100% Nat­ural Hot & Cold Herbal Packs

 

 

  Jan­u­ary 2011 — Spe­cial Edition

Got Cold Feet?

Nature Creation’s Thermo-Shoes — A Warm Win­ter Solu­tion
 

It is very com­mon for many peo­ple to expe­ri­ence cold feet dur­ing the win­ter months. When the weather drops the body tem­per­a­ture starts to fall below its nor­mal range, redi­rect­ing the blood sup­ply to crit­i­cal organs to keep them warm (the brain, the lungs, the heart, and oth­ers). The first areas to lose this blood sup­ply are the extrem­i­ties — the hands and the feet. This is why you first feel the effects of the cold in your fin­gers and toes.

 

A Solu­tion: The Nature Cre­ation Thermo Shoes

The Nature Cre­ation inno­v­a­tive and patented Thermo-Shoes come with remov­able, 100% nat­ural herb packs. The packs may be heated for approx­i­mately 40 sec­onds in a microwave and inserted in the flex­i­ble, zip­per sole com­part­ments of the shoes.

 

Due to the unique patented design, the heat from the Thermo Shoes will pen­e­trate the reflex­ol­ogy points in your feet. In addi­tion, the aro­matic herbs may pro­mote relax­ation, relieve ten­sion and boost over­all well­ness. You can also cool the packs in the freezer to help reduce swelling and stiffness.

 

Warm Win­ter Sav­ings From Nature Creation 

 

For a lim­ited time, Nature Cre­ation is offer­ing the inno­v­a­tive Thermo-Shoes for only $24.99 (A 50% dis­count), when you make a pur­chase of another prod­uct from the Nature Cre­ation website.

 

 

Note: More chronic con­di­tions of cold feet may be a sign of a ner­vous sys­tem dis­or­der, poor cir­cu­la­tion, low thy­roid con­di­tions or other issues. If you feel you have a chronic con­di­tion, please seek a diag­no­sis and treat­ment from a med­ical doctor.

 

Dis­claimer: Offer valid only at www.naturecreation.com. The $24.99 pro­mo­tional Thermo-Shoes are only avail­able when you make a pur­chase of another prod­uct on the Nature Cre­ation web­site.  Only pur­ple color is avail­able.

Stress & Back Pain

May 26th, 2010

There is a strong con­nec­tion between stress and back pain. Stress causes a release of stress hor­mones. Stress hor­mones increase the per­cep­tion of pain.

Stress hor­mones also cause the mus­cles to tighten up. The mus­cles may tense up so much they go into painful spasms. Back and neck mus­cles are par­tic­u­larly sen­si­tive to the effects of stress.

Mus­cle ten­sion reduces blood flow to the tis­sues (reduced oxy­gen and nutri­ents to the tis­sues). Reduced blood flow delays heal­ing. Ade­quate cir­cu­la­tion is also nec­es­sary to flush acidic waste prod­ucts (byprod­ucts of mus­cu­lar activ­ity) from the tis­sues. A build up of acidic waste prod­ucts in the tis­sues can cause fatigue and pain.

Stress in itself can cause back pain. A per­son with a ‘bad back’, e.g. a per­son who has scar tis­sue from an old injury or degen­er­a­tive changes in the spine due to aging, may notice the effects of stress trig­ger­ing back pain even more than some­one with a healthy back. The slight­est mus­cle ten­sion may be ‘the straw the broke the camel’s back.’ For instance, if spinal nerves are already restricted by scar tis­sue or cal­cium deposits it may take min­i­mal mus­cle ten­sion to com­press nerves and cause pain. Sci­at­ica may flare up when one is feel­ing stressed.

Tense back mus­cles increase back pain and pain increases tens­ing of mus­cles — a vicious cycle of stress and back pain can be created.

The back is less capa­ble of tol­er­at­ing even mild abuse (lift­ing some­thing slightly heavy, poor pos­ture, a sud­den twist, sit­ting too long, etc) when a per­son is under stress. Stress causes the mus­cles to tighten up, leav­ing them vul­ner­a­ble to injury.
Reduc­ing Stress

Reliev­ing stress can reduce pain that is aggra­vated or caused by tense mus­cles. Man­ag­ing stress on an ongo­ing basis may also help pre­vent back pain from occur­ring in the first place.

