. Many parents have shared that it helps their newest family member sleep at night and during nap time. In addition, many individuals use weighted blankets because they just have trouble sleeping and have found the blankets to be an extremely helpful, natural drug free sleep aid. Please consult a physician or therapist prior to using a weighted blanket.
