We all experience those days when our body feels stiff, and simple movements become uncomfortable. Whether it’s from a long day at work, stress, or just the natural aches and pains that come with age, those sore joints can feel like a constant burden. The Brit Finds wrap kit is designed to offer relief by gently soothing the discomfort and bringing warmth to the areas that need it most.
What You'll Need:
- Brit Finds Castor Oil Wrap Kit
- Brit Finds Castor Oil (optional for added relaxation)
- Hot & Cold Pad ( FREE, included in the kit)
- Soft towel or cloth (for wiping off excess oil after your session)
Why the Wrap Kit Works for Stiffness and Sore Joints
The wrap is designed to gently support and soothe stiff muscles. When combined with the warmth of the hot & cold pad, it helps increase blood flow and ease muscle tension. Applying castor oil to the area can enhance the soothing effect by offering extra hydration and muscle relaxatio
Step 1: Warm the Hot & Cold Pad
Heat the hot & cold pad in the microwave for 30–45 seconds. Test the temperature to make sure it’s warm, not too hot. If you prefer cold therapy for inflammation, chill the pad in the freezer instead.
Step 2: Apply Castor Oil (Optional)
If you’d like to enhance the soothing effect, apply a small amount of Brit Finds Castor Oil directly to your joints, shoulders, or any stiff areas. Massage it gently into your skin for extra hydration and relaxation.
Step 3: Place the Hot & Cold Pad on the Affected Area
Since the wrap kit doesn’t have a pocket for the pad, place the heated hot & cold pad directly on the joints, wherever you feel the most tension or soreness. Allow the warmth to seep in and relieve discomfort. If you're using the cold side for inflammation, place it carefully on the area needing relief.
Step 4: Secure the Wrap
Now, wrap the Brit Finds Wrap Kit around your neck, shoulders or any affected area. It’s designed to provide gentle support, so wrap it snugly but comfortably. You should feel the warmth from the pad on the targeted areas while the wrap holds everything in place.
Step 5: Relax and Let It Work
Sit back or lie down in a relaxed position for 30–60 minutes. Let the warmth from the pad and the support from the wrap work together to ease the stiffness and soothe your muscles. This is your time to unwind.
Step 6: Wipe Off Excess Oil
After the session, gently wipe off any leftover castor oil with a soft towel or cloth. You don’t need to wash it off unless you prefer.
Extra Tips for Better Results
- Use the wrap kit 2–3 times a week for consistent relief from stiffness and sore muscles.

Gentle Precautions
- Avoid using the wrap on open wounds or irritated skin.
- Test the temperature of the hot & cold pad before applying to ensure it’s comfortable.
- If discomfort persists, or you have chronic pain, consult a healthcare provider.
Lifestyle Support Tips for Neck and Joint Health
-
Limit screen time: Constantly looking down at your phone or computer can lead to neck strain. Try to limit mobile use and adjust your screen to eye level to prevent strain on your neck and shoulders.
-
Follow the 20-20-20 rule: For every 20 minutes you spend looking at a screen, take a 20-second break and focus on something 20 feet away. This gives your neck and eyes a break, reducing strain and stiffness.
-
Maintain proper posture: Keep your shoulders relaxed and your head aligned with your spine, whether sitting or standing. Good posture prevents unnecessary strain on your neck and back, especially when using mobile devices.
-
Practice mindful breathing: Deep, slow breathing helps reduce tension in the neck and shoulders. Incorporating breathing exercises into your daily routine helps relieve stress and prevent muscle tightness.
-
Sleep with proper support: Use a supportive pillow that keeps your neck aligned while you sleep. Good sleep allows your muscles to recover and reduces stiffness, helping you wake up feeling more refreshed.
-
Hydrate for joint health: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your muscles and joints well-hydrated. Hydration supports flexibility and helps reduce muscle stiffness and joint discomfort.

FAQs
