3 Common Men’s Health Conditions That Can Be Relieved Using Hot Cherry® Pillows

It is no secret that heat therapy is an effective form of pain relief. It involves applying heat to the affected area, which helps increase blood flow, thus also bringing in oxygen and the necessary proteins required for healing. While both moist and dry heat are used in heat therapy treatments, moist heat has proven to be more potent when it comes to penetrating the tissues to speed up the recovery process. Our Hot Cherry® Pillows, filled with clean, dried cherry pits, can be easily heated up to release moist heat, which can help alleviate numerous pains that men suffer from.

Here are some common health conditions that can be relieved using Hot Cherry® Pillows:

1.    Sports injury and muscle fatigue

If you are a athlete with a rigorous training schedule, chances are you are prone to suffer from common sports injuries like sprains and muscle pulls. The same goes for workout aficionados. It doesn’t matter if you take all the precautions; sometimes preventing injuries is beyond our control. Relieving them, however, is. If the injury is acute, that is if it just happened, apply chilled Hot Cherry Pillows, to reduce inflammation and prevent swelling. If your pain is chronic, recurring old injuries flaring up, then heat is indicated. When placed on the affected area, our Hot Cherry® Pillows can provide a warm, comforting sensation and ease the pain much faster than dry heat.

2.    Back pain

Back pain can often have a debilitating effect on your life, but fortunately, there are ways to soothe your back that do not involve becoming dependent on pain killers. Hot Cherry® Pillows are one of them. In fact, in a study published by the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, it was found that applying low-level heat continuously on the back eased the pain better than some over-the-counter pain killers. Try a Hot Cherry Pillow to help ease that back pain and help you relax.

3.    Stiff neck

A stiff neck can happen to anyone, at any time. Something as simple as sleeping in the wrong position can leave you with an uncomfortable stiff neck. Our neck wraps, which can be wrapped around the neck even when you are walking around, can ease the pain with soothing, penetrating moist heat. If however, you suffer from chronic neck problems, be sure to consult a doctor for a professional opinion. The doctor may recommend a cervical pillow (like Hot Cherry’s cervical pillow) to replace a thick bed pillow and to help restore the natural curve of the cervical neck spine. Used hot, cold , or room temperature, relief is sweet.

Browse through our online store to buy our therapeutic pillows that are designed to alleviate muscle aches, sports injuries, tummy aches and more, through moist penetrating heat. They’re available in a six sizes, which means finding one that is perfect for your body is now easier than ever.

If you are a gift shop owner, you know how competitive the retail landscape has become. And you do not want to be just another gift shop round the corner. You want to be THE gift shop that wins every customer, has regulars, and soaring profits. All this is achievable if you implement these four tips:

1. Create a Unique In-Store Experience

Let your gift shop be a paradise for customers not only in terms of unique and thoughtful gifts but also when it comes to the shopping experience. If your store is like Aladdin’s cave with great finds, the customer experience you offer should be like the cherry on top.

Apart from placing items immaculately on shelves, you can be creative and hang some on the ceilings or the walls. Remember, it is not simply about what you sell, but essentially about how you sell it.

2. Freshen up Your Inventory from Time to Time

If you have the same items adorning the shelves and walls of your store, the regular customer may start looking for alternatives. The problem goes away if you keep your merchandise assortment fresh. Keep an eye on the trends, look out for new, thoughtful items, and always value customer feedback.

Items that make perfect, sustainable gifts for a myriad of occasions are a must-have in the shop, for example, Hot Cherry Therapeutic Pillows. These pillows are great gifts for everyone, from kids to grandparents! Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Birthdays, Weddings, or just because I love you kind of day: a Hot Cherry Pillow is the ideal gift.

3. Leverage Technology

Technology can do so much to enhance the growth optimization of your business, from reducing operational burdens to gaining and retaining customers.

Switch to mobile POS or point of sale system from the traditional cash register. That will not only streamline business processes but also enhance customers’ shopping experience. Opt for POS solutions that offer customer management and inventory features. Investing in a CRM or customer relationship management tool is also a smart decision as it encourages repeat purchases and drives loyalty.

4. Value-Addition through Services

Offer services that enhance the customer shopping experience. This can range from gift-wrapping in the store to consultations to help the buyer make the right purchase. If feasible, you can also organize DIY art projects to drive traffic and customer engagement.

These four tips will definitely accelerate sales, generating more profits, and making you the go-to gift store in the area.

