This microwavable heating pad designed to be comfortable when laying on top of it. It works well for the hip area, lower back, or upper back. It is also nice to drape over the knees, abdomen, or hips. The weight of it reminds me of the heavy aprons that are draped over you during an X-ray. The weight is approximately 3 pounds. The measurements are approximately 14 inches long by 11 inches wide. There are 3 sections in this pillow for the flaxseed. The fabric is Organic cotton duck canvas by Cloud9 Fabrics. These pillows are packaged in a clear biodegradable bag with heating instructions.
Most sellers who are offering "Organic Neck Pillows" only use Organic filling. Our pillow fabric is not only Organic cotton but also GOTS Organic cotton. Global Organic Textile Standard fabrics meet the highest standard for Organic textiles. GOTS Organic Cotton is a step above standard Organic cotton, because the dyes are also environmentally friendly.

- Cotton is grown in Organic soil with no pesticide sprays
- Warp fibers stabilized using double plying or non-toxic cornstarch
- Safe peroxide used for whitening
- No formaldehyde used in processing
- Low impact fiber reactive dying process or natural pigment with no heavy metals such as lead
