FAQs

Our newest addition is the NuzzlePUMP Pod, a set of two dual-sided breast pods that are microwaveable, freezable, wearable, wettable, and hand-washable. These new pods are unique because they are filled with durable, nontoxic clay beads that retain temperatures longer than traditional therapies and stay soft and pliable when frozen. No more stiff and bulky gel packs! Unlike the original NuzzleHUG and NuzzlePODs that are filled with rice, our new clay beads inside the NuzzlePUMP Pods be used as both a dry therapy or a wet-moist therapy.

NuzzleHUG - The Original NuzzleHUG is like a warm (or cooling) hug! It is a microwavable or freezable thermal breast and neck therapy–worn like a scarf and is filled with rice. When heated, the combination of warm breast and neck therapy helps with relaxation and can relieve stress and tension for anyone! But there is something extra special that happens when lactating mothers are relaxed and soothed. She produces oxytocin, the love hormone that helps us bond with our babies; this stimulates prolactin, the hormone that produces breast milk. It’s a wonderful feedback loop between two fantastic hormones. We like to say, when you let the love grow, the milk will flow!

Note that the original NuzzleHUG design has two inner NuzzlePODs, which are removable and can be used independently. They are also sold separately (see below).

Also, we are transitioning the Original NuzzleHUG product to a clay bead filling (like our NuzzlePUMP Pods). A significant benefit to using clay beads instead of rice is that they are durable, offer longer-lasting temperatures, and can be used dry and as a wet-moist therapy.

NuzzlePODS - NuzzlePODS are microwavable or freezable thermal breast therapy filled with rice. What’s unique about the NuzzlePODS is that they can be attached to any nursing bra or camisole and worn over them. There is no need to stuff anything in your bra directly against sensitive skin.

Also, we are transitioning the Original NuzzlePOD product to a clay bead filling (like our NuzzlePUMP Pods). A significant benefit to using clay beads instead of rice is that they are durable, offer longer-lasting temperatures, and can be used dry and as a wet-moist therapy.

NuzzleNIPS - Here’s where we got a little cheeky. A NuzzleNIP is a microwavable or freezable thermal nipple therapy filled with rice. The original NuzzleNIP is also sold as an accessory to the NuzzlePODs and can attach to the center of the NuzzlePOD, giving you complete breast and nipple therapy.

Also, we are transitioning the Original NuzzleNIP product to a clay bead filling (like our NuzzlePUMP Pods). A significant benefit to using clay beads instead of rice is that they are durable, offer longer-lasting temperatures, and can be used dry and as a wet-moist therapy.

Remove ALL three inner NuzzlePOD® components from outer cover. 

INNER NUZZLEPOD COMPONENTS ARE NOT WASHABLE DUE TO NATURAL RICE FILLING.

To wash outer cover, machine or hand wash cool delicate, tumble dry low or air dry.

The original NuzzleHUG®, NuzzlePOD®, and NuzzleNIP® are filled with 100% natural rice.

No, do not wash the rice filled NuzzlePOD™ components (and never heat them if they ever get wet).

Since they are made of rice, washing them will ruin them!
