  • You can choose to customise your heat pack with UK-grown lavender buds for an ultra-relaxing experience!
  • Activate the heat pack by gently warming for up to 2 minutes in a microwave - it will stay warm for around an hour. 
  • If you prefer cold therapy, store in the freezer and use as a cold compress!

Heat the person (not the room) this winter

Reducing our energy consumption is one of the key ways through which we can reduce our carbon footprint. With energy bills rising as we head into winter, it's never been more important to try and keep warm in a sustainable and efficient way. Your lum heat pack works like a traditional hot water bottle, helping you keep yourself warm without having to heat a whole flat or room with gas, electric or oil heating.

How to use

Relax and soothe your tense muscles by applying heat to boost circulation and blood flow to the affected area. Or reducce your heating bills by using a heat pack instead of central heating on chilly days!

Here are some instructions if using them for the first time:

For heat therapy:
Ensure the microwave turntable is clean and rotating for even temperature distribution. Place a small mug of water in the microwave with the heat pack to help keep it moist. Microwave (800w) in 30-second increments for a maximum total of two minutes.
Remove from the microwave and apply to the afflicted area. Wait until completely cooled before re-heating.

For cold therapy:
Place heat-pack in a freezer-proof container or sealable bag. Store in freezer for at least 30 minutes or until next desired use. Remove from the freezer container/bag and apply to the afflicted area.
