. Swaddled babies, massages and cuddles, the gentle, even pressure of slipping into a warm bath, or simply putting an arm around someone in distress–we can find examples of deep pressure stimulation everywhere.Even our pets seek belly rubs!BlanQuil® harnesses deep touch stimulation and provides it on demand to promote soothing calm and relaxation while reducing stress and anxiety—but that’s not all! Studies have shown that using a weighted blanket while you sleep reduces movement in the night, boosting time in your deep, rejuvenating sleep cycles. Deep touch stimulation, or deep pressure therapy, is that soothing feeling when we are hugged, cuddled, or held by a loved one.
