What I'm Loving Now

If you don’t have one of these little tools in your box of tricks you need to get one.  The Relaxing Microwaveable Comfort Wrap is just what you want to have on hand when you overdo it just a little bit (and we all do that!).  It can be used hot or cold for the treatment of pain caused by muscle strain.  The one I have is filled with rice and a special stress-relieving, aroma-therapeutic blend of lavender and chamomile. 


·       Use it Hot:  Moisten it and pop it in the microwave for a minute or two and  apply

·         Use it Cold:  Place in a clean, sealed bag and let stay overnight in the freezer

What I love about it is the portability.  Unlike a heating pad where you  are plugged into a wall and are limited to how far you can go, this wrap can be anchored on your body with a large scarf.  You can also use a Velcro knee brace to hold it in place for your limbs. Use your creativity!   Another reason why I am a fan is that, if you heat it and go to bed, it eventually cools down and you won’t have to worry about burning yourself as with a heating pad (which you should never sleep with!).

Where do you get one?  Harmon’s  Discount Health & Beauty if you prefer to shop in a store.  However, you can always purchase one online at Amazon (is there anything that Amazon does not have?)  

Buy two – one to keep in the freezer and one to heat up!
