According to recent studies little can be compared to the healing effects of fleece. In fact there is no other product that could be considered superior for bedding. Therefore, here at World of Dreams, we take great pride in our production of blankets with wool filling.
After much research it has become clear why fleece is so beneficial. In fact, for many people a wool blanket is not so much a luxury as a necessity. Note the following properties of wool which prove it to be so beneficial:

- Good for your skin – Sheep’s wool can actually help relieve pain and heal wounds quicker. Wool contains a unique element called lanolin. Lanolin is a fat extracted from sheep’s wool and is often used as a base in ointments and skin medications. Fleece, or sheep’s wool, contains a greater amount of lanolin than any other type of animal wool. By means of this substance, wool can speed up the healing processes and relieve pain at the same time;
- General calming effect –Wool has been found to be beneficial for your mood. Wool can actually improve a person’s emotional state, helping to control one’s temper. Wool is also proved to normalize the blood pressure of patients suffering from hypertension.
- Therapeutic properties – Wool fibers actually give a sort of “mini–massage” when it touches the skin. This improves blood circulation, which in turn improves the condition of skin and muscle tissue. This helps us to relax and get the most out of a night’s rest.
- Warming properties – Obviously the most recognized property of wool is it’s ability to preserve warmth. This is due to the unique structure of wool fibers. Wool fibers have a very intricate, porous, spongy structure which can retain warmth and redirect cold air away from the body. This is not only good for blood circulation, but also for the well-being of one’s internal organs. For example heat is especially beneficial for those suffering from kidney ailments.
- Ability to absorb and quickly disperse moisture овечья шерсть – As fleece is a natural protection against cold and moisture, by using blankets with fleece filling you are ensured a comfortable, dry warmth. This is better for you and guarantees a sound sleep, while at the same time regulating your body temperature. Fleece can absorb moisture up to 33% of its own weight, while at the same time dispersing that moisture. This leaves you feeling perfectly dry in bed (compare this with cotton which absorbs only 10% and synthetic materials which can absorb absolutely nothing). This is important as people on an average naturally release half a liter of moisture every night in their sleep. Since fleece blankets provide a nice dry warmth people suffering from various diseases will find them ideal, It has been proven that dry heat is very effective in treating many different diseases and in alleviating rheumatic joint pains.
