How Does the Hottie Help to Relieve Aches and Pains?
Heat therapy is a non-invasive, non-expensive, drug-free way of relieving aches and pains. It works by increasing the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the site of pain to help heal damage tissue, decreasing stiffness. The heat reduces the transmission of pain signals and improves flexibility and overall feeling of comfort.
What Materials Is the Hottie Made From?
The Fleece-Cover Micro-Hottie is composed of two parts: a unique, patented heat pack and a super-cosy lambswool-feel acrylic fleece cover. Handmade to achieve a close weave, this snug cover acts as an insulator to keep your Micro-Hottie warmer for longer. The cover is also removable and machine washable for maximum cleanliness and comfort.

How Long Should I Heat My Hottie For?
The length of time you should heat your Hottie for depends on whether it has been recently heated. As it is better to heat them from cold, many people have two Hotties inserts and alternate their use.
How Does the Hottie Work?
Hotties are thermal heat packs containing plant based material and water, which warms up when microwaved. As there are no water currents within the heat pack the transfer of energy from the centre of the pack to the outside takes longer, meaning it stays warmer for longer.
Can I Buy Replacement Hotties Thermal Inserts?
Yes, you can. You can add the Hotties Replacement Thermal Inserts to your order by selecting them with the drop-down menu at the top of the page.
Is the Hottie Safe to Use?
Yes, the Hottie is much safer than similar products. As Hottie contains no gels or seeds it will not explode or burst violently if over heated. The Replacement Packs are designed for use with Hottie branded covers or hot water bottle covers and should not be used on their own as this can lead to injury and burns.
Who Can Safely Use the Micro Hottie?
Most people can safely use the Microwavable Hottie however if you suffer from Diabetes or are otherwise insensitive to heat then consult a doctor before use.
Can I Wash My Hotties Cover?
To keep your Hotties cover clean and fresh, you can machine wash it whenever necessary. Simply place it on a cool-temperature wash (max. 40°C) with similarly coloured clothing.