Today, the climate crisis has become more evident than ever, and that has made Earth Day 2021 a lot more significant than the previous years. First started in the US in 1970, this day has come to symbolize the coming together of millions of people around the world who pledge their support for the environment, bringing into focus the urgency of saving the planet through the right actions.

When the world went into a lockdown because of the COVID-19 pandemic, there were reports about how nature was healing, but now the global CO2 emission levels are higher than what they were before the pandemic hit. It has become imperative that we cut emissions by a staggering 45 percent to prevent global warming from increasing any further, and that fact alone highlights the sheer extent of the problem that we are all faced with. This is why we need to pull our socks up and this Earth Day, commit to viable and efficient action to combat climate change.

Here are a few things you should know about Earth Day:

What Is Earth Day?

Earth Day is an annual event that seeks to call attention to the rampant environmental degradation that we are witnessing. It highlights various issues, ranging from deforestation to global warming. For Earth Day on April 22, 2021, US President Joe Biden has invited leaders from across the world to take part in a virtual summit to discuss climate action. The event will be live streamed.

When Do We Celebrate Earth Day?

Ever since it was established in 1970, each year 22 April is celebrated as Earth Day. This year, however, climate activists have called for the event to be celebrated over three days, from April 20 to April 22, 2021.

When Was The First Earth Day?

The history of Earth Day can be traced back to a time in the US when the country was experiencing a tumultuous political and economic environment. The country was divided over the Vietnam War. The economy was improving but at a heavy environmental cost. Oil and chemical industries were booming. Air and water pollution was rampant but it was considered as a sign of development. It was only after a devastating oil spill in Santa Barbara, California, in 1969 that the people fighting for the climate got the final push to go ahead with a call for better industrial practices and regulations. US senator and environmentalist Gaylord Nelson founded Earth Day in 1970 to emphasize on the importance of clean air and clean water.

Themes

Each year, Earth Day is marked by a specific theme. For 2021, the theme is “Restore Our Earth.” The theme focuses on how we can reduce our impact on the planet in a post-pandemic world and also combat the damage that we have already done.

You, Too, Can Do Your Part

In addition to taking part in online events that are being hosted by individuals and climate action groups all around the world, you can also do your part by adopting a more sustainable lifestyle. Making simple changes such as using reusable straws, carrying your own water bottles, not using plastic bags and so on, can make a big difference

Come, join the movement to counteract climate change with Hot Cherry Pillows. We create natural, sustainable therapeutic pillows filled with Michigan cherry pits, made in the USA and certified by Green America!

Being human means releasing planet-warming carbon emissions into the atmosphere. It happens when we take a shower, charge our phones, or let out a yawn after a long day. Just like humans release carbon pollution, so do businesses - and Hot Cherry® is no exception.

Everyday in the U.S. alone, ecommerce packages travel about the same distance as going to the moon and back ...133,000 times. And it’s not just getting your order to your doorstep we have to worry about - our entire supply chain carries a hefty carbon footprint. Sourcing the perfect materials and transforming them into the Hot Cherry Pillows you know and love means tons (literally) of planet-warming carbon pollution.

We’re on a Mission

As Hot Cherry continues to grow, we have an increasing responsibility to commit additional resources toward our values in order to maximize the positive impact of our products. At Hot Cherry we have long held the conviction that we can be both a great business and a great contributor to healing the environment. In fact, we believe we cannot be one without the other.

Social responsibility is cemented in Hot Cherry’s DNA because we have always believed deeply in making the world a better place.

What Hot Cherry is Doing

The climate crisis is massive, complicated, and overwhelming. So, it’s often hard to know what we can do about our carbon footprint.

Starting today, we’re partnering with EcoCart to empower the Hot Cherry community to make their orders 100% carbon neutral.

For every one of our amazing pillows that ships, you can now offset the specific carbon footprint with a positive environmental impact! This means the full carbon emissions from producing, manufacturing, and shipping your favorite Hot Cherry Pillows to your door would be completely neutralized.

Further more, the Hot Cherry headquarters is powered by Solar, and we use 100% recycled packing paper and recycled inventory boxes. We use only natural dyes for our denim, and of course our pits are salvaged from going to land filled, and cleaned without chemicals. All Hot Cherry Pillows are made in the USA!

Now you can feel confident knowing that shopping at Hot Cherry means making a positive impact on the planet.

So now you’ll know when a Hot Cherry package arrives at your door, you’ll get something you love and you’ll be proud of the fact that you’re taking a small step towards making a big change in the world.

Huh?

What does it mean to offset emissions?

