Our Story
How Our Company Was Born
As a therapist (MMFT), Donna noticed that her clients were calmer and happier with their Weighting Comforts weighted blankets. The reassuring heaviness helped slow overactive minds and calm restless bodies, providing a sense of peace when her patients needed it most.
We miss out on so much sleep in our overactive modern lives.
The Weighting Comforts mission is to help restore the balance between daily energy and nightly rest.
Meet the founders.
Donna Durham, MMFT
While pursuing a masters degree in marriage and family therapy, Donna first noticed the effectiveness of a weighted blanket. An advisor in her program suggested weighted blankets for patients who especially needed help relaxing.
Donna's background in Home Economics Education informed her fabric choices and construction expertise, and her clients reported a sense of relaxation immediately after trying her handcrafted weighted blankets.
Josh Durham
As a Business Management Major, NCAA track athlete, Student Body Vice-President and ambitious self-starter, 23-year-old Josh Durham was ready and capable for his first business launch. Combining Josh and Donna's individual strengths was an exciting adventure and led to Josh being featured in “Forbes Under 30”.
Calmer Nights, Brighter Mornings.
Weighted blankets benefit users just like a deep tissue massage.
Most people find the added pressure to be especially relaxing, increasing their overall sense of well being and bringing new peace to their nighttime routine
Simply put, nights with a weighted blanket are calming, cozy and comforting. Weighting Comforts embraces you in a peaceful space like a soft hug, calming your mind as you drift off to sleep.
