These weighted lap bags are used in many home, clinical, school and work environments for those living with (but not limited to): Sensory Processing Disorder, Autism, ADHD, ADD, Anxiety, Restless Leg Syndrome and some mental health issues. They can have a huge impact on those who benefit from deep pressure, and are especially helpful in assisting the user to regulate their sensory input when it is sleep time, or when they may be demonstrating behaviour leading to a meltdown. The weighted lap bag can provide Deep Pressure Touch Stimulation (DPTS) for the user and the impact it can have is amazing!
Deep Pressure Touch Stimulation (DPTS) can stimulate the release of serotonin in the brain, in turn helping children and adults to be calm, relaxed, concentrate on a task and moderate their sensory input. Weighted Lap Bags may also be used as part of a 'Sensory Diet' as prescribed by an Occupational Therapist at times for the child to self regulate their sensory input if they are over stimulated and need to calm down before attempting a task which requires focus (i.e: coming in from outside, running in the playground to sitting at a table and chair listening quietly to the teacher).
They are filled with your choice of non-toxic Poly Pellets (the same that are used in some teddy bears and soft toys) or Stainless Steel pellets. The pellets are separated into sections to ensure balanced weight distribution. The Sensory Matters weighted lap bags are designed by an Occupational Therapist and will enable the lap bag to ‘mould’ around the user to the shape of their body to maximise the deep pressure sensory input.
What are pros and cons of Poly Pellets and Stainless Steel?
Although both are machine washable, Poly Pellets are a durable, non-toxic plastic, and are a cheaper yet bulkier material. Stainless Steel is heavier by volume, so the product conforms closer to the body shape it is placed upon, however they are a little more expensive.
Weighted blankets may help to improve mood and sleep by using deep pressure stimulation. The gentle pressure of weight across the body may provide relaxation, comfort, and ease anxiety and stress so you can wake up feeling well-rested.
Designed with sewn in glass beads, this blanket provides an instant sense of calmness and security. Quilted box design allows glass beads to be distributed evenly throughout the blanket.

The science behind better sleep lies with a Giselle Bedding Weighted Blanket. It uses the therapeutic power of Deep Touch Pressure Simulation (DTPS) to stimulate pressure points throughout the body, thereby contributing to enhanced sleep, mood and relaxation. Our weighted blanket is engineered to be between 8% and 15% of your body weight to relax the nervous system by simulating the feeling of being hugged or held. This boosts serotonin and melatonin levels and decreases cortisol levels improving your heart rate and blood pressure. In short, you get healthier sleep and awake feeling refershed and re-invigorated. Made of 100% microfibre for both sides, the weighted blanket is filled with polyester and glass beads to create the right amount of pressure for a soothing hugging sensation. The weighted blanket is also close-fitting and conforms to your body shape and adapts to any sleeping posture easily. Not least, its excellent leak-proof stitching and 5-layer comfort ensures that the weighted blanket is ever so durable and comfortable with every use. The weighted blanket is machine washable for total convenience.

Weighted products may be suggested by an Occupational Therapist as part of a sensory diet to assist with sensory regulation to focus on a task, relaxation and to calm down ready to sleep. Weighted Animals are filled with Poly Pellets or a mixture of Poly/Stainless Steel pellets and this design has a removable and secure double stitched/double-layered weighted insert, which can be machine washed.
Alongside the benefit of weight, there is also the extra sensory input of the lusciously soft fabric as well as the fact that they don't look 'clinical'... they are just regular looking soft toys.
These gorgeous Weighted Animals can be very helpful in the classroom/kinder or child care facilities and are used regularly by those with SPD, ASD, ADHD, and anxiety. They are seriously soooo soft and loveable!
