How Recov Wrap Creates Moist Heat

Recov Wrap achieves moist heat through its carefully designed interior, a blend of clay beads and flax seeds. Here's the science behind it:

Flax Seeds – Flax seeds are hygroscopic, meaning they naturally hold and slowly release water vapor. When microwaved, they release this moisture along with heat, contributing to the moist component of the therapy.

Clay Beads – Naturally porous, clay beads retain a small amount of ambient moisture. When heated in a microwave, this moisture is released as gentle steam, creating a humid heating environment.

The combination of these materials means that when Recov Wrap is heated, it produces both warmth and moisture, the defining characteristic of moist heat therapy. Unlike simple dry heat packs, Recov Wrap provides penetrating, gentle, and sustained heat with a humid component, which has been shown to improve blood flow, relieve stiffness, and relax muscles more effectively.

Recov Wrap is not just a heat wrap. It is a science-backed moist heat therapy solution designed to provide effective, home-based relief that supports patient recovery and complements professional care.
