The Health Benefits of Sleeping with a 700gsm Wool Quilt

The importance of a good night’s sleep cannot be overstated. We have a few articles here on our site covering this very topic but let’s just say that every physical, emotional and mental function of our minds and bodies can be negatively impacted by a lack of sleep. So what can we do to ensure we get the hours of deep sleep that we need? Creating a comfortable sleeping environment that promotes rest and relaxation is one and, in this article, we’re going to talk about the impact wool plays in creating this environment. Let’s start with temperature regulation.

Temperature Regulation

A 700gsm wool quilt is typically heavier and warmer given the square meter of wool but that doesn’t mean it can’t regulate the body’s temperature. Wool, by its natural formation, is breathable and it has moisture-wicking properties. This means that this type of quilt is an excellent choice for all seasons as it can help to maintain an even and comfortable body temperature.

It’s Hypoallergenic

Do you suffer with an allergy that keeps you up at night? A 700gsm wool quilt might be the solution to your sleepless nights. Choose wool and you can say goodbye to sharing your sleeping space with nasties such as dust mites, mould, and mildew. This quilt is also an excellent choice for those that have skin conditions as, unlike synthetic materials, wool will not aggravate sensitive skin and cause itching and dryness.

Moisture Control

Overheating and sweating can be a real problem during the hottest months of the year in Australia. Do yourself a favour and create a comfortable and dry sleeping environment with wool bedding. The material will wick away any moisture that may be lingering in your bed and in the room.

Supports Better Sleep

We briefly touched on this in the intro but let us explore why a wool quilt supports better sleep. It’s no secret that comfort leads to deeper sleep and there is nothing more comfortable than a soft surface that’s warm but breathable. Wool bedding can totally transform your sleeping experience and bring you to levels of comfort that you never thought possible.

And there you have it - four health benefits of choosing a 700gsm wool quilt over other options the next time you’re shopping for bedding. There are many more and we look forward to sharing those in future articles.
