How to Choose the Right Menstrual Heating Belt?

When suffering from painful periods or dysmenorrhea, applying localized heat to the lower abdomen is an effective natural remedy to relieve the cramps and spasms that occur each cycle. While we were used to (or resistant to) heating a hot water bottle, the menstrual heating belt is set to revolutionize our habits!

This belt provides a controlled, constant heat to the lower abdomen. This beneficial warmth relaxes the uterine muscles to reduce the spasms and cramps associated with menstruation. But that’s not all…

Physiologically, heat increases blood flow and releases endorphins, both actions that help limit the pain of dysmenorrhea.

Finally, heat reduces stress, a factor that can exacerbate menstrual pain. Less stress = less period pain.

And we all know the comforting effect of a nice hot bath…

Much more practical and safer than a hot water bottle (which also needs to be held constantly), the menstrual heating belt has been experiencing a real boom lately, but be careful with the quality! Here are the key points to consider when choosing a menstrual heating belt.

The 6 Criteria to Consider When Choosing the Best Menstrual Heating Belt

When menstrual pain strikes, we just want a quick, effective, and long-lasting solution to relieve it. A good heating belt for painful periods meets these criteria… But you need to choose it carefully! If you don’t want to be disappointed, make sure your menstrual heating belt is:

1. Quick and Effective: Instant Warmth!

You don’t want to wait 10 minutes to feel better. With a high-performance model, you can feel the warmth in just 5 seconds, and it provides a constant heat unlike a hot water bottle, which is very (too) hot at first and not hot enough after a few minutes. Plus, with the belt, you can even choose the intensity of the heat!

2. Practical and Easy to Use

No need to lie down anymore! A good menstrual heating belt should be able to follow you around. Unlike a hot water bottle, there’s no need for a microwave or kettle! The menstrual belt is ready to use with its included battery. Forget about multiple buttons and possible settings, ideally, you just need to press the ON button for immediate relief. Choose an adjustable one with an elastic band for better heat application, resulting in better comfort and effectiveness.

3. Safe and Durable

The menstrual heating belt must meet safety standards, with no risk of burns and it should not fail you when you need it most.
Choose one with a separate battery that clearly indicates the autonomy level with its lights. Another advantage of a separate battery is that you only need to replace the battery, not the entire product, when the battery eventually weakens (like with your mobile phone…). And a separate battery can be useful for other purposes as well.

4. Flexible and Discreet

The belt for menstrual pain should follow you in your daily life (work, outings, leisure…) without being noticeable. It should be thin enough to fit under your clothes, flexible enough to conform to your body, and especially silent when turned on!

5. Lightweight

Watch out for the final weight! A lightweight belt for menstrual pain will not only be easier to carry but also more comfortable to wear.

6. Multi-purpose

Ideally, the shape, size, and weight should allow it to conform to your body to relieve not only your abdomen but also your back, which often suffers from pain during menstruation. The belt should be designed to be easily worn on the abdomen or lower back.

That’s quite a few criteria…

• It will save you from numerous trips to the kettle or microwave. Its constant heat distribution, with the option to choose between three temperatures, will be appreciated for more severe period pain.
  
• Beyond periods, it can relieve lower back pain, stomach aches, or help you relax after a hard day!
  
  
• Some women feel anxious about their upcoming period due to the level of pain they experience. The menstrual heating belt can help reduce this anxiety. Embrace the relaxation and comfort provided by the warmth.

The Problem with Hot Water Bottles

While gel hot water bottles, water-filled hot water bottles, and grain-filled hot water bottles were our first choice until now, it’s clear that these systems have their drawbacks:

– The heat doesn’t last (and therefore the pain returns).

– The heat is not even: too hot at the beginning, not enough at the end.

– The water-filled hot water bottle can be quite heavy and really not discreet under clothes.

– Gel and grain hot water bottles require a microwave. But not everyone has one! And it’s ultimately more inconvenient than simply pressing an on/off button directly on the belt.

– Not to mention the risk of burns and leaking water bottles: who wants to completely change clothes once settled on the couch or in bed?

Not all menstrual heating belts are created equal. Here are the strengths of the Climsom Menstrual Heating Belt compared to other models available on the market:

THE CLIMSOM MENSTRUAL HEATING BELT	OTHER MENSTRUAL HEATING BELTS
External battery included so you don’t have to be attached to a USB port all day… Pouch on the belt for the battery: allows for hands-free use… Clever: the external battery can also charge your phone when you’re not using the belt!	The external battery is not provided, so the belt must be plugged into a computer or outlet. The cable is too short, limiting mobility. Or the battery is integrated into the belt, and when it starts to weaken, you have to replace the entire belt!
