DIY Back Warmer Pillow

Scroll down for english, please. 


A ideia de hoje é uma versão um pouco maior das almofadas térmicas que fiz há uns anos para o meu pai e o meu sogro e que vos mostrei no último post. A ideia para esta surgiu quando a minha mãe andou muito mal das costas e me disse que usava as almofadinhas do meu pai para lhe dar algum alívio. 

Today's idea is just a slightly bigger version of the warming pillows I made for my father and father in law many years ago, and have shared in my last post. The idea came to me when my mom hurt her back really bad and told me she was using my father's little pillows to get some relief. 


Assim que com a ideia das anteriores, fiz-lhe uma semelhante mas tamanho XL para que pudesse usar na zona lombar. Assim em vez de colocar as pequenas que não chegavam a cobrir toda a zona, passou a usar esta que tinha o tamanho ideal. 

So, just like the previous ones, I made her a XL sized piloow so she could use on her lower back. Like this she didn't need the smallest ones which didn't cover all the hurt area, and could use this one istead with the right size. 


Tal como com as anteriores, fiz a almofada em algodão e depois fiz-lhe a forra para que a pudesse lavar sempre que necessário. A almofada em si, não se pode molhar devido ao seu conteúdo, como é óbvio, que consiste em arroz, alfazema (flores) e óleo essencial (eu usei gerânio porque adoro, mas fica ao vosso critério, mas se usarem um com propriedades anti-inflamatórias e/ou calmantes tanto melhor). 

Again, I made her the pillow with cotton fabric and also the cover, so she could take it off to wash as many times as needed. The pillow itself can't be wet because of its content, obviously, since it is filled with rice, lavander (flowers) and an essencial oil (I used the geranium because I love it, but you can use another one, of course using one with anti-inflamatory properties and /or calming ones the better). 


Este tipo de almofada pode usar-se quente ou frio. No primeiro caso, aquece-se entre 30 a 60 segundos no microondas. No caso do frio (para reduzir inchaços por exemplo), colocar dentro de um saco plástico hermético e congelar. 

This type of pillow can be used warm or cold. In the first case, hit it for about 30 to 60 seconds on the microwave. In the case of using cold (to decrease swelling for example), put it inside an hermetic plastic bag and freeze.
