Better Sleep With A Lavender Scented Neck Wrap

By Elena McDowell


Most people suffer from sleeplessness at one time or another in their lives. Many choose not to use commercial or prescription solutions and instead select a lavender scented neck wrap. Lavender is a favorite because its aroma is so fragrant and therapeutic. The medicinal qualities of this plant work to relieve stress and relax muscles allowing sleep to come easier.

When selecting the style that suites you it is important to ensure that the weight and form is something you are comfortable with. It should not be so heavy that it weighs you down but should weigh enough to stay in place while you are using it. If you must constantly reposition it to get relief the effect is diminished considerably.

Texture and strength of the cover fabric make a big difference when creating these items. Many factories create them from cottons and flannels. These fabrics are both soft and strong but light enough to allow the aromas to emanate from the wrap. Others are made from velvet or fuzzy fabrics in the form of stuffed animals.

How long the aromas last is dependant on how often you use them and whether or not you store them in plastic when not in use. They can be renewed by using a replacement method appropriate for the product you purchased. These are usually very cost effective.

Some companies will supply you with the replacement items either at the time of purchase or by ordering them separately. These options include liquid essences that are sprayed onto the item and small packets of herbs and fragrances that you specify. The liquids offer the added advantage of being used for pillows or toys that are in the bedroom. This helps to sooth and relax all night long.

Flax seed fillers are considered the most desirable because of their make up. They are an oil based seed that does not dry out or degrade over time. They can be damaged if micro-waved for too long but as a whole they last longest. Another filler is long grain rice. It is commonly used by people who are creating their own special wraps.

It is important to follow the heating directions when microwaving. Even flax seed will get a burnt smell if heated for too long and the smell will be with you forever. When you are looking for a cooling wrap it is essential that you place it in a plastic bag so as not to get the seeds or rice wet. Excess moisture will damage the contents and dilute the aroma therapy effects. Do not attempt to use a conventional oven when heating your neck wrap.

A lavender scented neck wrap is a way to treat your pain and stress and not have to spend a lot of money on massages or therapeutic day spas. While using one you can continue with your daily routine and benefit from the soothing effects in your own home. These are also wonderful gifts for those you care about . Imagine having a totally stress free family with one simple gift.
