Product Description, Nexcare ColdHot Therapy products are gel-filled compresses with dual purpose: they can provide either flexible ice or soothing heat as a drug-free way to treat pain and inflammation locally. The non-toxic gel is encased in a strong, reliable plastic envelope, which is shaped like a horseshoe to leave the nipple area free and flexible enough to mould to your breast and sit comfortably inside your nursing bra. The compresses are hand washable and reusable, and are supplied with soft fabric protective covers. A great alternative to dripping ice packs or leaky hot water bottles, they can be cooled in the fridge or warmed up by placing in hot water. Cold therapy can be an effective way to relieve breast congestion and alleviate pain in the case of mastitis or inflammation; when used warm, the compresses can help to stimulate milk flow, unblock ducts and soothe the discomfort of engorgement. They may also be used as an aid to reduce post-operative swelling and discomfort following breast surgery: Please consult your doctor before purchasing for this purpose. This pack contains 2 x maternity compresses, each with its own soft fabric protective cover. Customers are advised to read the enclosed instructions carefully before using this product. Nexcare ColdHot Gel Compresses are also available in different formats for treating joints and other areas of the body. Nexcare and ColdHot are trademarks of 3M Company.
Box Contains,
Nexcare Coldhot Maternity Compress. A brilliant idea for nursing mothers which can be used either hot or cold and are fully re-usable too. The gel packs are shaped in a horseshoe shape to enable them to surround the breast around the nipple without actually irritating the nipple and then these are simply slipped inside the provided cotton covers to prevent any discomfort to the skin from either the hot or cold touching the skin directly. The gel packs are washable by simply washing them by hand and the cotton covers are machine washable. To heat the gel packs you simply submerge them into hot water for up to ten minutes and to cool them you store them in the fridge. You cannot microwave or freeze the gel packs in case they burst. The heat therapy is to help unblock milk ducts and also to stimulate milk flow whilst the cold therapy is to relieve breast swelling - so as another reviewer has said, no need for the old cabbage leaves anymore! whilst the heat and cold therapy is lovely and soothing i do find the gel packs a little bit heavy in my bra and they do take up a little bit of room so best to use in a bra that is not already tight fitting, however the benefits of these compresses far outweigh the slight 'heaviness discomfort'. My one other 'niggle' would be that only one pair of cotton covers are provided and a spare pair would have been much appreciated especially whilst waiting for the others to be washed and dried. I have had a look but can't see that nexcare are selling any spare covers separately so perhaps they may consider doing this?i actually had no idea nexcare existed before testing these maternity compresses and that they also do a whole range of other coldhot compresses and maternity belts etc. As a sufferer of arthritis and also currently pregnant with my second baby i shall be definitely checking these out as my old microwave wheat bags don't always help to relieve the swelling on my joints if i can't get them positioned correctly, whereas nexcare appear to do compresses with elasticated covers to attach direct to the joint. I am also booked in for a c-section and note that they do post partum support belts too so very happy to have discovered them.

Surprising!. I was not expecting this to work, as i thought it was a gimmick. I was wrong, and was really surprised the effect this had on the wife! she really liked the sensation, and it really helped her feel more comfortable!i recommend!!.
Work Really Well.. These work amazingly well and best of all they work amazingly well time and time again because they're reusable. They're horseshoe shaped for comfort and bring instant, soothing release. Or so i'm told. The missus highly recommends them anyway. .

Conclusion of Nexcare Coldhot Maternity Compress
Nexcare cold hot maternity compress is a product which i would happily recommend to any customer who suffers pain no matter if pregnant or not. Personally my favourite is the cold compress as i suffer from pain on my leg where my skin would get very hot and affects my skin further by making it very itchy. Within moments of setting this on my leg the pain and itching is soothed and the heat is reduced which means so much especially through the night and i am finding it hard to sleep because of the pain. The compress is easily heated by just placing the product without the cover on in a dish of hot water, therefore it will not over heat your skin and therefore you will be able to adjust the heat to your own preference. Never put this product in the microwave, i know there are products similar to this which can be heated this way but this is not one of them.
I would use the hot compress on my abdomen where i have adhesions due to a past operation and they seem to get very tight and sore, this product has become a real life saver in so many ways as it really does help me ease the daily pain and because it is not damaging in any way i can use the compresses throughout the day without damaging my skin. I love how the products have a little cotton pocket for covering them therefore the plastic coating is never touching your skin which might irritate your skin further. Whether pregnant or not this product is perfect to have in your first aid box as it will ease pain or even burns, they are the perfect shape for any woman who has suffers from mastitis especially when breastfeeding as there is nothing in the compress which will harm your child in anyway or even put your child off feeding which is the most important thing of all. Nexcare cold/hot maternity compress is a great purchase and one i would recommend to anyone who suffers from pain in anyway especially in those delicate parts of your body where the skin must be treated carefully. The gel packs are shaped in a horseshoe shape to enable them to surround the breast around the nipple without actually irritating the nipple and then these are simply slipped inside the provided cotton covers to prevent any discomfort to the skin from either the hot or cold touching the skin directly.
To heat the gel packs you simply submerge them into hot water for up to ten minutes and to cool them you store them in the fridge. Whilst the heat and cold therapy is lovely and soothing i do find the gel packs a little bit heavy in my bra and they do take up a little bit of room so best to use in a bra that is not already tight fitting, however the benefits of these compresses far outweigh the slight 'heaviness discomfort'.

Flexible so that it can be used cold or hot depending on your needs, it will provide the relief that nothing else can.
These are so easy to prepare, either by popping them in the fridge to make them cold or leaving them in warm water to make them hot, and the cotton covers they come with mean that they are comfortable to use. I have tried both hot and cold and they work very well, gradually releasing/absorbing the heat and thus inflammation/pain.
Very Useful. These are so easy to prepare, either by popping them in the fridge to make them cold or leaving them in warm water to make them hot, and the cotton covers they come with mean that they are comfortable to use. They're not just good for the advertised use, but also as compresses for other painful areas, such as aching joints and muscles. For example, they're well shaped to provide relief for painful knees. Definitely worth trying. .
Heavenly Relief Beyond Belief. Essential for the new mum, this product cannot be recommended highly enough! flexible so that it can be used cold or hot depending on your needs, it will provide the relief that nothing else can. Perfectly designed for the area in question, i have also found i can put them to good use for muscle strains and aches elsewhere so they are more flexible than i originally realised. Excellent quality product providing excellent relief. .
