Hot/Cold Therapy Pack - London Plaid

We all need some TLC, and this therapy pack is the perfect way to begin your self-care journey!  Drape it around your neck and shoulders, rest it against the small of your back or lower abdomen, place it on your knee while reading your favorite book.  Hot or cold treatment - this little pack does both!  

Need some extra encouragement to melt away stress?  Add a mild lavender scent from dried organic lavender buds to provide soothing aromatherapy. 

Have a focus spot for aches and pains? The sturdy cotton handles allow for pulling down on the pack for targeted pressure, and they also make for convenient hanging storage.

Have someone in mind who needs their own TLC?  This makes a great gift for birthdays, teacher appreciation and Mother's Day (especially new moms!). It's also a thoughtful item for those who have hospital stays or need some help healing from injuries and illnesses.

SPECIFICATIONS:
These handmade therapy packs are made from soft and comfortable organic cotton and measure 20" x 4". They're the perfect length to drape easily around the neck and stay in place over the shoulders.

My wraps are filled exclusively with organic flax seed and lavender flowers. The filling is distributed along three sewn channels for even distribution. Weight is approximately 22 ounces.

FLAX SEED FILLING:
No rice or lentils! While theses fillers are a cost-effective additive for many therapy packs, I use organic flax seed exclusively as it has the unique ability to retain moisture when heated. This can be particularly beneficial for heat therapy as it helps prevent the skin from becoming overly dry during prolonged use.

AROMATHERAPY:
As well as flax seed, I use organic lavender buds in my handmade neck wraps. Lavender is well-known for its calming and relaxing properties, and its scent can help reduce stress and anxiety levels, promoting a sense of calm and tranquility.

Need it unscented? You can choose Flax Seed or Flax Seed + Lavender filling as an option.

HOT OR COLD USE:
This versatile therapy pack can be heated in the microwave or chilled in the freezer, providing relief from muscle strains, tension headaches, neck arthritis, and stress.  It's also great for menstrual cramping, knee pain and alleviating the discomfort from breastfeeding.

USE:
To heat, place in microwave and heat in 30 second increments, up to 2 minutes. This is plenty of time for maximum warmth. As it cools (about 30 minutes later), you can re-heat again. To avoid burns, DO NOT OVERHEAT. 

To cool, place in freezer until pad reaches desired cooling temperature. It feels great on eyes/forehead for soothing facial inflammation and migraine headaches.

CARE:
Store therapy pack away from moisture, as this will damage the filling. Do not immerse in water. To clean, spot clean with damp cloth and allow to dry completely.

SAFETY PRECAUTION:
Please adhere to product instructions regarding microwave heating. Do not overheat or leave in microwave for a prolonged time - as burns in the heating pad can occur that will cause permanent damage to product. Overheating can also burn the skin when used.

Seller is not responsible for any damage to product or injury to user if these simple precautions aren't followed.

RETURN POLICY:
This is a personal use item, and therefore cannot be returned or exchanged.
