CUDDLE BUDDIES

Let me tell you a little about us and how to use us for all your aches, pains, booboo’s, tension and stress.  We are also wonderful in bed for cold feet, or to snuggle against your chest.  We help ease the pain of fibromyalgia and arthritis.  Cats and dogs like to lay on us so watch they don’t steal us from you, make them purchase their own!  You can take us in your car as as we warm you up on those chilly winter mornings.  We can also be frozen, and used as ice packs for injuries and the little ones booboo’s.    We are filled with all natural whole corn, we do not require added fragrances (as do rice socks) as people have allergies to fragrances which can cause migraine headaches. We want our owners, especially with allergies, to enjoy the benefits of our heating pads and ice packs. When heated we will smell like a bowl of freshly popped corn!

We will stay warm about 1-2 hours and will ease those stiff back muscles, sore knees, or shoulders. When leg cramps are bothersome, try using us to relax sore tight muscles. Shhhh! we are also helpful for menstrual cramps.   We are as gentle as we are versatile.  Place us in a freezer bag and then in the freezer for a few hours and we are ready for instant relief for burns, bumps and bruises. Enjoy a gentle cold that isn’t harsh like ice cubes - without the mess of melting ice.

Great reasons for taking us home!  We are portable - no wires as with conventional electric heating pads. Heating pads must be kept near electrical outlets, and can pose burn and fire hazards. We have been filled with corn opposed to other fillers such as gel packs, rice and other grains.  For the safety of our owners, we were worried about being punctured or heated too long and hot gel leaking out to cause burns.   Wheat carried warnings from several websites, including a couple of fire station’s websites, they warned of the danger of fires and explosions from the small grains drying out.  If wheat gets too moist, it can start to rot.  Rice is also small, and can scorch if reheated before it’s completely cooled, or it can scorch if it’s heated for too long.  Because it’s a smaller grain, it doesn’t stay warm for as long.  Rice tends to develop a slightly rancid odor over time.  Flax heating bags have been known to explode.  Essential oils and dried botanicals, used for aromatherapy, also carried the risks of fire.  No corn bags have been recalled or issued warnings by the FDA or the Consumer Products Safety Committee.  Several models of electrical heating pads have been recalled. 

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:  All that is needed is a microwave for heating or a freezer for chilling.  Heat the smaller Cuddle Buddies for 1 minute and check to see if we are warm enough for you, if not heat for another 30 seconds.  The larger Cuddle Buddies can be heated for 2 minutes and then checked to see if they are warm enough and if not heat for another 30 seconds.  To Find out if we are warm enough, only one thing is required of you -  GIVE US A GREAT BIG HUG!  We warm up as you hug us!!  When heated as directed the average temperature is between 120 and 130 for the first 15 minutes. We will  stay warm for approximately two hours.  For the elderly, this helps not to raise blood pressures.  Some of us have been purchased to use in nursing homes and doctor’s offices.  Once warmed we can help the technician to make it easier to draw blood.  No worries that residents of the nursing home will be burned or tangled in wires.

A complete set of instuctions will be sent with each of us.  Take care of us as directed and we will be a great friend to you for numberous years.

More of our friends will be added soon and if you don’t see one of us that maybe a favorite of yours, just email our makers and they will be sure to find what you are looking for.
