A key benefit of using the Endy Weighted Blanket is the positive effects of deep pressure therapy (DPT). Like a warm hug or a massage, deep pressure therapy induces calm and relaxation through firm but gentle pressure that relaxes the nervous system, making it easier to unwind and fall into a deep, restful sleep. Deep pressure therapy is also known for:
- • Increasing serotonin levels, to regulate sleep and relaxation
- • Increasing melatonin levels, to help you fall asleep at the right time
- • Decreasing cortisol, to relieve stress and tension
