It may take a few goes to get it right.\nAlways heat pack from room temperature - never from frozen.\nMicrowave the gel pack ONLY - never the fabric, cover or strap.\nMonitor whilst heating - If the pack swells, turn off the microwave immediately and wait for swelling to subside.\nPlace the gel pack flat on the microwave turntable, close the door and heat for 20 seconds on HIGH.\nRemove the gel pack USING AN OVEN GLOVE OR TOWEL and test the temperature.\nIf the edges are warm and the middle cold, move the gel around inside the pack to distribute the heat.\nRe-Flatten and return to the microwave for another 10-20 seconds.\nAlways keep an eye on it at all times.\nRepeat above steps until desired heat is achieved.\nOnce the pack is sufficiently warm, wrap it in a towel or place it in a cover (if available) and lay it over the part of your body that needs the heat.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWarnings\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease pay close attention to these points.\n\nDon’t heat the pack for more than 10-20 seconds at a time.\nThe plastic may melt at the edges if heated too aggressively.\nShort bursts are best.\nIn the unlikely event that you damage the pack, allow the gel to cool completely before attempting to clean it up.\nNote the gel is 100% non-toxic.\nAlways handle a HOT pack through a towel, glove or cover and do not apply a HOT pack directly to the skin without protection.\nWhen using do not put weight on the pack by sitting on the gel pack.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BodyAssist","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46047509217466,"sku":"8004817","price":32.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/8762\/4890\/files\/MP-1-800_25fcf460-ab0d-4075-a13b-deb9db950755.jpg?v=1782317482","url":"https:\/\/wombatpharmacy.com.au\/products\/bodyassist-deluxe-gel-pack-with-strap-and-bag-one-size","provider":"Wombat Pharmacy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
