The use of a weighted blanket is to increase deep pressure input to the body, which in turn facilities the release of chemicals from the brain which calm and relax you.
Deep pressure input causes Dopamine and Serotonin to be released from the brain to help calm the nervous system.
By having a good balance of serotonin in the brain, this can help regulate all other brain chemistry and keep a neutral and relaxed learning state.
A weighted blanket however should never be used as a restraint, should never be used to wrap the client or child up in, and should never cover the client/child's face