Relax­ation Tech­niques

Relax­ation tech­niques invoke the “relax­ation response”, mus­cles relax­ation and blood pres­sure, heart­beat, and res­pi­ra­tion decrease. This is the oppo­site of the “stress response” where mus­cles tense and blood pres­sure, heart­beat, and res­pi­ra­tion increase. Nature Cre­ation is the nat­ural pain and stress relief herbal packs, which may help you to achieve your relax­ation objec­tives while reliev­ing pain nat­u­rally. Each pack is filled with 9 essen­tial nat­ural herbs which you may use it as hot or cold pain treat­ments and/ or relax­ation ther­a­pies. There are more than 18 dif­fer­ent designs which each will com­fort­ably fit onto the con­tour of your body.

Exer­cise
Stress can be relieved through exer­cise. Aer­o­bic exer­cise is a par­tic­u­larly effec­tive form of exer­cise for reliev­ing stress –aer­o­bic exer­cise burns off stress hor­mones and increases the body’s pro­duc­tion of endor­phins — nat­u­rally occur­ring chem­i­cals that relieve pain and improve mood. Stretch­ing exer­cises also can relieve stress and loosen tight mus­cles. Yoga incor­po­rates poses that increase strength and flex­i­bil­ity with breath­ing tech­niques to relieve stress.

There are many relax­ation tech­niques, from sim­ple deep breath­ing exer­cises that are easy to learn on one’s own to self-hypnosis that must ini­tially be taught by a qual­i­fied pro­fes­sional. Other relax­ation tech­niques include med­i­ta­tion, pro­gres­sive mus­cle relax­ation, guided imagery, biofeedback.

Nature Creation — The Ultimate Natural Therapy Solution

March 11th, 2010

Intro­duc­tion

            Nature Cre­ation® was estab­lished in 1996 and started out as a sim­ple herbal pack busi­ness.  In 2004, it evolved to become the lead­ing man­u­fac­ture of nat­ural hot & cold herbal ther­apy pack in USA. 

            Nature Cre­ation® prod­ucts are eas­ily found in major shop­ping malls and our exclu­sive web­site, www.naturecreation.com.  Our man­u­fac­tur­ing facil­ity is located in Chatsworth, Cal­i­for­nia and we have two strate­gic dis­tri­b­u­tion facil­i­ties in USA to sup­port fast deliv­ery to our clients.

Why is Nature Cre­ation®?

If you’re nurs­ing limb or joint prob­lems rang­ing from sports injuries to arthri­tis, con­ven­tional flat hot or cold packs miss the mark — lit­er­ally. They pro­vide only par­tial cov­er­age of the trau­ma­tized area because of their rec­tan­gu­lar con­struc­tion and inabil­ity to bend when frozen.

The herbs pack ther­apy from Nature Cre­ation® con­quers those flaws with a patented com­fort design that com­pletely encir­cles the area with heat or cold for faster and bet­ter treat­ment. Nature Cre­ation® is a man­u­fac­ture of fam­ily of reusable herbal pack that fit over the shoul­der, wrist, knee, thigh or other body parts. These inno­v­a­tive packs wrap the limb or joint in a flex­i­ble, cushion-like padding that stays in posi­tion with straps & wraps for rapid hands-free use. The total cov­er­age allows the entire cir­cum­fer­ence of the injured area to be treated at one time instead of in stages as required with a flat pack. The pro­pri­etary of 9 essen­tial nat­ural herbs fill­ing stay soft when frozen or heated to allow the pack to mold to the body, ensur­ing deep hot or cold pen­e­tra­tion of soft tis­sues. Together, these fea­tures reduce treat­ment time, pro­vide faster pain relief, keep swelling to a min­i­mum, and increase over­all effectiveness.

Used hot, the Nature Cre­ation® herbal packs pro­vide sooth­ing surround-the-limb relief for arthri­tis, carpal tun­nel syn­drome, mus­cle aches, post-operative pain and more. They heat in the microwave in about one minute or two, and their abil­ity to be used repeat­edly can save hun­dreds of dol­lars over expen­sive one-time-use hot packs.

Used cold, Nature Cre­ation® herbal packs pro­vide first aid for acute soft tis­sue injuries, ten­nis elbow and other con­di­tions that require cold appli­ca­tions to com­bat swelling, pain and bruis­ing. The insu­lat­ing pro­tec­tive cover solu­tion that is offered as a an option with each pack will pro­tect the skin from extreme tem­per­a­tures also sup­plies slight com­pres­sion, allow­ing the herbs to address two of the four steps in the RICE (rest,

ice, com­pres­sion, ele­va­tion) method of injury treatment.

