Rheumatoid Arthritis 101 – Mosaic Weighted Blanket

We are in need of solutions that soothe joints or muscles. Rheumatoid Arthritis 101. Living with Rheumatoid Arthritis can be hard sometimes you need assistance stretching with deep tissue tools and finding relief while sleeping with the Mosaic weighted blanket.

I’m seeing a ton of rave reviews regarding these Mosaic blankets. I had to dig deeper and I found out that Mosaics are designed to be 8-12% of your body weight. We are referring to the type of sensory hacks that give calm to people that experience clinical PTSD, anxiety, and also arthritis. The idea is to give you the feeling of being hugged or held. So all of the warm and fuzzy feelings you get from this sort of sensory input is replicated via an evenly distributed weighted blanket. Most of the times you experience cramping or pain in the joints or muscle it’s because you’re unable to relax or stretch that muscle or joint.

This blanket, provides the experience of being hugged tight, which is as soothing regardless of your age.

Anyone who sought relief and has experienced this sort of distress understands how frustrating it can be.

So at about $150 for the blanket that could last years and help alleviate pain and allow me to sleep it is a no brainer.

But beware, not all are created and just a few are designed for breathability. Like any great idea, tons of brands pop up to provide products for a excellent idea.

Fortunately Mosaic is based here in Austin, TX and they fabricate here as well. I have been seeing a few reviews based on the products manufactured in China. The Mosaic blanket appears to be among the most relevant early adapter into the trend and we absolutely love the quality and variety they offer.

I recently went to Minnesota for 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 on second thought.

I have been using mine with my Muse headband and the Gaiam roller. I’ll tell you stretching out my problem areas has been a massive benefit.
