Successful Weight Loss

Choosing A Lavender Scented Neck Wrap

By Helga Stokes


Neck and shoulder problems are among the most common physical ailments. In addition to physical injury, we carry a lot of stress and tension in these areas. A lavender scented neck wrap provides welcome relief, whether you are injured, have a medical condition or are just suffering from stress. These wraps can be heated in a microwave or chilled in a freezer for deeper relief. The wonderful scent combines aromatherapy and therapeutic treatments into one.

Online retailers offer these products and this gives you the opportunity to compare prices and styles effortlessly. It is worth reading reviews written by satisfied customers to find out more about a particular product. It is also worth buying the best quality you can afford as a cheaper knock-off will probably disappoint you.

A wide variety of fabrics are used for these products in many colors and patterns. Velvets and soft fleeces are popular because they are so comfortable against the skin. Selection will largely depend on your personal preference but remember that the appearance is not as important as other factors such as comfort, durability and ease of cleaning.

When considering which shape to choose, one with a comfortable fit is obviously best. It must be able to be well positioned so that it stays in place when you move about. The fill is also an important consideration as it cannot be too heavy making it uncomfortable to wear. One that is too lightweight is also a problem as it may shift around.

You also want to make sure that the best quality materials are used in the product. Lavender has a long list of medicinal properties such as offering relief from muscle tension as well as being an anti-inflammatory and circulatory stimulant. It also has a soothing and calming effect. However, these benefits are only experienced when natural products are used, such as the pure natural essential oil. Synthetic oil fragrances do not have the same benefits or scent.

Many of these wraps are filled with flax seeds as this provides a good weight and heats up well in a microwave, retaining this heat for long lasting relief for tired muscles. Many people experience severe aches and chills in winter from various conditions like arthritis. They benefit greatly from the constant heat released. The scent and warmth experienced are instantly relaxing and soon the muscles begin to feel looser and less painful.

These wraps may also be placed in the freezer if cold therapy is desired. To protect the fabric, it should be wrapped in a plastic bag. The cold helps to numb the muscles.

A lavender scented neck wrap provides a simple, easy way to feel better. Going for massages can be expensive. It can be worn comfortably while watching television and doing household chores. You have access to beneficial therapy in the comfort of your own home. One of these wraps also makes a great gift and a mom, sister, wife, girlfriend, daughter or aunt will all enjoy its benefits.