Nature Cre­ation® Hot/Cold Ther­apy herbal packs are nat­ural solu­tion of pain ther­apy and can go from freezer to microwave and back over and over again.

Nature Cre­ation® Com­mit­ment to Qual­ity & Values

The ideal design of Nature Cre­ation® prod­ucts is to pro­vide nat­ural sooth­ing ther­apy in the com­fort of your daily life. Through out the years, we had many com­pli­ments and sug­ges­tions on what to expect and how to improve the designs and the exe­cu­tion of our products.

We did all the researches and exper­i­ments, which finally came out in details as followed:

  • Per­fect Bal­anced of Blended For­mula from 9 Essen­tial Nat­ural Herbs

Unlike the pre­vi­ous blend, the new blend con­tains smaller par­ti­cles of high qual­ity nat­ural herbs. They will not harsh or absurd the skins, which allow the users to put the packs on almost any parts of the body or to walk com­fort­ably, while main­tain the heat and cold effect on the prod­uct. The hand-selected herbs include Chamomile, Cin­na­mon, Lemon grass, Pep­per­mint, Rose­mary, Spearmint, White Wil­low, Yarrow, Yellow-Dock Root. In addi­tion, we add Flax Seed and Wheat as the heat­ing and cool­ing ele­ments to the blends.

  • Extended & Improved Sewing Methods

Dura­bil­ity and com­fort are two main rea­sons of this improve­ment. We exper­i­mented exten­sively with var­i­ous durable, but soft mate­ri­als for the inner sole, padding, and outer fab­rics. Yet, we always put the pri­or­ity of com­fort to the users. As the final designs revealed, we dis­cov­ered new method of sewing pat­terns to strengthen the joints and com­bined to bet­ter fab­rics, which even­tu­ally improved the users’ expe­ri­ences of excel­lent heat­ing & cool­ing effects. This new multi lay­ers Zigzag sewing pat­terns and new fab­rics will guar­an­tee to improve the dura­bil­ity of all Nature Cre­ation® products.

  • Easy Open­ing and Sealed of Pro­tec­tive Covers

It is now eas­ier to remove or replace the pro­tec­tive cov­ers onto the packs. The improved design of the pro­tec­tive cov­ers extends the flex­i­bil­ity, while the new sewing sys­tems allow the cov­ers to open wider to take-in & out of the packs easily

  • Col­ors of Synergy

The thicker, but soft outer fab­rics will enhance the dura­bil­ity & com­fort, yet they match the mar­ble col­ors of other Nature Cre­ation® prod­ucts. Now, you can use the com­plete sets of Nature Cre­ation® col­lec­tions and be in har­mony of per­fect syn­ergy with your favorite colors.

 

  • 1-Year Crafts­man­ship Warranty

We are con­fi­dent to the qual­ity, com­fort and sooth­ing ther­apy of our new & improved prod­ucts, which we back it up with 1-year crafts­man­ship war­ranty. If you find any work­man­ship defects or issues within the first year of pur­chase, we will replace your prod­ucts and extend the war­ranty on the replace­ment for an addi­tional 1-year.

Knee Pains — Suggestion of Remedies

March 10th, 2010
Knee Pain

Knee Pain

Knee pain is an extremely com­mon com­plaint, and there are many causes. It is impor­tant to make an accu­rate diag­no­sis of the cause of your symp­toms so that appro­pri­ate treat­ment can be directed at the cause. If you have knee pain, some com­mon causes include:

* Arthri­tis
Arthri­tis is among the most com­mon causes of knee pain, and there are many treat­ments available.

* Lig­a­ment Injuries
Lig­a­ment injuries com­monly occur dur­ing ath­letic activ­i­ties and can cause dis­com­fort and insta­bil­ity.
o Ante­rior Cru­ci­ate Lig­a­ment (ACL) Injury
o Pos­te­rior Cru­ci­ate Lig­a­ment (PCL) Injury
o Medial Col­lat­eral Lig­a­ment (MCL) Injury

* Car­ti­lage Injuries | Menis­cal Tear
Car­ti­lage tears are seen in young and old patients alike, and are also an extremely com­mon cause of knee pain.

