There are many ways to make a rice heating bag. While methods are different, materials are the same.
In this article, we are to deal with one of the famous and practical ones.
So, for starters, if you want to benefit from these kinds of handmade heating pads, you only need:
1. A rice bag (Fabric one)
2. A certain amount of rice, or any other grain
3. scissors
4. a little sewing skill
5. some kind of heater like microwave
Now that we have all the things we need let’s go and learn how to make a heating pad. Here’s how we do it:
First, we have to cut the rice bag to the desired size and prepare it.
You can cut the rice bag to whatever size you desire. The bag you're using must have the necessary thickness and strength so that it holds the items inside without ripping them apart. If your rice bag is not thick enough, you can make it in two layers or embroider another bag to make it thicker.
Second, you have to Iron the rice bag sheets you just cut
The flatter your bag is, the more efficient it will be at holding and transferring heat. So, for making sure what we’re making is an effective one, it is necessary to iron the rice bag and remove its protrusions.
Third, Sewing the bag of rice
Rice bags have different sizes and shapes and of course, they are truly unbalanced. Therefore, it is necessary to cut the rice bag (as it had been said in previous parts) in the desired size and shape (square, rectangle, bar shape).
But after that, sew the rice bag and make it your desired shape and size. It is recommended to sew the bag at intervals of 2 cm for each edge. In this case, first, you should sew each edge of the sheets of the rice bag at a distance of two centimeters and then sew the edges together to form the shape.
*It is recommended that after sewing each of the sheets, each of the edges is ironed so that they’d be smoother for the sewing afterward.
**It should be noted that when sewing the bag, leave a special space open so that you can pour rice or any other grain you had in mind into the bag.
Finally, fill the bag with rice
At this stage, you should pour the grains such as rice, etc. through the space remaining into the sewed bag. After that, it is necessary to sew the bag completely. It is recommended that all four edges be sewn back and forth so that the bag has sufficient strength.
Now that your heating pad is sewed this is the instruction on how to use it:
• Wet the rice bag and then squeeze out so that the excess water is out till the bag is just damp.
• Place the bag in the microwave.
• Heat the microwave for two or three minutes.
• Remove the bag from the microwave.
• Put it on the sore area and enjoy.
What’s with a rice heating pad that makes it work and heal the pain?
Blood flow is the most important zone and part of the body that the rice heating pad aims to affect and deal with.

Rice heating pad does it in the best way for what it makes blood flow to the painful areas which help the body to recover its pains better and sooner. Emitted heat from the heating pad, opens up vessels that allow blood and oxygen to flow more readily and make their way to sore points.
