Postpartum healing will require a few different tools to help soothe the pain, reduce swelling and offer some relief to any tears, stitched areas, or swollen. 

Postpartum ice packs reduce swelling and soothe sore and tender areas — helping you feel more comfortable in the days after childbirth, so you can enjoy time with your newborn! There are major benefits to using ice packs specifically designed for postpartum women.  

Perineal cool pads are an essential for use postpartum to cool and soothe your perineum and help any postpartum soreness you may experience.

When the perineum gel pad is heated, it can be also used while in the second stage of labour to reduce perineal tears when pressed against the perineal area (ask your medical team if you're unsure how to correctly apply) 

When frozen, the perineal ice pack provides soothing, cooling relief to the perineal area which may be irritated, swollen and tender from childbirth

The perineal ice pack can also be used to give instant relief from vaginal irritations and inflamed haemorrhoids, or to treat Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction (SPD). 

The pack can be heated or cooled.

Please note that design of the packs may differ slightly depending on current stock level. 

Each pack comes with a one perineum ice/heat pack and 5 x disposable covers. 

Use the sleeves provided and do not apply the packs directly to the skin.
