We are in need of solutions that soothe joints or painful muscles. Post Traumatic Rheumatoid Arthritis. Living with Rheumatoid Arthritis may be hard sometimes you need assistance stretching with deep tissue tools and finding relief when sleeping with the Mosaic weighted blanket.
I am seeing a ton of rave reviews regarding these Mosaic blankets. I needed to dig deeper and I found out that Mosaics are specially designed to be 8-12% of your body weight. We are referring to the same type of low-tech sensory hacks that provide calm to arthritis, anxiety, and also people that experience clinical PTSD. The idea is to give you the feeling of being held or hugged. So all the fuzzy and warm feelings you get from this sort of sensory input is replicated via an weighted blanket. The majority of the times you experience cramping or pain in the joints or muscle it’s because you are not able to relax or stretch that joint or muscle.
This blanket, provides the experience of being hugged tight, which is as soothing no matter your age.
Anyone who sought relief and has experienced this sort of distress knows how frustrating it can be.
So at about $150 for the blanket that can last years and help relieve pain and help me sleep it’s a no brainer.
But beware, not all are created equally and only a few are made for breathability. Like any great idea, tons of brands pop up to offer inferior products for a excellent idea.
Luckily Mosaic is based here in Austin, TX and they fabricate here as well. I have been seeing a few negative reviews based on the products. The Mosaic blanket appears to be one of the most relevant early adapter to the trend and we absolutely love the quality and variety they offer.
I recently went to Minnesota to get a wedding and the 30 degree weather made me wish I had my Mosaic blanket with me. Might have weighed my carry-on down a bit too much.
I’ve been using mine with my Muse headband and the Gaiam roller. I’ll tell you stretching my problem areas out has been a huge benefit.
