The Huggaroo Soothe warm compress heats up in seconds in your microwave and delivers 10 to 15 minutes of deep heat wherever applied. Remains warm for another 10 to 15 minutes. Made of plush, luxurious fabric, this microwavable heating pad feels wonderful against the delicate skin of your face. It’s one of the most versatile heating pads ever created – the hook and loop fastener allows you to secure it comfortably around your head and use it as a headache relief wrap or sinus mask. It may also be used as a general-purpose heat pad to deliver soothing warmth to any part of the body. Use it to comfort aching or stiff joints, menstrual cramps, neck pain or back pain. The Huggaroo Soothe may also be used as a moist heat eye compress or weighted eye mask with the added feature of calming warmth. Use it as a sleeping mask to block out light or to relax prior to falling asleep. The Soothe may also be chilled in the freezer and used as a cold compress for brief periods of time. Please note: this is a bonus, secondary feature. This product is designed to function primarily as a moist heat warm compress – that’s where it really excels. If you are looking primarily for a cold compress, we recommend the Huggaroo Ice Comfort or Huggaroo Gem – those products are specifically designed to provide long-lasting, comfortable cooling. This product features subtle lavender aromatherapy, released every time you heat it up. Blue color. An unscented version of this product is available as well (in grey or black).
