Hot & Cold Therapy Packs

Hot or Cold: Knowing Which to Use

The beauty of these herbal packs is that one pack does both jobs, but knowing when to use heat versus cold is what actually delivers relief. Heat is for tight, stiff, aching muscles, since it increases blood flow and relaxes tension, while cold is for fresh injuries, swelling, and headaches, where it numbs pain and reduces inflammation. A pack you can microwave or freeze covers both situations, and picking the right shape for the body part is what makes it work.

When to reach for heat

Warm these packs in the microwave for stiff necks, sore backs, menstrual cramps, and chronic muscle tension, where increased circulation loosens things up. For more heat options, see our heat packs collection.

When to reach for cold

Freeze the same packs for new injuries, swelling, bruises, and headaches, where cold numbs pain and calms inflammation. Having one pack for both means you're always ready.
