How it works
Peel. Stick to your top or underwear. Get dressed.
Air starts the warming the moment you open the pouch. It goes on the outside of your underwear, never on skin.
Peel
Open the pouch, peel the liner. Best done before you leave the house, so it is warm by the time you sit down.
Stick to underwear
Outside of your underwear, over where it hurts. Never on skin.
Get dressed
Warm in about 20 minutes, up to 8 hours. Thin enough for leggings. Off before bed.
Fair questions
Before you buy.
Honest answers, including the one about heat not working for everyone.
Is it hot enough? Other patches felt like nothing.
The most common complaint about heat patches is that they never get warm or fade in an hour. We picked our patch by taping a thermometer to it for eight hours and choosing the one that held its warmth longest without running hot. If yours doesn't warm, we replace the box.
Can it burn me?
Worn as directed, on the outside of underwear, the fabric layer keeps it in the comfortable range. Never on bare skin, never while sleeping, not under a tight waistband, off after 8 hours. Full warnings are on the box.
Will it fall off?
The adhesive is made for fabric, not skin. Press it on for a few seconds, then get dressed. It stays put through a commute, a class and a walk. Not waterproof.
Does heat even work for me?
Not for everyone. Roughly one in six people say heat does little for their cramps. If that's you, a patch won't change it. If pain is stopping your life, please see a doctor.
How many do I use per cycle?
One a day on the worst days. A box of 10 covers about two cycles; 20 covers a quarter with spare.
Shipping, returns, the guarantee?
Ships within 2 business days, tracked delivery in 7–10 business days (US) or 10–14 business days (international), plain mailer. Opened patches can't be returned for hygiene reasons; if any patch doesn't warm, message us and a new box ships.
