SacksyThyme Microwave Heating Pad for Pain Relief, Flaxseed & Cherry Pit Herbal Heating Pad, Hot Cold Therapy (ABCs)

This is a perfect heating pad that has a nice natural smell that is not overwhelming. My daughter needs to use it before bedtime to help her to urinate. The size is also perfect.

Searching the internet for a quality, worth-the-cost natural heating and cooling pad. Came across this one, and I’m thrilled with it so far.*Menstrual cramps: Women, relieve your suffering with this! It’s like a warm, soothing hug for the ovaries. I typically have moderate to severe cramping during menses and in effort to avoid taking medication, I try natural remedies like warm baths, essential oils, and now this product. I stuck mine in the microwave for 1 min, 30 seconds and was pleasantly surprised with both the steady warmth and the ability to contour it to my body. I started off on my abdomen, then further down, and at one point between my legs almost like a diaper - lol. But hey, it worked and within a few minutes, I felt significant relief.*Headaches: Another use for this pad is for headaches and sinus pressure relief. I popped it into the freezer for about an hour, and the coolness wasn’t too sharp/shocking for my headache induced sinus pressure. Just cool it minimally and rest it across your eyes, nose, and cheeks. It can also be folded for double the weight, which is helpful sometimes.*Arthritis: Ah, the joys of rheumatic issues, am I right? Hot or cold, depending on how you treat your arthritis, this is a game changer. The heat and cold are both concentrated especially if you fold this pad; you can also sort of wrap it around you if you’re focusing on a hip or knee.*Pets: My cats especially seem intrigued by this pad, and after I had used it, I placed it on my coffee table. My cat immediately circled on top of it and took a nap. Not sure that it’s meant for this, but I can see this being useful from a holistic aspect for pet owners that are tending to animals with arthritis, hip issues, or even pets that are constantly shivering. Just be wary of temperatures and don’t go crazy heating it up.Other thoughts... the scent of this is pleasant and not overwhelming. Reminds me of a health food store or the smell of an aromatherapy room in a massage place. The fabric is sturdy and seems well-constructed. I purchased the black and white gradient stripes. Overall, this is absolutely a product that I’m glad I purchased, that I’ll get a ton of use out of, and that I would consider giving to friends and family as gifts — especially someone recovering from illness or injury.

I have chronic back pain...heat is my best offense...Size of pad is perfect for heat distribution...love the smell...pad well constructed. I liked the pad so much I bought 1 for my sister, 1 for each daughter (2), for X-mas... Then I bought 2 more as back-up for myself! Good luck to your company.

Good quality and weight. Doesn't stay as hot like my buckwheat one did

I like the flexible, form fitting properties of this heating pad! The fragrance is nice, although I have two and I prefer the unscented. My first Sacksytyhme heating pad is four years old, and it’s as good as new!

Love this heating bag. The smell is absolutely delightful and lasts for years(we are on year 4 and we use it every night over the 6 month winter period). We have several other heating bags (corn, cherry, rice) but this is the best by far! We bought another one to keep peace in the family! Also gave as gifts to in-laws. Highly recommend

Works great, smells good for a little while, and I like the size

Like a few other people that reviewed this product i have endometriosis too and have been longing to get one of these for so long. to heat helps tremendously with my symptoms. i try to be an honest reviewer so here it goes. the product its self seems really well made. the thing i liked most was that it came with a warranty for a year. the size of the product (for me) is perfect and covers the width of my body relatively perfectly. The scent of the thyme is so relaxing and not over bearing. I get migraines from overly scented things and this is just a light smell. it also keeps the heat very well, I put mine in the microwave for 1:30 and the heat lasts for about an hr. surprisingly you can also chill this one too. instructions that came with it say to keep in the freezer for about 2 hrs in a resealable bag. so far i have not had any negativity with my purchase. it actually arrived way before it was scheduled to which i was so grateful as i was dealing with my symptoms. colors are true to picture but i should note that its not machine washable but you can spot clean if needed. I would definitely recommend getting this product and plan to buy more lol. i honestly didn't know how much i would love this thing.
