Product information "ThermaCare® heat pads for menstrual pain"
Heat pads for effective relief of menstrual painThermaCare warming pads for menstrual pain relax cramped muscles and relieve pain in the lower abdomen quickly and effectively. The patented heat cells of the ThermaCare heat pads generate long-lasting therapeutic deep heat at a constant temperature of approx. 40°C over a period of 8 hours. The therapeutic deep heat penetrates deep into the muscles and tissue. Cramps and pain in the lower abdomen, which can occur during menstruation, are effectively and sustainably relieved.
ThermaCare heat pads for menstrual pain heat up automatically and are free from active pharmaceutical ingredients. ThermaCare therefore offers rapid relief from menstrual pain without painkillers and without the side effects typical of pharmaceuticals. Controlled scientific studies have confirmed that the therapeutic deep heat of ThermaCare relieves abdominal pain just as effectively and efficiently as ibuprofen1 or paracetamol2.
The pads have a body-friendly fit and can be easily and discreetly attached to the inside of your panties or shirt at stomach level. The ergonomic fit of the ThermaCare heat pads follows your every move, allowing you to enjoy pain-free, relaxed days even when you're on the move.
How is the therapeutic deep heat from ThermaCare generated?
ThermaCare heat generation is based on a simple but effective natural principle: heat through oxidation.
The cells of the ThermaCare heat pads contain a mixture of natural ingredients: Iron powder, salt, activated charcoal and water. After opening the packaging, these ingredients combine with the oxygen in the air - this sets the oxidation process in motion and generates the ThermaCare heat.
After approx. 30 minutes of heating, the ThermaCare products reach the ideal therapeutic temperature of approx. 40°C. Their special fleece cover regulates the continuous heat supply and conducts the heat directly to the painful area of the body. The therapeutic heat can thus penetrate deep into the tense muscle and tissue layers for the required treatment duration and effectively relieve the pain where it has arisen.

How to use
When should I use ThermaCare warming pads?
To prevent menstrual cramps from restricting your active everyday life, the first signs of menstrual pain or tension in the lower abdomen should be treated with heat at an early stage.
The heat pads should not be used on diseased, injured or damaged skin, on bruises and swellings or on areas of the body that do not feel warm.
How do I use ThermaCare heat pads?
Please do not open the packaging of the ThermaCare heat pads until shortly before use. Take the heat pad out of the airtight packaging and remove the protective film. Then stick the heat pad into your briefs at stomach height with the adhesive surface facing your underwear. Do not stick directly to the skin.
Tip: To avoid an unpleasant feeling of warmth, we recommend that you do not wear the heat pads directly under a tight waistband or belt.
After approx. 30 minutes of heating, the therapeutic temperature of approx. 40°C is reached and maintained for the rest of the prescribed treatment time. The ThermaCare heat pad now provides constant, soothing deep heat for at least 8 hours.
