Amazing Options For Treating Asperger's Syndrome

Weighted Blanket Therapy

AboutKidsHealth

Weighted blanket therapy is the utilization of a special blanket to alleviate the symptoms of Asperger's syndrome. These special blankets are made up of polypropylene pellets, which add weight to the body. The weighted blanket applies gentle pressure on the body and helps to relax it, and when the body is relaxed, it decreases feelings of anxiety and stress.

Individuals with Asperger's syndrome often feel anxious and nervous. When an individual with this condition puts on a weighted blanket, it produces a calming effect and enhances levels of serotonin in the body. There are, however, a few things to consider when purchasing weighted blankets. Parents should look for a blanket made with strong and good quality fabric, and make sure the blanket is breathable and machine washable. Ideally, they should pick a blank made of one hundred percent pure polypropylene pellets.
