Premium Cotton Sensory Weighted Wrap
Use GRAVITY to help calm!
Weighted Blankets, Pads, Wraps & Aprons are an effective and drug-free aid in helping to calm the mind and relax those living with Anxiety Disorders (ADD / ADHD / PTSD), Autism (ASD), Tourette's syndrome (GTS), Restless Leg Syndrome, Menopause, Alzheimer's and for those who benefit from compression or weighted therapy. By covering the body for sleep, wrapping shoulders while sitting or by folding the blankets and lap pads across laps or legs, weighted therapy products apply comforting pressure where it's most beneficial. Our super-soft, 100% cotton-fabric weighted wraps are a unique product that can provide relief, comfort and can help supplement sensory disorder therapy treatments. Weighted wraps are ideal for the following conditions:

Even though our weighted wraps can keep you warm, they are smaller than a weighted blanket and meant to be used on the shoulders / chest / lap or legs. Enjoy the benefits of weighted sensory therapy year round - or combine with your favorite throw for warmth!
Weighted Wraps for Alzheimer's, dementia and brain related conditions
Most common in people over 65 years old, dementia can cause mood swings, confusion and stress. Caregivers can use weight therapy to help their loved one feel comfortable and secure while sleeping, sitting or in periods of confusion or stress.
Giving a patient a weighted wrap provides comfort through the naturally pleasant feeling of being held or touched. Many have described the added weight of our wraps as the feeling of a hug. Being able to give your loved one a “hug,” even if you aren’t there physically, will help relax and calm during housing transitions, medical checkups or before sleep.
The calm-inducing qualities of weighted wraps and body pads is enough to give deep pressure touch stimulation without being too heavy to remove on their own.

Instructional Information
Our Premium Cotton weighted products are made by hand(s) in the USA from incredibly soft and durable cotton fabrics. They are breathable, soft and cool to the touch, and will remind you of your favorite pajamas. Each wrap pad is filled with millions of beads that equally distribute the weight. Weighted sensory products are not meant for warmth, but are designed to apply consistent pressure to the body - they can be used in addition to other throws or comforters for warmth or for sleeping.
MindCare has selected a wide range of styles and color combinations for men, women and children who can all benefit from the comfort of a weighted therapy!
How to wash your weighted wrap?
Due to the weight of our weighted products we always recommend hand-washing and line-drying. If you would like to wash your weighted item in a machine, use the gentle -or- hand wash setting, cold water and dry on low. We do not recommend spin cycles as the machine may become unbalanced. Please monitor your machine closely if you decide to use it.
What are our weighted wraps filled with?
Millions and millions of glass beads. Why glass? The glass bead is heavier per square inch than poly pellets, so less raw material is required to attain the same weight. Glass beads also make less sound when moved around - this helps those who need sensory products that do not cause noise agitation. All of our Premium MindCare weighted blankets, wraps, and lap pads are now made from safe, natural, eco-friendly glass beads! Our glass beads are Made in the USA and were selected for insured quality and to help promote domestic business!
