Aromatherapy pillows are a convenient way to apply essential oils to the face without drying the skin. Our aromatherapy pillows are made in the USA from pre-shrunk, color fast, imported, hand made, 100% cotton batik fabric. Use pillow for aromatherapy application or as a warm-cool sinus pack. Each aromatherapy pillow is filled with 8 ounces of brown organic flax seed -- not plant materials, such as dried flowers or twigs, which are lumpy and lose their fragrance quickly. Aromatherapy optional; some assembly is required. One or two 0.9 ml glass perfume vials of essential oils are included to keep the oils fresh until you're ready to use them (see application), in the pillow, in the bath, or to scent you house. The cut out for the nose, hook & loop side opening, and zig-zag top stitching make our aromatherapy pillows superior and more expensive to manufacture than most. We designed the pattern; sorry, the pattern is not for sale. Free shipping: Cont US, AK, HI, PR, APO/FPO, US protectorates & Canada. If you live in a country where, based on the weight, the shipping cost is prohibitive, we will deduct $5 / see shipping promotion, or mail you the pillow cases so that you can buy the seed locally.

Fabric: Is it Organic? 
The hand made batik fabric that we use is seasonal, meaning that the prints change frequently. And although the white cotton fabric used to make the batik print is not certified oganic, because the coth was boiled in scalding hot water 3 to 5 times to set the colors and remove the wax, if there was any pesticide used to grow the cotton, it is unlikely that there is any remaining.

Swatches
If you need fabric swatches before ordering, contact us. To see our current fabric selection made up, see spa kits catalog. Custom batik fabric with your logo, print or color scheme. Example: ribbons design. Minimum: 50 yards. Availability: 6 months. Need it faster? See embroidery.

Aromatherapy Application
Remove the flax seed from the pilllow and place it into a sealed container. A tightly capped glass jar is best. Open one of the vials provided. Add 10 drops (half of the vial) of Just Relax... ® or Stress Relief ® aromatherapy into the seeds. Use the entire vial of Deep Sleep ®. Allow the oil to penetrate into the seeds for 10 to 12 hours (overnigth). Keep out of direct sunlight, away from heat. Shake the jar several times so that the oil will absorb evenly into the seeds; that way the fabric will not be stained. Using a large funnel, replace the seeds into the pillow. If you don’t have a funnel, roll up a piece of clean typing paper. To refresh the pillow with more oil, follow these simple instructions again. To change the oil blend, buy brown flax seeds (not golden, as they're too soft), and repeat the process.

What is Batik?
Batik fabric is an art form that is widely-recognized in India, Indonesia, Africa and parts of Egypt. Translated the word means "drawing with wax" and "tiny dots." Batik is a labor-intensive, hand-dying process. There are three steps: (1) a wax resist is applied to the fabric; the wax design is hand-stenciled or hand-stamped; (2) the fabric is dyed; (3) the wax is removed by boiling the fabric in hot water. If the design is intricate and there are many colors, more than one process is used, and there are several dying steps. Because the fabric is boiled to melt the wax, hand-dyed fabric is pre-shrunk. When salt is used as the resist instead of wax, the fabric may have vivid bursts of color, a watercolor effect, or stripes. We use 100% cotton batik fabric from Indonesia and India that have loose, irregular patterns and tiny dots. We like to imagine that the decorative fabric carries the life force energy or good vibrations of the spiritual people (primarily men) from India and Bali who make it. For information about the type of batik we use, not our suppliers, please contact us.

Why Cotton?
We use only 100% cotton because it's a natural fiber, soft to the touch, it's washable and very durable. Most aromatherapy pillows (not ours) are made of silk or rayon. We think they look flimsy, meaning that they don't hold their shape and/or they shrink when washed -- if they're washable at all, which is unlikely. Many cotton eye pillows are made of coarse, inexpensive cotton, used for making patchwork quilts. Some have unattractive patterns that are either too cute or too busy / men won't use them, and colors that are too bright or patterns that are too busy / not restful. Quilting fabric, most of which is not imported, is relatively inexpensive -- about half the price of imported hand-dyed cotton. The weave is too loose, and it is scratchy against the face. With some (but not all) of our dark batik eye pillows, because more dying time is needed to create a dark print from white cloth, the fabric may be stiff (not scratchy). If you want our dark pillows to be softer, wash them first. See washing instructions.

Washing Instructions
Wash the pillow separately. Remove the seeds first. Use a mild soap without bleach for delicate fabrics. Use cold, warm or hot water; the fabric is pre-shrunk. Air dry; iron if necessary.
 
Warm or Cool Application
For soothing warmth applied to the face, remove the pillow from the reusable poly bag. Heat the pillow in the microwave for 30 seconds or less. Do not overheat seeds. For soothing moist heat, lightly spray mist the pillow with water before heating. Try pillow as a cool pack to relieve pain and reduce swelling. Put pillow into plastic freezer bag. Place into freezer for 20 to 30 minutes. Remove pillow from freezer bag; place on your face. It should be comfortable, not ice cold.

Storage
Store pillow in our reusable moisture barrier / vapor barrier polypropylene bag, tape closed, or put into clean jar. Do not store pillow with essential oils in plastic food bags. Oils will break down the plastic over time. Keep seeds away from sunlight, heat and moisture, or they will sprout.

WARNING

Our Just Relax... ® and Deep Sleep ® aromatherapy / essential oil formulas should not be used by pregnant women. Do not use aromatherapy if you are nursing. Do not use our aromatherapy pillows with children or allow your children to play with our pillows; they could choke on the seeds. If they ingest the aromatherapy, flush several times with water. Not intended to prevent, treat or cure any illness or health condition.
