The even distribution of weight in our Hush blanket means it feels like a gentle, comforting hug, all night long. Mimicking a therapeutic technique called Deep Pressure Stimulation (DPS), this gentle pressure relaxes the nervous system. It reduces cortisol (stress hormone) while increasing serotonin (happy hormone) and melatonin (sleepy hormone). End result: it helps children fall asleep faster, and sleep more deeply and peacefully. Helos with stress and anxiety, attention disorder, and sensory disorders
