It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions to ensure the hot pack is heated correctly and safely without causing damage or injury. Heating the hot pack in boiling water or a microwave oven may cause the pack to become too hot and cause burns. Striking, kneading or squeezing the package is not a safe or effective way to warm the pack.
