FAQ's

Carbon Neutral Partnership

Pelvic Pain Solutions & Shopify - Carbon Neutral Shipping

We aligned with Shopify as their partner to work with companies that remove carbon from the air. For every order we receive, a formula is used to calculate the estimated shipping emissions. Based on those estimates, a portion of our revenue goes to carbon removal companies that have been vetted by scientists from Carbon Direct. Those companies use that money to remove however much carbon our shipments created. Any extra funds go toward the further development of carbon removal technologies. Truly a win/win.

EndoFEMM®️ Pelvic/Lumbar Hot & Cold Wrap

What are the care instructions for the pelvic therapy hot/cold wraps?

Spot clean with a clean, white cloth only; do not dry clean or machine wash.

What is the purpose of the hook and loop strap design on your therapy pads?

Our two-inch wide, eco-friendly, medical grade hook and loop straps allow ultimate versatility and hands-free therapy while sitting upright or walking around receiving hot or cold therapy. Straps are microwave safe and may be warm to the touch. Please exercise caution before placing directly onto the body; spot test first.

When using the cooling version, how does this compare to regular ice packs?

For a soothing, cooling effect, we suggest storing our therapy wraps in the freezer. We recommend placing the pad in a plastic gallon-size freezer bag and leaving it overnight for best results. Unlike traditional ice packs, which can cause discomfort and even nerve damage due to intense, cold therapy, our pads offer a gentle, cooling sensation that can alleviate pain and promote relaxation.

What is inside the therapy wraps?

We use triple-cleaned organic whole flaxseed to create a soothing deep feel against the skin, providing moist heat therapy that conforms to the body's shape simply through the weight of the pad. Its allergen-free and scent free. Our supplier is sustainable resourced so every purchase helps minimize the impact on our planet .... truly a win/win!

How does the therapy wrap work?

Our therapy wraps have a unique patented shape that is designed to effectively provide heat when heated in the microwave. We recommend experimenting with heating times as microwave temperatures can vary by make and model. Our therapy pads come with instruction cards for easy use. Please ensure that you do not overheat the pad and never leave it unattended in the microwave.

Is there a method that should be followed when using the microwave?

Placing the therapy wrap on an oscillating carousel in the microwave at 60-70% power is an excellent way to ensure even heating and to prolong the life of the pad. Heat no more than 1 minute then test heat with your hand before placing directly onto body.

If I accidentally overheat the pad in the microwave, will it damage the pad in any way?

To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of our therapy wraps, it is important to follow the heating instructions provided on the label. Overheating the wrap can potentially damage it, and we cannot accept returns, refunds, or exchanges due to customer misuse. We recommend following the instructions carefully and not leaving the pad unattended while in use.

Are there any safety precautions before using the therapy wraps?

Caution: Always use adult supervision when using the therapy wrap on children. The wrap should not be used on infants or individuals with poor circulation, insensitive skin, or diabetes. It is advisable to consult a physician before using the heating pad.

Do you accept returns and/or refunds on your therapy wraps?

Because our product addresses intimate needs, we regret to inform you that we are unable to process returns. We appreciate your understanding and are here to assist you with any questions or concerns.

International Shipping

Do you ship internationally? Are there any restrictions?

  • Absolutely! We offer international shipping for our products. However, please be aware that some countries may charge a VAT fee for our seat cushions, which the customer is responsible for. It is advisable to confirm the estimated charges with your carrier before placing your order. Please note that we are not liable for any costs incurred outside of the USA.
  • Additionally, please be aware that shipping times may be longer due to staff shortages or weather conditions within the carrier. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to navigate these challenges.

Why am I being charged for duties on my international shipping?

  • Recipients of international items may be subject to duties charged by the destination country's customs service, which PPS has no control over. Thus, we cannot advise customers on the applicable duties. If the recipient wishes to dispute any charges, they should contact their country's Customs service.
  • Please note that customs regulations and fees vary significantly between countries, and it is the customer's responsibility to determine whether their customs service will accept their ordered items.
  • Also note that PPS does not include customs fees in our orders. Customers are responsible for paying any customs charges imposed by their country before retrieving their item.

How will I know if my international parcel is being held in Customs?

If your package is held or delayed by Customs or quarantine authorities, they will directly contact you. "Possible delay" track status or notifications may also indicate Customs delay.

How long will Customs take to clear my parcel?

Customs authorities aim to process parcels quickly, but it can take up to 15 days to complete. Delays may occur if duties are due or if the parcel needs to be held for other reasons. You will be notified directly in such cases.

Seat Cushions

How does the built-in comfort channel work on the seat cushions?

Our Coccyx Pudendal - U-Shaped Cushion cradles the pelvic floor and features a 2 1/4" wide inner channel for comfort and protection while sitting and driving. The SunCloud™ - Travel Cushion has a wider channel that expands to 3-inches and can hold a 3" x 11" (or longer) ice pack for cold therapy.

What are the dimensions of the cushions?

We offer various sizes for the Coccyx/Pudendal U-Shaped Cushion design. Our most popular size is 16"L x 16" W, available in 2.0" or 2.5" foam (Plus version). Our Mini Coccyx/Pudendal U-Shaped Cushion is designed for smaller bucket-style sport seats or on planes, trains, and in restaurants, measuring 14"L x 14"W, available in 2.0" foam. Choose from Soft, Medium, Firm, and X-Firm.

The SunCloud™ - Travel Cushion design has three size choices, 14"x14", 16"x 16", and 18"x18" all available in 2-inch foam and 2.5-inch foam in our 18x18 Plus version. Choose from Soft, Medium, Firm, and X-Firm.

What does ILD mean in regards to the foam?

The ILD stands for "Indentation Load Deflection", which is a measure of the firmness of foam. It indicates the number of pounds of pressure needed to compress a 4-inch foam by 25% with a 50-square-inch indentation. Another term used for this rating is 25% ILD.

How long is the open channel on the cushions?

The standard Coccyx/Pudendal - U-Shaped Cushion is 3"Wx10"L; the SunCloud™ - Travel Cushion is 3"Wx16"L.

Can I change the direction of the cushions?

Yes, you can use the Coccyx/Pudendal - U-Shaped Cushion in different positions by placing the opening at the tailbone region or pelvic floor/crotch area depending on your personal needs and comfort. The SunCloud™ - Travel Cushion is diverse can be used to alleviate and support pelvic pain and lumbar alignment.

What type of foam do you use?

Our best-selling standard foam is firm (2.5 lb./45 ILD) for 230 lbs. and under; it is long-lasting and will not compress or flatten out. It has passed all certifications for safety and compliance.

What type of fabric is used?

We offer two fabric options: Performance Grade, which is highly durable and stain resistant, and Faux Leather which has anti-microbial, anti-fade/anti-cracking, stain and odor-resistant properties. It is eco-friendly and hospital-grade, making it easy to clean and long-lasting.

What is the difference between the two fabrics?

We prioritize affordability without sacrificing quality. Our cushions differ mainly in the upholstery fabric grade. The award-winning faux leather, hospital-grade, eco-friendly fabric resists stains, odors, bacteria, and mildew, protecting your investment. It is easy to clean and bleach cleanable. Our standard version is made with a durable performance upholstery fabric that is UV resistant and designed for heavy use, but does not have stain-resistant properties.

Do the cushions include zippers?

As of 2024, we have added medical-grade zippers to provide an easy way for our customers to simplify the cushion replacement. For either fabric, we suggest a gentle cleansing with mild soap and cold water using a soft cloth, followed by air drying, is recommended.
