With proper care, a Flax Therapy Wrap can last up to two years. Keeping it dry and storing it correctly will help it stay comfortable and effective for as long as possible.
If you store the wrap in the freezer, let it cool completely before sealing it in a resealable bag. This keeps it clean and prevents moisture from collecting on the fabric. The wrap can stay in the freezer indefinitely without harming the flaxseed.
If you do not need cold therapy, store the wrap at room temperature so it can air out. This helps maintain the natural feel of the fabric and the flaxseed inside.
You can add aromatherapy only if you choose to use your own diluted essential oils. Lightly spritz the fabric if desired, but avoid soaking the flaxseed. The wrap works perfectly well without any added scent.
All Kuseno flaxseed products include a one year limited warranty on workmanship and materials. The warranty covers the fabric and seams under normal use. The flaxseed itself is not covered.
When heated, the wrap stays warm for ten to thirty minutes. The exact time depends on how hot you make it and how you use it. Your skin may adapt to the heat before the wrap fully cools, so it may feel cooler to you even while it still feels warm to someone else. Placing it under a sweater, blanket, or towel helps it hold heat longer.
You can reheat the wrap as soon as it cools down. There is no need to let it return to room temperature. Heat it in short intervals until it reaches a comfortable warmth.
Avoid overheating the wrap. Excessive heat can scorch the flaxseed, shorten the life of the product, or create a fire hazard. Never leave it unattended in the microwave.
When used cold, the wrap stays chilled for thirty to forty five minutes. The length of time depends on how long it was in the freezer and how you are using it.
