Incentive
This weighted blanket can help reduce restlessness, anxiety, and overstimulation, making it particularly beneficial in environments such as sensory rooms and Snoezel rooms, where sensory stimulation and relaxation are essential. In schools, institutions, and care homes, the blanket can be an invaluable aid in helping the body find balance. Sally can be used in multiple ways — lying on the back with it placed over the stomach, chest, or legs, or lying on the side where the blanket wraps around the body. This makes Sally a versatile blanket that adapts to different needs and preferences.

What does the weight in Sally do to the body?
Weighted blankets like Sally are particularly beneficial for people with sensory challenges, as they provide a calming effect that helps promote relaxation and increased body awareness. The weight also stimulates the proprioceptive sense and releases oxytocin, the body’s natural stress-relieving hormone.

Ease of use
Sally is made from hospital-grade PU material, making it highly resistant to strong cleaning agents such as alcohol — an essential feature in professional environments where hygiene is crucial. Sally is an ideal choice when seeking a weighted blanket to promote calm and well-being. We are always happy to provide advice on its use and recommend consulting professional staff regarding its application for individual users. The blanket is designed as a short version, serving as an alternative to a weighted duvet. It is easy for staff to handle and does not cause a feeling of claustrophobia for those using it. The blanket should only be used during daytime rest periods.

Customer testimonials:
Resident A has physical and intellectual disabilities with severe epilepsy and uses a wheelchair. At times, A experiences significant motor challenges and has difficulty relaxing the body. The weighted blanket has helped A to relax and find calmness in the body.
A has benefited from the blanket during rest periods while lying in bed. An effect has been observed shortly after the blanket is placed on resident A.
A has no verbal language, and it has therefore not been possible for A to express the effect personally. A’s caregivers have instead observed A’s nonverbal communication and body language, focusing on how A relaxes and rests. The experience with the weighted blanket has been positive, and it will continue to be used.
