Perineal Therapy Compress

1 x Hot and cold postpartum perineal therapy pack

Two covers included so it can be used while a cover is being washed. Snaps around the bottom to securely fit in underwear. Using the hot compress prior to the delivery can decrease the chance of tears and ruptures during delivery. Convenient to use right out of the freezer (cold) or microwave (hot). Compress can also be used for relief after vulval surgery.

Hot

• Always heat the compress without the cover
• Microwave:
  • Heat in the microwave at 900 watts for a maximum of 20 seconds. Every microwave is different so in case the compress is not yet warm enough, heat up the compress in 5 seconds increments. However, stop before the compress begins to puff
  • Knead the compress slowly to evenly distribute the warm pearls
• Hot water
  • Place the compress in warm (not boiling!) water for 3 to 5 minutes, with the heat source turned off
• Always use the warm compress with the cover on to protect the skin
• Do not use the compresses for more than 20 consecutive minutes and do not use more than 6 hours per day in total. Wait for a minimum of 1 hour between each use. Using the compress for too long or too frequently can cause injuries such as heat allergy or burns

Cold

• Place compress in the freezer for at least two hours before use without the cover.
• Always use the cold compress with the cover on to protect the skin

Clean the compress after each use with mild soap and a damp cloth or disinfect with isopropyl alcohol (70%). Covers can be washed at 30℃.

Store in a cool, dry place out of the sun.
