How to use the cherry pit pillow correctly Plus
The cherry pit pillow serves as a natural heat pad and can provide soothing warmth for period pain, tension, abdominal pain, or cold feet. Simply warm it according to the instructions, place it on the affected body part, and relax.
How do I heat the cherry pit pillow? Plus
The heat pad can be brought to the right temperature in both the microwave and the oven: Microwave: max. 300 watts for a maximum of 2 minutes. Preheated oven: max. 110 °C for up to 5 minutes. Caution: Do not overheat and always check the temperature before applying – especially for children. Do not leave the pillow unattended while heating.
The pillow is not warm enough yet – can I heat it longer? Plus
Our time and wattage specifications are set so that the pillow reliably reaches a comfortable minimum temperature. Since microwaves can differ in their performance, it may be necessary to carefully extend the heating time. If more warmth is desired, reheat the pillow under supervision in 15-second intervals at the specified wattage. After heating, briefly shake the pillow so that the warmth is evenly distributed.
Is the cherry pit pillow also suitable for children? Plus
Yes, children from toddler age can safely use the pillow. It is handy, pleasant on the skin, and provides gentle warmth – perfect for stomach aches or cold hands. Always check the temperature before use. For babies, smaller pillows with grape seeds or flax seeds are recommended, as they conform better and are lighter.
What materials are used? Plus
The pillow is filled with carefully cleaned, dried cherry pits. The cover is made of 100% cotton and complies with OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 (60616412, certified by Cazitex N.V).
Can I wash the cherry pit pillow? Plus
No, please do not wash the pillow or put it in the dryer, as moisture would damage the cherry pits. To clean, simply wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth.
Where is the ELANEE heat pad produced? Plus
Production takes place in Germany in workshops for people with disabilities.
