FAQs

How do I use a cherry stone thermal pillow?

The cherry stone thermal pillow can be either be warmed in the microwave for 60 seconds at 600W setting or alternatively, for 8-10 minutes in the oven (wrapped in foil) on a low heat (100-120°C or 215-250 Fahrenheit).

For cold relief, place the thermal pillow in a freezer or refrigerator for at least half an hour before using.

When the thermal pillow reaches your desired temperature, place directly on the area of the body in need of pain relief. Use with caution as the cherry stones can get hot.

How do you wash a reusable pad?

After each use, reusable pads should be soaked your in room temperature water for 30 mins for easy washing as soon as possible. Do not soak it in hot water as it can set the stains. Then, wash and rinse the pad under running water until the water runs clear. Reusable pads can then be hand washed with a mild soap or machine wash it at below 40° Celsius.


After washing, adjust the pad back into shape to avoid shrinkage and then dry it on the clothesline in full sunlight or tumble dry on low heat. Store the pad in a clean and dry place ready for the next use.

How long does a reusable pad last?

Reusable pads typically last for between 3–5 years depending on the frequency of use. This is equivalent to approximately 75–100 washes.

Can you wash a cherry stone thermal pillow?

Yes! The cherry stone thermal pillow can be washed in a washing machine at 30°C or 90 Fahrenheit without detergent. Place the pillow in a wash bag and wash with similarly coloured items on a delicate wash cycle.

To dry, either place the pillow on or near a radiator, air dry outside or tumble dry on low heat with other clothes.

How often should you change a reusable pad?

Depending on how heavy your period is will affect how often a pad should be changed. We recommend changing 4 to 6 hours, as needed, depending on your flow.

How to dispose of Natracare pads?

Natracare pads are commercially compostable to EN 13432 where facilities exist. It's also possible to compost our pads at home. If you don’t have a compost bin, pads should be disposed of with your regular waste.
