Place your cherry pit pillow in the microwave for a maximum of 2 minutes.You will need to experiment on the length of heating time by adding 10-20 seconds at a time since all microwaves are different. Do not overheat as cherry pits will burn. The heat generally lasts 20-30 minutes. If you feel you need more time, simply reheat the pack.
Cold Therapy:
Place in the freezer in a sealed plastic bag for a few hours. If the cherry pit pillow has been stored in the freezer and you need it hot, it can be laid out to thaw for a bit or carefully defrosted in the microwave.
How to wash it:
It can be washed (in a pillow case or laundry bag) on the gentle cycle in the washing machine. We recommend putting it in with a load of laundry fi rst in the washer then right into the dryer. Be sure your cherry pit pillow is thoroughly dry before you store it.
