Herbtime Therapeutic Rice Packs Review

Herbtime was founded in 1992 by Karyl, who had a strong desire to work with people and share knowledge on natural health.



Herbtime started out as a small store front herb shop in Georgia. The store front was great and gave Karyl the opportunity to meet many people and interact with them on a one on one basis. Herbtime offered vitamins, minerals, herbal supplements, aromatherapy and massage therapy.


Herbtime became an online store in 1998. Herbtime sold the store front after 9 successful years and became a totally online business in 2001. In 2005 Stephanie, Karyl's daughter, joined Herbtime. Stephanie has long struggled with back pain and arthritis. The company slowly shifted from herbal supplements to pain relief and relaxation products.


Herbtime is now in the business of helping people find a way to deal with the pain and stress in their daily lives. Their current product lines focus on mucsle pain, back pain, neck pain and stress relief.  These products go hand in hand with the philosophy of Chiropractic and Massage Therapy Care. 

The first thing that I love about Herbtime is that I believe they truly do care about your health and helping you feel your best with natural therapies! That is also how I feel about helping others, so I appreciate their true sincerity. For instance, on their website they have a free health directory and a really great health library full of great articles.  

Their products are great, too! I received several of their therapeutic hot/cold rice packs. I received the back pack, which is oh-so-nice to ease sore back, legs or arms. It really fits along your whole back, and I like how the baffle design keeps the rice from shifting positions and becoming uneven.

I also received the sinus pack, which is great to be used warm to promote circulation and used cold to ease inflammation.  I love this pack!! I think it is so versatile, and I love that! I not only used it for my sinuses, but I also used it on my neck. At the end of the day, after chasing my kids around, teaching fitness classes, and doing all the things moms do, I have a lot of stress and tension in my neck. Sitting down on the couch with this warm pack on my neck is the best feeling in the world!

And last but not least, I received the travel pack, which is great for those times on the go when you can throw it in your purse and take it to work.  It is also great for little kids and their hurts and pains.

Another thing I love about all of these is that you can use them hot or cold. Just heat them up in the microwave(or in our case the toaster oven, since we don't use microwaves) or cool them off in a bag in the freezer. They feel soooo great!

So, before you jump to take a pill for pain, stress, or other hurts, try out one of these therapeutic packs. I bet it will make you feel better! You can buy these and any of Herbtime's other products right from the website. They are very affordable, and I think you will love them!
