Heating Instructions
Instructional Use
Cold Therapyis very effective for swelling, pain,
and muscle spasm.
Heat Therapyhelps relax muscles and improve circulation.
•Always read heating and cooling instructions that we provide
with each product.
•Use suggested heating times for all types and sizes as a
guide only, as the heating power of each individual
microwave may vary.
•Always remove the plastic bag that your heating wrap
comes in prior to heating in the microwave.
•Fold your wrap and place in microwave. Place a small
microwavable container (approx 1/4 cup) filled with water
on top of heat wrap. Or lightly mist with a water bottle
before heating. Just do not soak or overmist wrap.
Do not get heat wrap ingredients wet.
While the heat wrap heats, the water helps provide a
moist heat, and will prevent scorching.
•Make sure heat wrap does not touch the walls
of the microwave during heating. Microwave plate
must be able to turn freely, so to avoid hot spots.
Also, to avoid hot spots make sure that wrap
is place on a clean surface in the microwave.
•Be very careful to not overheat your heat wrap, as
this will burn the ingredients. Follow instructions!
•For Herbal Heat Wrap and Large Herbal Heat Wrap,
start microwaving for 2 minutes, check heat consistency,
then add 30 seconds at a time, to increase warmth of wrap.
Check warmth after each 30 second. You should not have
to exceed 3 1/2 minutes.
•Remember that microwaves have different power outputs,
and can vary from 500w-1400w. This can significantly
vary the length of time when heating your wrap. On powerful
microwaves, (800w and above) reduce time to 50%. This can
increase the life of your wrap significantly.
•Watch for signs of use of your wrap. If you see charring of
the bag or a bad smell to it. Dispose of your bag, after
it has cooled down.
•When you are done using your heat wrap, after it has fully
cooled down, place in a air tight sealed bag to keep ingredients
fresh between uses.
•If you store your herbal wrap in the freezer for Cold Therapy,
store wrap in an airtight freezer bag in the freezer or refrigerator.
•Always allow cold or frozen wraps to adjust to
room temperature before heating in the microwave.
•Following the suggested instructions that come
with your wrap will lengthen the life of your
herbal wrap. If your wrap does, burn or get
scorched, we do provide replacement bags,
for less of the price of a new wrap.
Just let us know!
