How big is the Weighted Body Wrap?It measures 9" x 32" and is quilted in 3" x 3" squares, like a weighted blanket, so the weight stays evenly spread along the whole wrap.
Will it fit in my microwave?Yes. The wrap folds easily to fit in the microwave, including smaller ones. Heat it in short intervals and never leave it unattended.
Is it heavy?No. The weight is spread evenly across the quilted squares, so it feels like gentle, steady pressure rather than heaviness. It sits comfortably around your neck or anywhere on your body.
How is this different from a regular heating pad?A heating pad only adds warmth, plugs into the wall, and stays in one place. The Weighted Body Wrap adds gentle, grounding weight on top of warmth, works hot or cold, needs no cord, and is made to be worn on your shoulders, back, hips, lap, or belly. The weight is the difference: it gives the calming, settled feeling of deep pressure that a flat heating pad cannot.
Will I actually feel something?Most people feel the grounding weight right away, the same kind of steady, reassuring pressure you notice from a firm hug or a heavy blanket. Warmed or chilled, the temperature adds a second layer of comfort. It is a sensory experience meant to help you relax and settle, not a medical device.
Is it good for perimenopause and hot flash nights?Many of our customers reach for the Body Wrap during perimenopause, especially the cool side straight from the freezer on a hot flash night, and the gentle warmth on tense, restless evenings. It is made for comfort during those moments. It does not treat or cure any condition, it simply offers a natural, soothing way to feel more settled.
Where on my body can I wear it?Anywhere tension lives. Drape it across your shoulders and neck, rest it over your chest, wrap it around your lower back, lay it across your lap, or place it warm over your belly. The long, flexible shape molds to wherever you need it most.
What is it made of?A cotton and linen shell filled with whole flaxseed and dried herbs, with a removable, machine washable 100% cotton cover. No plastic pellets, no clay beads, no synthetic fragrance. It is handmade in small batches in New Hampshire.