* Patel­lar Ten­donitis
Ten­donitis around the joint is most com­monly of the patel­lar ten­don, the large ten­don over the front of the knee.

* Chon­dro­ma­la­cia Patella
Chon­dro­ma­la­cia causes knee pain under the kneecap and is due to soft­en­ing of the

knee-effusion

knee-effusion

car­ti­lage. It is most com­mon in younger patients (15–35 years old).

* Dis­lo­cat­ing Kneecap
A dis­lo­cat­ing kneecap causes acute symp­toms dur­ing the dis­lo­ca­tion, but can also lead to chronic knee pain.

* Baker’s Cyst
A Baker’s cyst is swelling in the back of the joint, and is usu­ally a sign of another under­ly­ing prob­lem such as a menis­cus tear.

* Bur­si­tis
The most com­mon bursa affected around the joint is just above the kneecap. This is most com­mon in peo­ple who kneel for work, such as gar­den­ers or carpetlayers.

* Plica Syn­drome
Plica syn­drome is an uncom­mon cause of knee pain, and can be dif­fi­cult to diag­nose. The diag­no­sis is usu­ally made at the time of arthroscopy.

* Osgood-Schlatter Dis­ease
Osgood-Schlatter dis­ease is a con­di­tion seen in ado­les­cents and is due to irri­ta­tion of the growth plate just at the front of the joint.

* Osteo­chon­dri­tis Dis­se­cans
Osteo­chon­dri­tis dis­se­cans (OCD) is another con­di­tion seen in ado­les­cents due to the growth of the bone around the joint.

* Gout
Gout is an uncom­mon cause of knee pain. How­ever, in patients who have a diag­no­sis of gout, it must be con­sid­ered as a cause for new onset knee pain.

Treat­ments for Knee Pain
Treat­ment of knee pain depends entirely on the cause of the prob­lem. There­fore, it is of utmost impor­tance that you under­stand the cause of your symp­toms before embark­ing on a treat­ment pro­gram. If you are unsure of your diag­no­sis, or the sever­ity of your con­di­tion, you should seek med­ical advice before begin­ning any treat­ment plan.

Some com­mon treat­ments for knee pain are listed here. Not all of these treat­ments are appro­pri­ate for every con­di­tion, but they may be help­ful in your situation.

* Rest: The first treat­ment for most com­mon con­di­tions that cause knee pain is to rest the joint, and allow the acute inflam­ma­tion to sub­side. Often this is the only step needed to relieve knee pain. If the symp­toms are severe, crutches may be help­ful as well.

Nature Cre­ation Knee Wrap

* Cold and Heat Appli­ca­tion: Nature Cre­ation Hot & Cold herbal packs are among the most com­monly used treat­ments for knee pain. So which one is the right one to use, ice or heat? And how long should the ice or heat treat­ments last? Click the fol­low­ing link: Heat or Cold, which Treat­ment is to use.

* Stretch­ing: Stretch­ing the mus­cles and ten­dons that sur­round the joint can help with some causes of knee pain. A good rou­tine should be estab­lished, and fol­low­ing some spe­cific sug­ges­tions will help you on your way.

* Phys­i­cal Ther­apy: Phys­i­cal ther­apy is an impor­tant aspect of treat­ment of almost all ortho­pe­dic con­di­tions. Phys­i­cal ther­a­pists use dif­fer­ent tech­niques to increase strength, regain mobil­ity, and help return patients to their pre-injury level of activity.

* Anti-Inflammatory Med­ica­tion: Non­s­teroidal anti-inflammatory med­ica­tions, com­monly referred to as NSAIDs, are some of the most com­monly pre­scribed med­ica­tions, espe­cially for patients with knee pain caused by prob­lems such as arthri­tis, bur­si­tis, and tendonitis.

* Cor­ti­sone injec­tions: Cor­ti­sone is a pow­er­ful med­ica­tion that treats inflam­ma­tion, and inflam­ma­tion is a com­mon prob­lem in patients with knee pain. Dis­cuss with your doc­tor the pos­si­ble ben­e­fits of a cor­ti­sone injec­tion for your condition.

What is Herbal Pack?

June 19th, 2009

treatementsIntro­duc­tion:

There are many ques­tions won­der­ing on what and how herbal packs work.  Is it the heat or cool­ing effects on the appli­ca­tion caused the heal­ing or the actual nat­ural ingre­di­ents inside the pack are the sooth­ing ele­ments to the pains?

