INFORMAZIONI SUL PRODOTTO

  • Instructions for use

    Only open the packaging directly before use and remove the ThermaCare® HeatWraps for neck and shoulder.

    • Never heat the heat wraps in the microwave, oven or in any other way - risk of fire!
    • If you are up to 55 years of age, you can wear ThermaCare® heat packs at night. Medical data have shown that after using ThermaCare® at night you wake up with noticeably less pain and much more flexibility. The risk of burns increases with age, which is why
      ThermaCare should be worn over thin clothing for those over the age of 55 and not while sleeping.
    • You should first consult a doctor about the use of ThermaCare® HeatWraps for neck and shoulders during pregnancy.
    • If you have heart disease, circulatory problems, diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis and want to use ThermaCare® HeatWraps for neck and shoulder, please seek medical advice beforehand.
    • Please do not moisten or wash the ThermaCare® HeatWraps for neck and shoulders, this will make the heat cells ineffective. However, the function is not impaired by normal body sweat. Profuse sweating, for example during sports, can, however, loosen the adhesive on
      the heat wrap.
