MediBeads Moist Heat Therapy

Dry heating pads pull moisture from the skin; MediBeads do the opposite. Each wrap is filled with patented beads that draw humidity from the surrounding air and release it as clean, penetrating moist heat when microwaved — no water to add, no gels, no cords. For anyone managing arthritis flares, muscle strain, menstrual cramps, or stiff joints, that moist warmth reaches deeper and soothes longer than dry heat alone, all in about a minute of prep.

The MediBeads Moist Heat Microwave Heating Pad (12 x 16 in.) is the large soft-pack option, ideal for broad areas like the back, shoulders, or abdomen where you want generous, even coverage. When you need heat that stays put, the MediBeads Therapy Wrap (7 x 14 in.) contours around a neck, wrist, elbow, or knee and can be secured in place so you can keep moving during treatment. Both are reusable, latex-free, and washable, making them a practical long-term alternative to disposable heat products.

Using them is straightforward: microwave for the recommended time, test the temperature, and apply for 15 to 20 minutes. The beads reactivate again and again — there's nothing to refill or replace — and the fabric covers are designed to hold up to repeated laundering. Because the moisture comes from the air rather than a soaked pad, there's no dripping or damp mess afterward.

MediBeads suit both home use and clinical settings where reliable, repeatable moist heat matters. Pair them with cold therapy for a complete regimen, or explore related recovery tools in our Hot & Cold Therapy collection and the broader Physical Therapy & Rehab category.
