Herbal Hugs provides natural aromatherapy, thermal therapy and herbal therapy in the form of eye packs, body packs and neck wraps, also referred to as “Hugs.”
Anyone can benefit from an Herbal Hug! They’re ideal for sore muscles, body aches and pains, chills, muscle tension, stress, headaches and migraines, stomach aches and menstrual cramps, ear aches and more!
What's A Hug?
A “Hug” is ultra soft polar fleece (satin used for eye bags) filled with a special blend of wheatseed, flaxseed and dried herbs.
How Do I Use It?
Place your Hug in the microwave, toss it in the freezer or simply use it at room temperature to relax to their comforting and gentle scents as an aromatherapy pillow. Complete directions for proper use and care of your Hug are included inside the package.
I was so excited to have received my Herbal Hug! I experience agonizing cramps due to ovarian cysts, not to mention I am ALWAYS stressed. I couldn’t wait to try it out!
I was sent a Body Pack Herbal Hug which was scented with Rose & Chamomile. The lavender buds, chamomile flowers and rose petals that scent this bag are often used to aid peaceful sleep and sooth upset children. The scent reminded me of a relaxing cup of hot Chamomile tea. It was very soothing, relaxing and calming. My 2-year old son loved it just as much as me! My husband wasn’t too thrilled about the scent. I would say that it has a sort of femininity to it. A more masculine scent such as Herbal Mint would be more appropriate for some men.
The Body Packs measure 7"x8". The thick fleece prevents any of the herbs or seed from causing lumps or bumps. My body pack was smooth, light, and fit comfortably against my stomach. The polar fleece provides thermal retention and a tough resistance to stains and dirt.
The tantalizing chamomile scent can be smelt straight from the Hug, but it fills the air with a delightful aroma once heated in the microwave. The Body Pack Hug is great for children – I know my son loves it, as well as the back and stomach. I wish it were longer and wider to accommodate the shoulder area, legs, and neck. In those areas, I have to hold it to keep it in place. But it does work great for relieving my stomach cramps and my son adores it, which makes mom happy!
Body Packs may be purchased online for $19.99. Visit Herbal Hugs to find out more information on this and other products available.
