This link to Tina Champagne's website looks at the therapeutic use of weight and in particular the weighted blanket. This website includes a couple of very useful links to articles around the use of the blankets.
The author writes about the blanket as "It has been used in acute psychiatry among a variety of age groups and populations and is currently perceived by both consumers and staff as one of the most helpful of the sensory tools used by people during crisis states".
