Cognitive support technology – Weighted products

Abilia's weighted products for sensory integration can help people who experience, for example, anxiety, motor anxiety or insomnia to better cope with everyday life. Sleeping with a weighted blanket at night, or using a weighted vest or weighted comforter during the day, helps induce calmness and increased focus, both through pressure from the weight and through stimulation of senses such as touch and balance. A good night’s sleep and increased ability to focus contribute to greater cognitive capacity during the day, and the weighted products are used at home, at school, at work, and in nursing homes.
