Microwave Heating Pads for Health Professionals with Cold Hands

Health professionals whose work requires touching need to be aware of how their hands feel on someone's body -- especially on someone who is sensitive to the cold. Having someone touch you with cold hands is uncomfortable.

They should also be aware of room temperature. I recall sitting in a dermatologists office, waiting for a half

hour in a light hospital johnny. When I complained to the nurse just smiled. The dermatologists hands were freezing.

Physicians, nurses, chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists and others whose job requires touching may want to use a pair of microwave hand warmers for a few minutes if their hands are cold before touching a patient.

Maine Warmers' microwave Hand Warmers are easy to slip on and off and can be heated in just a minute and a half. A smaller version of hand warmers are Palm Packs that fit in the palm of the hand and slip into pockets. The Cozy Black Bear on the right will warm hands or other body parts.