If the heat or cool­ing ele­ments are the essence, why do we have to pay such a price for the prod­ucts?  Are the scents really impor­tant dur­ing treatments?

What is Herbal Pack?

Herbal pack is a prod­uct which is filled with nat­ural herbs and pur­posely design to pro­vide pain relief and ele­vate dis­com­fort due to typ­i­cal mus­cle stiff­ness.  Depend­ing on the man­u­fac­tur­ers, the fill­ing ingre­di­ents and ratio com­po­si­tion of the herbs may vary from one to oth­ers.  There is no offi­cial guide­lines on this mat­ter and is not being reviewed by FDA or other inter­na­tional drug/ med­ical institutes.

There are hun­dreds or prob­a­bly thou­sands of dif­fer­ent designs, shape, and fill­ing ingre­di­ents of this prod­uct.  Cer­tain design may serve spe­cific loca­tion of your body, while the rec­tan­gu­lar pil­low shape are com­monly per­ceived as uni­ver­sal product.

How to choose the good one?

  1. Con­sider the condition(s) that you wish to treat. Herbal packs come in a vari­ety of sizes and shapes includ­ing those designed for the face/eyes, shoul­ders and neck, and larger areas such as the back or stomach.
  2. Learn the fill­ing prop­er­ties of dif­fer­ent herbs for max­i­mum ben­e­fit.  Do not just judge the prod­ucts  sim­ply by the fra­grances that you enjoy. A sam­ple of herbs designed to relax mus­cles or reduce inflam­ma­tion include chamomile, laven­der, pep­per­mint and cin­na­mon.  It is also essen­tial to know if there are heat­ing ele­ment on the blends, such as wheat & flax seeds.  Pep­per­mint & spearmint are another pop­u­lar choice that may be an addi­tional ben­e­fit to sinus conditions.
  3. Look for 100 per­cent nat­ural ingre­di­ents in an aro­mather­apy herbal pack. Nat­ural ingre­di­ents should offer supe­rior aro­mather­apy ben­e­fits and often bet­ter heat retention.
  4. Find an herbal pack that offers a remov­able cover. You may find the ben­e­fits of easy clean­ing upon usages or shar­ing the packs with oth­ers.  Also,natural packs are prone to inter­nal and exter­nal mold and mildew growth.  There­fore, you have to dili­gently store the packs in the  freezer inside the sealed plas­tic bag.
  5. Iden­tify the prod­uct claim with regards to heat reten­tion, which should be at least 30 min­utes for best results. Opti­mally, look for herbal packs which con­tain flax seeds and wheat as the main filler. Flax seeds and wheat are reputed to have supe­rior heat reten­tion over rice/ corn and most other fillers. The excep­tion is facial packs, which require more com­fort and cool­ing therapy.
  6. Look for designs for your spe­cific are of treat­ments.  They have to be com­fort­able, easy to use and covenience.

What are the uses of herbal pack?

It will gen­tly help in reliev­ing pain, stiff­ness, and ten­sion. If you have pain or dis­com­fort from stress or sinus prob­lems then you have to try one of these. The pur­pose of these herbal packs is to con­cen­trate the heal­ing effects by com­bin­ing heat­ing and/ or cool­ing effects on spe­cific parts of the body.

Can it really work?

Accord­ing to Vert Mooney, MD. Heat ther­apy appli­ca­tion can help pro­vide lower back pain relief through sev­eral mechanisms:

  • Heat ther­apy dilates the blood ves­sels of the mus­cles sur­round­ing the lum­bar spine. This process increases the flow of oxy­gen and nutri­ents to the mus­cles, help­ing to heal the dam­aged tissue.
  • Heat stim­u­lates the sen­sory recep­tors in the skin, which means that apply­ing heat to the lower back will decrease trans­mis­sions of pain sig­nals to the brain and par­tially relieve the discomfort.
  • Heat appli­ca­tion facil­i­tates stretch­ing the soft tis­sues around the spine, includ­ing mus­cles, con­nec­tive tis­sue, and adhe­sions. Con­se­quently, with heat ther­apy, there will be a decrease in stiff­ness as well as injury, with an increase in flex­i­bil­ity and over­all feel­ing of com­fort. Flex­i­bil­ity is very impor­tant for a healthy back.