It means that for any carbon emissions released into our atmosphere as a result of manufacturing and shipping items at Hot Cherry we invest in projects that reduce carbon emissions by the same amount. It’s almost like we’re giving the planet an IOU, then immediately paying it back.

How does it work?

Now, each time someone checks the carbon neutral box in our checkout, we will automatically purchase verified emissions reductions, more commonly known as “offsets” through our friends at EcoCart. These purchases support environmental projects, like wind and solar farms that create clean energy, or protecting trees that would otherwise be cut down so that they can continue to absorb carbon from the air. On top of it, we make sure that these projects are doing some extra good like protecting animals or supporting underserved communities.

Why is this important?

Hot Cherry has always been conscious of our impact and actively worked to lighten our carbon footprint. We believe that if we all work together towards positive change, we can make the world a cleaner, healthier place.

What do you mean carbon neutral?

When we say your orders will be “carbon neutral” (“net zero” is another term you’ll hear), that means that we will eliminate, capture, or otherwise mitigate all of the carbon emissions created from making Hot Cherry Pillows and shipping them to your door.

We’ll even give you information about the project your specific donation is supporting, so you know your money is going to the right place.

Just the Beginning

At Hot Cherry we are committed to slowing the effects of climate change, one order at a time.

Carbon offsets are a starting point—an immediate way to reduce our impact. Even though this is a moment to celebrate, we think that it’d be even better if we didn’t emit any carbon in the first place. To achieve this, we’re working to develop projects in our own supply chain that will reduce our emissions directly.

The Power of Us

Our work isn’t done for another important reason. No matter how much progress we continue to make on our own footprint, Hot Cherry’s footprint is actually quite small. The effects of climate change are magnified far beyond Hot Cherry itself.

The only way we can truly begin to reverse the effects of climate change are if everyone does their part.

What can you do?

1. First, focus on the energy efficiency of your home. Efficiency is also the easiest way to save money. Program your thermostat. Check in with your own utility and see if they offer rebates on LED light bulbs, efficient appliances, upgraded insulation or other cost-effective upgrades like efficient water fixtures. Ask your utility if they offer a home energy audit.
   
   
2. If you own a house, installing solar might make financial sense for you. In some cases, you can install solar with no upfront cost while lowering your energy bill each month. In a few areas, you can buy into a community solar array that isn’t even on your property. If solar doesn’t work for your house or you live in an apartment or condo, ask your utility company if they offer a residential green power program. Many do with simple, reasonable terms.
   
   
3. Find brands with legitimate sustainability initiatives. Whether it’s with carbon neutral products, a sustainable supply chain, recycled materials, or eco-friendly packaging, we should all do our best to limit the carbon footprint of the products we buy. 
   
   
4. Challenge yourself to drive less and bike more. Riding your bike forces you to utilize your own muscle power. You’ll get a workout all while helping the environment. Plus, it requires much less energy to produce a bike than it does to manufacture a car. If you can’t bike to work for whatever reason, take public transportation. It puts less cars on the road, which reduces the amount of exhaust filling the air at once.
   
   
5. Opt for reusable bottles, bags, and anything else that you usually use once then throw away. If that’s not an option, make sure to properly recycle any plastic, paper, glass or metal that comes into your life. 

 

If we all do our part by changing our daily habits and making sustainable swaps, supporting companies that care about their impact on the Earth, and advocate for the future we deserve, we can effect real change in the world.

Benefits & Other Things You Should Know

What happens in moist heat therapy? Heat is transferred to your tissues from a wet source to provide relief from pain. When placed on the affected area, moist heat helps relax sore muscles, dilate blood vessels, loosen tight joints, and relieve pain. As moist heat improves blood circulation and relaxes your muscles, it aids in healing. The best part? There are zero side effects!

Why is moist heat therapy used by physical therapists, acupuncturists, and chiropractors?

Moist heat therapy is highly recommended by physical therapists, chiropractors, and acupuncturists to enhance healing because moist heat eases tight muscles and aids in performing therapeutic exercises and chiropractic adjustments.  These practitioners often recommend moist heat treatments of all kinds. Chiropractors often use hydrocullated sand-filled pads applied to painful areas on your body. At home you may use a hot water bottle or a steam towel for the therapy, but we hope you will try our hot cherry pit pillows to provide luxurious comfort while alleviating pain.

How is Moist Heat Therapy Beneficial?

Heat therapy increases the blood circulation of the particular area. That provides relief from pain and speeds up the healing process.

