Microwavable Heating Pads & Hot Cold Packs for Pain Relief

Our handmade microwavable heating pads provide natural relief for back pain, menstrual cramps, muscle aches, and injuries. Each 6" x 12" hot and cold pack is filled with 100% flaxseed and your choice of aromatherapy herbs (lavender, peppermint, or chamomile). Microwave for 20-30 seconds for deep penetrating heat, or freeze for 2+ hours for cooling relief.

What Can Microwavable Heating Pads Help With?

Menstrual Cramps & Period Pain

Place on your lower abdomen for natural cramp relief without medication. The moist heat from flaxseed penetrates deeper than electric heating pads for better pain relief.

Lower Back Pain & Sciatica

The 6" x 12" size covers your lower back. Perfect for chronic back pain, muscle strains, herniated discs, or sciatica nerve pain.

Muscle Aches & Soreness

Use after workouts, long days on your feet, or physical labor. Heat relaxes tight muscles while cold reduces inflammation and swelling.

Sports Injuries & Strains

Alternate between heat and cold therapy for optimal recovery. Heat increases blood flow while cold reduces swelling and bruising.

Arthritis & Joint Stiffness

Morning heat therapy helps loosen stiff joints and reduce arthritis pain. Many customers use daily for chronic joint conditions.

Post-Surgical Recovery

Doctors often recommend heat and cold therapy after surgery. Our packs are reusable and more cost-effective than disposable options.

Why Choose Flaxseed Over Rice?

Flaxseed retains heat 2-3 times longer than rice (20-30 minutes vs. 10-15 minutes) and provides moist heat that penetrates deeper into muscles. The 2-pound weight provides gentle compression while staying flexible and moldable to your body.

Each heating pad is handcrafted in California with soft fabrics. Free US shipping. Handcrafted since 2006.