Ok, We know that heat ther­apy can relief pain, stiff­ness and pain. So what are the ben­e­fits using herbal pack then other method such as massage?giftset21

Just 2 rea­sons. One is easy to do. You can put the herbal pack while sleep­ing or while at work or in the car. And the other one is cheaper than tak­ing a pro­fes­sional massage.

Tips and Warn­ings when buy­ing Aro­mather­apy Herb Pack

  • Look for an aro­mather­apy herbal pack that serves dou­ble duty as an ice pack if cold ther­apy is needed.
  • Be cau­tious when tak­ing a heated aro­mather­apy herbal pack out of the microwave and avoid overheating.

How to use it to get the max­i­mum benefit?

You should check the tem­per­a­ture. It should be warm enough to relief your pain but don’t get your skin burn­ing! You can use enough insu­la­tion in between.

The longer the prod­ucts applied is the bet­ter. For a very minor treat­ment you can use for 15 to 20 min­utes. But for more intense injury you can use longer from 30 min­utes to 2 hours.

A spe­cific type of prod­ucts may feel bet­ter for one per­son than for another, It’s bet­ter for you to fig­ure it out your­self which one works best.

Avoid aro­mather­apy herb pack when you have fol­low­ing disease.

Please note that herbal pack should not be used in cer­tain cir­cum­stances. For exam­ple, if area is swollen or bruised, heat should not be used. Heat appli­ca­tion is also not suit­able in the fol­low­ing cases:

  • Der­mati­tis
  • Deep vein thrombosis
  • Dia­betes
  • Periph­eral vas­cu­lar disease
  • Open wound
  • Severe cog­ni­tive impairment

Patients should con­sult doc­tors if they have heart dis­ease or hypertension.

Faster Pain Relief with Natural Hot & Cold Herbal Packs

April 28th, 2009

spinepack

If you’re nurs­ing limb or joint prob­lems rang­ing from sports injuries to arthri­tis, con­ven­tional flat hot or cold packs miss the mark — lit­er­ally.  They pro­vide only par­tial cov­er­age of the trau­ma­tized area because of their rec­tan­gu­lar con­struc­tion and inabil­ity to bend when frozen.
New Herb Pack Ther­apy from Nature Cre­ation con­quers those flaws with a patented com­fort design that com­pletely encir­cles the area with heat or cold for faster and bet­ter treatment.

Nature Cre­ation is a man­u­fac­ture of fam­ily of reusable herbal pack sleeves that roll over the wrist, elbow, knee, thigh or other body part through a cen­ter open­ing.  These inno­v­a­tive packs wrap the limb or joint in a flex­i­ble, cushion-like cylin­der that stays in posi­tion with­out straps, wraps, ties or hold­ing for rapid hands-free use.

The result­ing 360-degree cov­er­age allows the entire cir­cum­fer­ence of the injured area to be treated at one time instead of in stages as required with a flat pack. The pro­pri­etary gel fill­ing and
polyurethane outer film stay soft when frozen or heated to allow the pack to mold to the body, ensur­ing deep hot or cold pen­e­tra­tion of soft tis­sues. Together, these fea­tures reduce treat­ment
time, pro­vide faster pain relief, keep swelling to a min­i­mum, and increase over­all effectiveness.

Used hot, the Nature Cre­ation herbal packs pro­vide sooth­ing surround-the-limb relief for arthri­tis, carpal tun­nel syn­drome, mus­cle aches, post-operative pain and more. They heat in the microwave in about one minute or two, and their abil­ity to be used repeat­edly can save hun­dreds of dol­lars over expen­sive one-time-use hot packs.

Used cold, Nature Cre­ation herb packs pro­vide first aid for acute soft tis­sue injuries, ten­nis elbow and other con­di­tions that require cold appli­ca­tions to com­bat swelling, pain and bruis­ing. The insu­lat­ing pro­tec­tive cover solu­tion that comes with each pack to pro­tect the skin from extreme tem­per­a­tures also sup­plies slight com­pres­sion, allow­ing the herbs to address two of the four steps in the RICE (rest, ice, com­pres­sion, ele­va­tion) method of injury treatment.

Nature Cre­ation Hot/Cold Ther­apy herbal packs are toxic-free, nat­ural and can go from freezer to microwave and back over and over again. The Nature Cre­ation herbal packs are avail­able in var­i­ous shape and col­ors for and sell for $19.95 to $74.95 at www.naturecreation.com.