How exactly does heat therapy reduce pain? The nerve receptors transmitting pain signals also transmit heat signals. So, when you apply moist heat to a part of your body, those receptors are stimulated. As a result, the pain signals are drowned out instead of reaching the brain. So, you witness a reduction in the level of pain you were experiencing.


Moist heat therapy is helpful to treat sources of pain that are deep-seated, such as knee osteoarthritis. The condition is caused by the rubbing of bones against each other in the absence of the protective cartilage. Moist therapy reaches the deep source of pain, offering relief. Secondary muscle spasms due to chronic arthritis can also be effectively treated with moist heat therapy. Our pillows are particularly helpful because they easily mold around hard-to-reach joints.

If you suffer from arthritis pain, keep a cherry pit pillow handy! Our pillows are one hundred percent safe to use, unlike a heating pad, our pillows gradually cool down, so there is no chance of getting burned if you fall asleep. Hot Cherry Pillows warm quickly in the microwave, so quick relief is just minutes away.

Moist heat therapy is also recommended for DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness) experienced post-exercise, muscle spasms. Relaxing with Hot Cherry pillows is a wonderful treat after a hard workout.

Moist heat also aids the treatment of neuropathy pain by increasing circulation. Place one by your feet in bed and discover a simple pain relief solution for cold and circulation-poor feet.
 
How are moist and dry heat different?

• Dry heat merely warms the surface and can literally dry out your skin.
• Moist heat penetrates deep into tissues
• Moist heat changes the temperature of your tissues more rapidly. The result is a more vigorous response from your body’s temperature receptors.  

Moist heat is a preferential heat therapy treatment for conditions like stiffness, secondary muscle spasms caused by chronic arthritis, muscle spasm, and pain due to posterior neck and back among patients with ankylosing spondylitis.  

Experience the wonders of moist heat therapy packed in our Hot Cherry Pillows.

Is your arthritis acting up? Or are you dealing with a sports injury? Are your overused muscles crying out for some TLC? Our therapeutic Hot Cherry Pillows will provide much-needed comfort. Just microwave one of our pillows for a few minutes and let the unique fill of hollow cherry pits deliver moist warmth that alleviates pain.

What Causes Stiffness and Pain in the Neck?

How much do you know about the structure of your neck? It consists of vertebrae extending from your skull to your upper torso. There are cervical discs for absorbing the shock between your bones. The muscles, ligaments, and bones of the neck not only support the head but also allow its motion. Injury or inflammation to the area can result in stiffness and pain. If you are experiencing debilitating pain in your neck, you should try Hot Cherry therapeutic pillows. It’s a perfect birthday or holiday gift. What better gift can you give than comforting relief?

Adults experience pain and stiffness in the neck from time-to-time. In most cases, overuse or poor posture is the cause. Usually, the condition is not serious and fades after a few days. But there are cases where it becomes a severe issue requiring proper medical attention. In case your neck pain has been troubling you for more than seven days or is extreme, you must consult your doctor or chiropractor immediately.

Common Causes of Neck Pain

Stiffness or pain in the neck can happen because of an array of reasons. They are:

Tensed or Strained Muscles

Muscle strain or tension can lead to discomfort or pain in the neck and surrounding area. It usually occurs due to poor posture, sleeping in the wrong position, or jerking the neck while exercising. If you have a desk job, you should avoid sitting for long hours without changing positions or take breaks because long hours in the same position lead to tensed muscles in the neck. Simply relaxing with the moist, penetrating heat of a Hot Cherry Neck Wrap can relieve many everyday tensions.
Injury


Your neck is vulnerable to injury. Accidental falls, sports, or any other activity where the ligaments and muscles of your neck are forcefully moved outside their normal range of motion make it prone to injury. Whiplash is the condition where you injure your neck because of the sudden jerking of your head. Sometimes cold applications will help soothe acute injuries and one of your Hot Cherry Neck Wraps, chilled in the freezer can bring immediate help if swelling or inflammation is involved. Otherwise, a warmed Hot Cherry Neck Wrap can be just the perfect amount of relaxation to ease the strained muscles and ligaments and the increased circulation from the moist heat can bring calming relief.

Forward Neck Thrust

This diagnosis is given to those with the chronic position of the head that juts forward over the chest. The weight of the head, unsupported by the spine, can put many pounds of weight in an unnatural position, straining discs and sometimes creating permanent damage. Often this is the result of carrying a heavy backpack, as many students do, or it can develop from sitting at a computer or texting with one’s head leaning forward. It can also be caused by sleeping on a bed pillow that is too thick and doesn’t allow the cervical spine to maintain a straight position during sleep. Our Hot Cherry Cervical Neck Pillow was developed in conjunction with a chiropractor whose patients benefited from replacing their bed pillows with our Cervical Pillow and learning to sleep on their backs to improve the posture in the cervical neck area of the spine.

