FAQs
Can I fill this with boiling water?
It is recommended to use hot, not boiling, water to protect the integrity of the rubber and prevent accidental burns.

Is the cover removable?
Yes, the soft cover can be removed for easy cleaning.
Can I use this on bare skin?
Always keep the soft cover on the bottle when applying it to your skin to prevent heat burns.
What is the total length of the bottle?

How should I store it when not in use?

Troubleshooting
Bottle feels too heavy when full
You do not need to fill the bottle to maximum capacity; use only as much water as you find comfortable for the intended use.
Leakage around the stopper
Check that the washer inside the stopper is correctly positioned and that the stopper is tightened securely, but do not over-tighten as it may damage the thread.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To fill the bottle, hold it upright by the neck and fill it slowly to prevent splashing. Fill the bottle to no more than two-thirds capacity to allow for air expansion and flexibility. Always ensure the stopper is screwed on securely before use. For cleaning, remove the soft cover and machine wash it according to the label instructions. The rubber bottle itself should be wiped down with a damp cloth if necessary. Store the bottle in a cool, dry, dark place when not in use, and keep the stopper removed to allow the interior to dry completely and prevent sticking.
