When draped around the shoulders, or any other aching body part, the
MY-10 or MY-20 Relaxation
in a Bag® neck pillow provides a gentle but firm weight that causes
tight muscles to release, letting go of tension and fatigue.
Our pillows can be used at room temperature, chilled, or heated in the microwave. Most people enjoy its homey, bread-like smell, but with a drop or two of essential oil you can create an aromatherapy experience of your choice – eucalyptus for congestion, lavender for relaxation or any other fragrance.
Our flax seed neck pillows should be heated for 2-3
minutes in a microwave to provide a moist heat that is very effective
in relieving pain. As the muscles relax, circulation increases. Gentle
continuous warmth calms and soothes, aiding the natural healing processes
of the body.
Heated flax seed is long lasting. It retains heat
for 30 minutes or longer and can be reheated over and over again with
no diminution of effectiveness. This is because the flax seed
is a flower seed about 33% of which is oil. This oil, which remains
inside the seed, holds the microwaved heat for a long while giving off
continuous warmth. Since the shell of the seed is soft it allow moisture
from the air to be absorbed for the constant release of moist heat.
This is unlike rice bags that tend to develop a bad odor with continuous
heating. Bags made of grain products tend to lose their effectiveness
as their water content dries out.
Our pillows are designed for hands free use. It is ergonomically contoured to mold to the shoulders so it can be used while reading, watching TV, driving a car, or traveling by plane.
In addition to being great for anyone with neck or shoulder pain,
it can also help people who have headaches, arthritis, fibromyalgia,
seniors with circulation problems, etc. For a long time flax
seed pillows have been used to help calm agitated children.
Just heat for 1-2 minutes and encourage the child to hug it!
