Recent Testimonials:
"I lead an active life and sometimes suffer from strains and injuries. Before Hotteeze I was limited to hot water bottles and wheat bags. With Hotteeze patches I have mobile soothing warmth all day as one patch lasts 12 hours. I find Hotteeze fantastic- they're discreet, long-lasting and can go with me wherever I go." - Margaret, Retiree - Mandurah, WA, Australia
"I use Hotteeze when I'm out fishing at night. I have a Hotteeze patch on my chest and lower back and it keeps the chill off. I've found I've had less coughs and colds since using Hotteeze." - Andy Prinderville - Edgewater, WA, Australia
Hotteeze heat pads are perfect for those times when you need a steady supply of heat. Unlike a wheatbag or hot water bottle, which are bulky and visible, Hotteeze are discreet, portable and last a lot longer.
Use Hotteeze to comfort period pain, sports injuries and muscle aches. Take them outdoors or anywhere you feel the cold.
Benefits of Heat Therapy:
It's well documented that heat relieves pain. Historically, heat has been a natural remedy used both to relieve pain and enhance the recovery process. Using heat to calm tissues suffering from long-term spasm or irritation, is an easy way to increase flexibility, range of motion and to promote increased circulation to speed the healing process.
Please note that heat should not be used on areas of swelling and bruising.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How does a Hotteeze work?
A. Each Hotteeze heat pad contains iron powder, water, vermiculite, carbon and salt. When you open a Hotteeze, the iron oxidizes with the air, creating heat. If you accidentally open it up, quickly seal it in a plastic bag to stop the oxidization process.
Q. Why can't I wear it directly on my skin?
A. You might burn yourself. Hotteeze will feel cozy at first, but after a while it will heat right up without you noticing and might feel too hot. You will probably start to sweat too, in which case the pad will slip off and you won't get your 12 hours of guaranteed heat.
Q. Why shouldn't I wear it to bed?
A. If you fall asleep wearing a Hotteeze, you cannot properly monitor your comfort level. The heat might sneak up on you and cause a burn.
Q. Are they bad for the environment?
A. Hotteeze contain natural ingredients which are biodegradable, so when they're done, you can throw them away guilt-free. Because they contain salt, we don't suggest you put them in the compost or empty them into a pot plant - just throw them away in the rubbish bin.
Q. Where do they come from?
A. Hotteeze were invented by the Japanese and are manufactured in Japan. Your Japanese friends will know them as KAIRO. They are very popular and are recommended for various remedies. For example, if you catch a cold, a Japanese person will recommend that you stick a Hotteeze over your abdomen to help you recover more quickly.
Q. What if I'm pregnant?
A. Whatever you do, do not put a Hotteeze near your abdomen, and check with your doctor
