The powerful benefits of radiant energy. ThermiPaq's radiant energy offers distinct advantages over the convective energy used in gel/liquid-based products. Convective energy transfers immediately, resulting in a rapid loss of temperature and the potential for hot spots. In contrast, radiant energy transfers slowly and evenly to your affected pain area. This allows theramics therapy to penetrate deeper and more effectively. ThermiPaq delivers therapeutic treatment at optimum levels.

Directions

Instructions for use:

ThermiPaq hot/cold pain relief wrap.

Important:

Please read and follow all instructions carefully and save for future reference.

Thank you for purchasing the ThermiPaq hot & cold wrap. What makes ThermiPaq superior is our revolutionary compound made from all-natural, clay-based materials. This unique, moldable compound is safe, easy to use, and highly efficient in the treatment of a wide variety of pain discomforts.

The following instructions are designed to help you experience the highest levels of therapeutic heat and cold relief. Please read and follow them carefully.

Heat Therapy:

1. Before heating, the ThermiPaq Wrap should be at room temperature. To warm a pad that's been stored in a freezer, place it in the microwave at the defrost setting (or a 30% power level) for double the amount of time indicated in the heating instructions below. Allow pad to sit for five minutes and then follow normal heating instructions below.

2. Place pad in its cloth cover, fold in half and place in center of microwave oven.

3. Find the power rating of your microwave on the below chart. Set the power to high for the time indicated.

Medium 6" x 12" wrap - 1200 Watt 45 Sec. - 1000 Watt 1 Min. - 800 Watt 1 Min.~15 Sec.

If your microwave does not have a turntable, rotate the pad 90 degrees halfway through the heating time.

Important: Do not exceed heating times. Overheating will damage the pad and void the warranty. While in the microwave, if the pad begins to unfold or if any swelling of the pad is observed, then immediately turn off the microwave. Wait for swelling to go down before opening the microwave door.

4. Apply ThermiPaq to the area you wish to treat. Caution: misuse can cause burns. Do not apply the inner pad directly to the skin. Always use the cloth cover. Carefully read all instructions.

5. Conventional electric heating pads have low, medium and high settings. Following the heating instructions as indicated in step #3 will heat the ThermiPaq Wrap to the equivalent of a low setting.

Important: Due to its radiant energy, the ThermiPaq Wrap will normally continue heating for up to 3 minutes after you remove it from the microwave. If a hotter temperature is desired after 3 minutes have elapsed, heat the pad in the microwave for 15 seconds at a high setting and test it again. Repeat this process until the desired temperature is reached.

6. Therapeutic-level heat will last for 20-30 minutes and then remain at a comfort level for an additional hour. To reheat a ThermiPaq after 30 minutes of use, follow the previous instructions but reduce the microwave heat time by half.

Moist heat:

If moist heat is desired, wet the outer cover or place a damp washcloth, sponge or chamois inside the cover after you have heated the pad.

Cold therapy:

1. Place ThermiPaq pad in its cloth cover and place in the freezer. After one hour it will reach the ideal therapeutic cold temperature and still remain flexible enough to form to the body.

2. Therapeutic-level cold will last for 20-30 minutes and then remain at a comfort level for an additional hour.

Storage:

The ThermiPaq Wrap should be stored in a dry place when not in use. It may be stored in the freezer so it is ready to use as a first aid treatment. Some separation may occur between the solids and emollients. If this happens, gently knead the pad.

Washing instructions:

Remove the inner pad containing the clay-based material. The cloth cover may then be machine or hand washed in cold water with mild detergent. Tumble dry.

Warnings

See bottom for safety instructions. Use as directed to avoid possible injury. Test temperature by applying ThermiPaq to sensitive skin, such as the underside of the wrist. Always test the ThermiPaq pad inside its special cloth cover. If the ThermiPaq wrap feels uncomfortable, remove for a few minutes and retest until comfortable. Do not use on infants. Pay special attention when using ThermiPaq for young children and older persons whose skin may be less sensitive to temperature extremes. Persons with diabetes, circulatory problems, nerve damage, paralysis or insensitive skin should use only as directed by a physician. Consult your doctor before treating any serious injury or when pain persists. Do not use in conjunction with liniments, balms or lotions.
