Washing instructions for your therapy blanket

A therapy blanket is not a conventional bed blanket, and there are some special considerations to keep in mind when cleaning it.

One of the most frequently asked questions is: Can I wash my therapy blanket? And if so, how?

Washing instructions for the Gravity therapy blanket

  • 30° in the washing machine at up to 800 revolutions
  • Sensitive detergent
  • Not suitable for tumble drying

Note: Check in advance the capacity of your washing machine, i.e. how much weight the drum can hold.

Washing instructions for the Balance Therapy Blanket

  • Not washable

The balance inlett is not washable in the washing machine due to its construction. Please regularly air the blanket and remove stains by hand. Professional cleaning or hand washing is also not recommended, as the properties of the blanket may change.

How are the therapy blanket covers washed?

All our therapy blanket covers can be washed at 30°. The 4-season covers made from a cotton-polyester blend should be washed gently to keep them cozy and soft. The cotton covers made from 100% cotton can be washed as usual and can also be ironed.

Washing instructions for additional products

  • Our health pillows cannot be washed due to the wood chips. The pillow covers can be removed and washed at 30°.
  • The weighted sleep mask can be gently washed in the washing machine or by hand at 30°.

How often should therapy blankets be washed or cleaned?

Basically, it is not necessary to wash therapy blankets more often than regular bed blankets. If you sweat heavily or have allergies, you can wash the weighted blanket (in these cases, the Gravity model is recommended) regularly at intervals of 1-2 months. Otherwise, it is sufficient to wash the Gravity blanket every 4-6 months.

If you use your therapy blanket for sleeping, you should, if possible, shake it lightly and air it well every day after getting up. This ensures that any moisture formed during sleep can escape.

If you use our therapy blankets not for sleeping but only during the day or temporarily, less frequent cleaning is sufficient.

You can wash the therapy blanket covers regularly as you wish. We recommend changing the covers every 1-2 weeks, depending on the season and temperatures.
