A good night’s sleep ensues that you wake up refreshed and ready for the new day. The quality of sleep you enjoy is strongly affected by your choice of bedding and bed linen. More and more people are choosing to buy a bamboo weighted blanket for themselves and their loved ones.
Anti Bacterial, Hypoallergenic and More
Since you come in close contact with your bedding for several hours it is important that the material is hygienic and does not encourage the growth of microorganisms. Bamboo is naturally anti bacterial and also hypoallergenic. This makes it an ideal choice for people who suffer from allergies. Furthermore, the material is anti static, which means it does not support the build up of static electricity like synthetic fibers often do.
An Effective Thermal Regulator
Bamboo is cool and smooth to touch. It is an excellent thermal insulator. It does not trap heat but is a great barrier between cool and warm air. And this is why you can use a bamboo weighted blanket in the summer and the winter. It keeps you cool on those warm days and nights, and cozy through the cold ones.
A Gentle Hug
The scientific principle behind the use of a weighted blanket is that it offers the human body deep touch pressure. It is kind of like receiving a gentle full body hug. This pressure soothes the sympathetic nervous system which is responsible for the body’s fight or flight reaction to stress. When the sympathetic nervous system is over stimulated for long periods people tend to feel anxious and may even feel depressed.
The deep touch pressure of a weighted blanket stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system. And this in turn reduces the production of stress hormones and leads to an increase in happy hormones like dopamine and serotonin in the body.
When you invest in a weighted blanket made with organic bamboo you gift yourself a comfortable and safe environment to sleep in. The fiber is strong and durable and the blanket will give you service for years to come. The blanket has small pockets in which the tiny beads are stored. They will not disturb your sleep in any way.
You may also wish to buy a bamboo cover for the blanket. Both, the blanket and the cover are easy to clean and can be machine washed. If you are buying a weighted bamboo blanket for a child, consider a product range that uses 100% bamboo fiber and is specially designed for children.
