    Cold & Heat Packs

    Learn More About Cold & Heat Packs

    Cold packs and hot packs are therapeutic bath and beauty supplies, which help encourage relaxation, promote tranquility, and help relieve pain, inflammation, and discomfort. Cold packs, also known as ice packs, contain a gel or liquid that stays cold when frozen, while some hot packs can be heated using a microwave or filled with hot water to provide warmth. In some cases, like a heated eye mask, a battery or electrical outlet is used to gently heat the pack. For the best of both worlds, look for hot and cold packs, which often use a gel that can either be heated or cooled depending on your needs.

    Cold packs and hot packs affect blood flow to the affected area which can help to numb pain and reduce inflammation. The effect is a soothing, comfortable sensation that can help to relax muscles, relieve stiffness, and promote healing. It’s generally a good idea to wrap hot and cold packs with a dish towel or other fabric to avoid direct, prolonged skin contact.

    The type of heat pack you choose will likely target a particular area of your body or be a small pack you can apply to most places. Some of the most popular types of hot packs include:


    • Heated neck wraps: Feel the relaxing sensation of heat and pressure on tense neck and shoulder muscles. These are usually soft fabrics with rice or microplastics inside, which are reusable and add a comfortable amount of weight.
    • Hot packs for hands and feet: Hand warmers packs are useful in winter and cold nights to keep your hands and feet toasty. At a safe temperature, you can toss them in your gloves, boots, or skates for warmth or extra heat around the fire.
    • Heated eye masks: Popular for dry eyes, you can also use them to unwind before bed.

    While many cold and hot packs are designed for one-time use only, reusable options are also available. Many reusable hot packs can be reheated after use and live in your spa and relaxation drawer for whenever you want to use them. Toss some reusable cold packs in your freezer so you have them for the next time you need them.
