Microwavable Warming Glove, Reusable Hand Heating Pad, Blue

My mom has arthritis on her right fingers so it’s pretty painful for her to get through a day without pain relievers. Sometimes they don’t help at all. I was looking for some heating tool to keep her hand warm as she complained her hand always feels icy cold which worsens the pain on her fingers. I wanted something more eco friend (unlike heating pads) so I ordered this for her. She said it’s the best gift she’s ever received T-T. It only takes 90s in the microwave and is able to keep her whole hand and stomach warm for at least 10-min. She put her right hand inside and placed it on her stomach. She said there’s also some sort of calming herbs-liked scent after heating. And the pouch inside gets a little moist too. So her hand stays “hydrated” (not dry or itchy from the heat) and pain-manageable. Highly recommend!

I bought a MyCare Heat Therapy Glove because I shattered my wrist in October and had surgery to repair the extensive damage. They recommended in physical therapy that I heat my hand and wrist before doing exercises at home. I thought this would be easier than hooking up to a heating pad with an electrical cord so I bought one. It works great! Put it in the microwave for 1 minute 15 seconds and it is perfect for that purpose. I was visiting my parents for Thanksgiving and Dad (who just turned 96) got a chill after being outside and he complained about his hands getting cold so I heated it up and had him put one hand inside and rest it on the other hand. He warmed right up and asked me to buy one for him! My brother, who used to work in construction, heated it up for Dad the day after Dad received it and put it on his hand as he was walking over to Dad's chair... He never made it to Dad's chair. Instead he sat down with it covering a hand that had been hurt and operated on years ago - so Dad called me and asked me to order yet a third one so my brother would have one, too!

This is great for icing a wrist and hand after surgery. Not for heat. 5 stars for cold 0 stars for heat I bought two, one for hot which i planned to use before PT exercises and another for cold to use after exercises, The cold one worked great but after microwaving the second one as directed it smelled awful, like wet hay in a barn. I sent the second one back and went back to using a hot water bottle.

Update: Am changing my rating from a 3 to 5 stars. After putting this in the freezer a few times and using it more, I decided I like it more and my first review below was not a fair review.. the first few times I used it, it was too hot for the majority of the time it retained heat. It felt steamy. Maybe that had something to do with it being used for the first few times. I have tried it again and while it does get hot , it does not feel so steamy and I find it more comfortable, The heat seems to stay nice for about 10-12 minutes. Wish it would retain that temp for longer, but it is what it is.. I also realized that While not as hot as the inside the outside of the mitt gets hot enough ( that it can be placed over the other hand or another spot to give warmth and relief. So I will be keeping this mitt and and considering getting another so I can do both hands at once. So I do recommend this and it does give me some relief from the pain of carpal Tunnel and Arthritis. Also I do not think it smells bad.. Smells like any micro wave heating pad type thing. It is a natural smell of what it is filled with. I really wanted to love this.. It's made in the USA, it fit my smaller hand nicely, but I am disappointed. I don't normally have problems with hot. When company is visiting I have to turn the hot water heater down because it is set to high for anyone but me. My water in the kitchen gets so hot I like to hand wash some dishes just to run my aching hands through it. The hot really helps.. But this mitt gets too hot even for me. I switch my hands back and forth because for approx. the first 8 minutes after taking it out of the microwave it is just to hot for comfort.. Then it starts cooling down and there is maybe 3-4 minutes of perfect temp bliss and then it goes a little warm for a good amount of time. I suppose that most microwave gloves would be the same. This would be the perfect glove if it were electric and the temp could be controlled and kept at desired temp for a period of time with a liner that could be dampened for wet heat . the glove does seem to be decently made and if you just want a little warmth this will probably work for you. While it does have some weight I did not find it to be uncomfortable,

I purchased this for physical therapy on a finger. It works well to warm my hand for that purpose. However, after about three weeks it started losing the seeds in it. Now, when I remove my hand from it, I have a half dozen or so seeds on my hand. I suspect there is an open seem on the inside but there's no way to get there. I would have returned it but my return window closed this past Saturday. I'll keep using it for now as it likely will take a while for the seed loss to affect its efficacy, but I will be hesitant to repurchase the same product.

This moist heat pack is amazing! It will help me a lot with my wrist therapy. I might add, the recyclable mailer was wide open and I'm surprised the heat pack didn't fall out.

Works well! Have to do physical therapy on my broken finger and this helps warm up my ligaments and joints

This mitt is weighted and the "beads" are segregated into lines so you don't have to swish them around to get the heat where you need it on your hand and fingers. I should have bought 2, dang it. Fit my hand perfectly and gave my arthritic fingers the warmth they needed. An aromatic scent would have been nice but thats not a deal breaker. The stitching is great and the material is nice and thick. Would definitely recommend.

Provides good heat for osteoarthritis of wrist.
