Relief Pak HotSpot Moist Heat Pack

The ReliefPak Moist Heat Pack is the go-to solution to ease aches and pains from arthritis, back pain, muscle strains, stiff neck, sprains, stiff joints, bruises, general soreness and spasms. Why a Moist Heat Pack and not a heating pad? Moist heat is more effective in deeper tissue heating and penetrates more than dry heat at the same temperature. Ready for use after less than an hour in either the stove, microwave or other heating unit. Ideal for use in recovery post-injury and post-workout with a material that conforms to any body part and is pliable when heated. Highly recommended by physiotherapists, physicians, chiropractors, athletic trainers and kinesiologists. Moist Heat Packs are safe for adults and children and are easy to travel with. The heat packs are Latex-free.

Heat your moist heat pack

1. Hold pack by corner loops and gently shake. This distributes the filler and permits it to swell (absorb water) evenly.
2. Place pack in heating unit (for home, use a large pot or pan).
3. Fill heating unit with enough water to keep pack completely immersed.
4. Let pack soak for at least 2 hours. Pack will become completely swollen with water. This long soaking procedure is necessary only with a new pack. After initial use, pack can be prepared by soaking for 15-20 minutes.
5. If microwaving, place hot pack in microwave safe container and cover completely with water. Place container in microwave and heat at full power until water temperature reaches 160°F (-71°C).
6. If using stove place pack in heating vessel and slowly increase water temperature to 160°F (-71°C). Let pack soak at 160°F (-71°C) for 20 minutes.

Care for moist heat pack cover :

Covers can be laundered in washing machine and dryer. Wash separately, no bleach. Max drying temperature: 160°F (-71°C). Fasten hook and loop closures together before laundering to avoid hook snagging terry material; some models include extra loop tabs to cover exposed hook during laundering. Avoid ironing.

Frequent use of moist heat pack :

If pack is going to be used for regular or frequent treatments, keep it in water (either in the heating unit or in a covered pot on the stove).

Storage of moist heat pack :

When pack is to be stored for an extended period of time, it should be kept moist and cold. Place wet pack in a plastic bag, seal it and store it in freezer. Alternatively, you can permit pack to dry thoroughly and then store it. When stored in this manner the filler becomes hard and caked. This does not harm the pack, but will require a much longer time for reheating.
