How To Choose A Lavender Scented Neck Wrap

By Helga Stokes


Many people suffer from neck and shoulder problems, whether as a result of physical injury or a medical condition. There are not many of us who do not experience some tension and stress in this area, even if we are not injured or ill. In all these cases, a lavender scented neck wrap helps to provide relief. Using such a product offers a simple therapeutic solution in the comfort of your own home. The scent is not only wonderful and soothing but offers many medicinal benefits as well. These wraps may also be heated or frozen for additional relief from pain and stress.

It is possible to buy these products from many online retailers. This enables you to compare the different products and their prices in the most convenient way. As with any product, opting for the cheapest one usually results in disappointment and it is better to go for the best quality affordable to you.

The fabrics used for the outer covers may be anything from velvet to soft fleece. It is important to think about comfort, ability to keep it clean and durability when choosing an outer cover. A machine washable cover is most convenient. The color and fabric chosen depends entirely on your personal preference and there is a wide variety of both fabrics and colors available from which to choose.

When considering the different shapes, you will want to select one that offers the most comfortable fit. One that conforms to the shape of the body probably offers the best fit. The fill should provide enough weight so that it stays right where you want it. It should not be so heavy that you are constantly aware of the weight and cannot wear it for any length of time.

The type of lavender used also makes a difference to your experience. Synthetic products do not offer the same therapeutic benefits and even the scent smells fake. Opting for natural ingredients, such as pure essential oil, offers the most benefits and there are many. It is not only an anti-inflammatory but helps to relieve tension in the muscles and stimulate circulation. Its calming and soothing qualities are well documented.

Flax seeds are often used as a filling. This is because they offer a suitable weight and they can be heated in the microwave. They retain this heat for some time, offering the necessary relief for aching muscles. This is of particular benefit for those who experience severe chills and aches in winter due to various medical conditions. Both the warmth and the scent released provide amazing relief and it is not long before muscles start to relax.

Another way of treating pain is with cold therapy. Wraps can be stored in the freezer in a plastic bag, ready for use when needed. Cold therapy slows circulation, reduces inflammation, pain and muscle spasms. It is particularly helpful for treating injuries obtained when playing sport.

Using a lavender scented neck wrap offers you the opportunity of treating yourself at home. This is an affordable option in comparison with going to a spa for a massage. You can wear it comfortably while going about your normal routine at home and experience great benefits at the same time. This product also makes a wonderful gift for a mother, daughter or a sister.
