SHARPER IMAGE Hot & Cold Herbal Aromatherapy Neck & Shoulder Plush Wrap Pad for Soothing Muscle Pain and Tension Relief Therapy, 100% Natural Lavender & Herb Spa Blend, Use in Microwave or Freezer

Love! It can be heated or cold. Health my husband’s upper back shoulder and neck area. Mine as well. Lifesaver Highly recommend When he did, it’s a very pleasant smell of different herbs that are inside of this soft, beautiful velvet fabric well-made product

Same as in pictures. Smells good with herbs. I heat and put it on my neck, it’s so nice.

So, four stars for pain relief because heat can only do so much. But it does absolutely help encourage tense muscles to soften, and invites me to take 10 minutes to relax. (Would be soothing in chilly weather too!) It warms evenly and quickly in the micro (ours is 1000W and it takes about a minute 15). Holds heat quite a while. Drapes with a bit of weight over full shoulder, back of neck and between upper shoulder blades too. The lavender scent is not fake (I HATE fake lavender scent!!) This is light and creamy authentic lavender which is most noticeable right out of the micro and then either dissipates as it cools or I get used to the aroma. Fabric is super soft. Can't find any fault with it. Treat yourself or someone you love!

It is heavy, which makes the muscles relax and smells nice. I min in microwave makes it nice and warm. Relaxes the muscles nicely.

I have 3 of these now. They are so handy! Sometimes I use it on my face for sinus issues or my head for a migraine or draped around a shoulder cap when it’s sore. If I have chest cold, sometimes it’s nice to lay one on my chest to just feel the warmth and smell the scent. If my abdomen is not feeling great, this lays across my belly area. Put a warm 1 or 2 in the bottom of the blanket for warm toes! I leave them on my couch tucked behind their pillows. I pull them out and wrap them in a circle to hold a mug of coffee or tea. It’s great for the neck and shoulders, too, but as you can see, it has so many more uses! I sent one of these to my daughter who has sinus issues. She loves hers! While visiting my 14 y/o niece, she was using my wrap on her shoulders and neck. She loved it and how it smells. I sent her one and her mom said she might be stealing it, hahaha! The quality is good. No open spots. Everything is sewn closed. The wrap came in a sealed bag, but not like a seal-a-meal bag where the air is sucked out. You have to cut the thick plastic bag open, though. It likely holds all the scent it. The fabric is soft and not static-y. You can put this in the freezer (I would say like most cold compress things…in a sealed bag so it doesn’t get freezer smell) but the cold doesn’t last very long. You’re better off with one of those fine sand style filled kind. I love those. I like to heat this wrap folded over itself in my Whirlpool 1000w microwave for 1 min 30 seconds. Then I flip it over and do another 1 min 30 seconds and check it. If you don’t use yours often, store it in a ziplock style bag with a desiccant packet/silicon gel packet or silica alternative