Serious Problems

Meningitis is the inflammation of a thin tissue surrounding your brain and spinal cord. People who have the condition experience fever and headache along with neck stiffness. This condition is considered a medical emergency. Seek immediate medical help if you have these symptoms.

Final words

Ice and heat therapy along with proper exercise are effective remedies for neck pain. And of course using Hot Cherry Therapeutic Pillows can provide that much-needed relief, heated or chilled.

It’s our mission to make pillows that help people feel better, and we want everyone to be able to afford Hot Cherry pillows, so… join our mailing list today to receive discount coupons at various times of the year. (newsletter signup link here)

If working out alone bores you, do it with a friend or a family member. Motivate and have each-other’s back.But don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Try to keep it simple, fun, and interesting. If you develop soreness from over exersion, relax those muscles with Hot Cherry Pillows.

3 Common Physical Effects of Too Much Stress on Your Body

Stress does not exactly have a fixed set of universal causes and effects. People experience stress differently and for various reasons. For some, it may be work-related, while for others, it could be a result of family issues. What causes one person to become stressed may be of little or no concern to another. In the same way, we all handle stress differently, some of us being better at it than others. However, in small amounts, stress is not all bad. Often, it is a motivator that’s essential to survival, and our bodies can easily handle it. But long-term, stress tends to manifest itself in the form of physical effects on the body that could lead to  chronic problems. Here are some of them:

Headache

Headache is one of the most common physical symptoms of stress. In a study,it was found that around 45% people experienced some stressful situation before their chronic headache set in. It is a condition that is characterized by pain the head as well as the neck region. It can range from mild to severe, with the latter often rendering the person incapable of engaging in daily activities. 

Tense and Aching Muscles

Another condition often associated with increased levels of stress is musclepain, simply from tensed-up muscles. It can keep you from going about your everyday work, making you feel weak and fatigued. However, it may notonly affect your physical health but your mental health as well. Even if the pain is not too severe, it can still make you feel low and dispirited. 

Low Energy

We all have those days when we feel like all the energy has been drained out of our body.Decreased energy levels can sometimes make it hard to even get out of bed in the morning. It could be a sign of a chronic stressed-out state, or depression. Stress is a common cause of both emotionaland physical exhaustion.

During this pandemic Amazon considers cherry pit pillows among the essentials that are being shipped out because people are stressed, scared, over burdened and aching to the bone. Some are suffering from the coronavirus, and some are professional caregivers. Everyone can benefit from our comforting pillows. And Hot Cherry Pillows can to be shipped to your door in a matter of days.

Our Hot Cherry Pillows can help in these ways:

Aching back and legs, either from standing on them for hours or from couch commuting, overused or underused muscles both benefit from moist heat treatments. I like putting a heated Triple Square Pillow under my raised legs. The heat relaxes stiff hamstrings and muscles, while the elevation reduces the swelling of ankles. Conversely, you can chill that same pillow and enjoy a cold version for inflammation reduction and leg cramp relief.

Headaches and Migraines respond well to hot or cold application of our Hot Cherry Eye Pillow. The weight of the pits sink into eye sockets and bring their soothing comfort deep into the muscles surrounding the eyes, relaxing and reducing pressure. Blocking out light allows the eyes and the body to calm down and rest a bit.  Hot or cold, relief is sweet. And you just may escape the kids for a 20+ minute treatment.

Many people rely on massage for stress relief. Since many spas are closed, you can give yourself a weighted moist heat treatment with one or several Hot Cherry Pillows placed on chest, legs, shoulders or neck pain. The weight and moist heat relax muscle groups, increases circulation, which encourages you to center yourself in calm relaxation, much like a weighted blanket, without weighing down your feet.

Remember that when you heat your Hot Cherry Pillow in the microwave, it is sterilized, making it safe to use with various members of the family. And when it no longer smells delicious, then simply wash in the washing machine and dry in the dryer, to restore its original lovely aroma of cherry pie.

Self Care goes right along with Staying Safe, Staying Home and doing your part to help curb the contagion of Covid-19. We think that having several Hot Cherry Pillows available for family members is essential, during the pandemic, and we hope that you do too.

Thinking of how you can help others? Send them a Hot Cherry Pillow gift to comfort their aches and pains, and to cuddle with during long lonely nights.
