The heat pad is made from carefully selected and dried cherry stones. The heated pad can maintain its temperature for up to an hour. It releases heat evenly and slowly, which is gentle on the skin. The product can be used as a heat pack to relieve colic in babies, muscle pain, or menstrual cramps. The heat pack can be used to aid breastfeeding immediately before breastfeeding. The heat can help to unblock milk ducts.
The pillow can also be used as a cold compress for sprains, fever, headaches, and insect bites. A cold compress can also relieve sore and swollen breasts during engorgement or mastitis.
The pillow can be heated without the cover in a microwave (650W/1.5 min) or in a conventional oven (130°C/10 min). It can be cooled in a freezer (30-60 min) or refrigerator (approx. 2 hours). The protective cover can be washed by hand or in a washing machine at 40°C.
