Why Flaxseed

Why Flaxseed?

WHY FLAXSEED INSTEAD OF GRAINS?

 

When used for massage the small flaxseeds are quiet and do not create a grinding effect when manipulated.

 

When heated flaxseed provides a gentle, moist heat that retain their temperature for a significant time. 

 

Flaxseeds are flower seeds, rather than grains, so they contain 30-40% oil which remains inside the seed to be warmed again and again.

 

Other products lose their ability to retain heat as the water cooks out of them over time.

 

Flaxseeds don’t have that, “Cooked grain smell” grain based products have when heated.

 

The weight of flaxseed is gentle and comforting.
