Verzwaarde dekens 7 kg

A 7 kg weighted duvet is a common choice for healthy adults. This specific weight strikes an ideal balance for achieving the best effect and comfort for many adults and teenagers. While the weight of a weighted duvet is highly individualized, depending on amongst others body weight and the severity of potential problems with mental health, stress, anxiety, and sleeping difficulties, a 7 kg duvet typically meets the needs of a broad range of users. It provides the right amount of pressure to offer therapeutic benefits - such as improved sleep quality and reduced anxiety - without being overly heavy. For many, a 7 kg weighted duvet also corresponds with the recommended 10-15% of the user's body weight.

Weighted duvets exert a gentle, comforting pressure on your skin, akin to the sensation of a warm embrace. The pressure stimulates deep-seated skin receptors, prompting our hormonal system to ramp up the production and release of so-called "feel-good hormones" like oxytocin and serotonin, leading to increased relaxation and improved sleep quality for the vast majority of users. Studies have even shown that CURA-weighted duvets increase melatonin levels when going to sleep.

It can be difficult to choose the right weight when buying your very first weighted duvet. If you are afraid of the duvet feeling too heavy, you can always start with a lower weight, e.g. less than 10% of your body weight, and increase it after four to eight weeks, if you feel the need or don’t get the desired effect.

Some of our weighted duvet models are available in different weight intervals, either in even (mostly 6 to 12 kg) or uneven numbers (mostly 3 to 15 kg). For example, if your ideal weight is 7 kg but you'd like to choose a model that is only available in 6 or 8 kg, we recommend you to go with the slightly heavier weight for the best effect.
