My name is Tina Ureten,
I used to suffer from chronic insomnia.
Having insomnia, while trying to maintain a professional career as a medical professional in my ultrasound clinic, created a lot of stress in my life.
I was TIRED all the time. I couldn't focus. My work suffered, as did my mood and demeanour.
My family noticed and so did my patients. Over the years, it really took its toll on me.
I tried medications, sleep devices and sleep therapy to no avail.
But none could really get me away from the horrible, debilitating condition of insomnia.
Then I discovered weighted blankets after borrowing one from a friend and found that it provided an amount of comfort and security that actually helped me sleep more comfortably.
The weight created a sense of SECURITY and CALMNESS that literally eradicated the sense of unease and anxiety that kept me tossing and turning with that sense of unease and discomfort all night.
Amazingly, after years of suffering I was able to sleep again.
I realized then that these incredible blankets could be just what millions of people like me who are suffering from sleep issues need to have in their possession.
But after using my blanket, I realized there was still much to be improved upon. Many of the blankets I tried were made with harmful plastic beads and chemicals that shouldn't be wrapped around your body for 8 hours a day!
So I went ahead and developed my own - Body Benefit Weighted Blankets.
My medical grade weighted blankets are made with far infrared - FIR emitting natural minerals. They effectively improve sleep and boost the mood and energy by increasing serotonin level.
They also help block the harmful effects of electromagnetic waves that are produced from electronic devices like smartphones, computers, and tablets - something permeating our surroundings 24/7.
The weight of the blankets gives a hugging and calming effect which is very helpful for autism and sensory processing disorders.
They can be safely used for school age children and teenagers. FIR increases blood circulation, boosts cellular metabolism and stimulates body's own healing mechanism.
It also regulates mental health and can help for Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, ADD, PTSD, Fibromyalgia and Menopause.
The extra benefits from blankets come from by diminishing electromagnetic radiation. Users get less exposure of wireless signals during their sleep under the blankets.
My goal now is to show the world the benefits of weighted blankets and why everyone should have one of their own!
