"Exactly what I needed arrived at exactly the time I needed it, proving once again that there are angels among us" - Dini Petty, Radio & TV Personality

10% of sales donated to Cancer Care and Research in memory of Sandra M. Porter.

In January 2007, I slipped on the front porch, landing full force on my left hip putting it out of place and bruising the bone. Within weeks I walked like a duck, weeks after that I walked like a very old duck. Chiropractic, massage, acupuncture and yoga have provided my path to recovery but I needed more. I dreamed of a large heat source for my hips, lower back and neck. I like to sleep with a scarf over my eyes to block out all the light and I wondered if there was something out there that would stay in place better than a scarf.

A month later a large parcel arrived on my doorstep, inside was a Soothing Blanket for hips and lower back, a Soothing Neck Pad and Headache Pad: everything on my wish list! The accompanying letter explained that this gift was a thank you for my donation to a fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Hastings & Prince Edward Counties; I had offered "Dinner with Dini" as an auction item. More importantly, the letter continued Natural Touch owned by Linda Peers (gift sender) had a dear friend, Sandra Porter, who had been an admirer of mine before her untimely death, and in memory of Sandra, this gift was sent. A percentage of sales from all products are donated to cancer care and research in memory of Sandra M. Porter.

These soothing pads have played a major role in my recovery and as of today, September 12th, 2007, I am 75% healed and could not have done it without this gift.

I am still amazed at the coincidence of all this: exactly what I needed arrived at exactly the time I needed it, proving once again that there are angels among us.

A very grateful
Dini Petty


“For over a decade in practice, I have sold literally hundreds of Natural Touch’s flax pads to patients requiring the therapeutic benefits of moist heat. I have never found another pad that has so many outstanding features all in one: is odour-free, has a removable, washable cover, has significant weight for application independently and retains its heat for so long—not to mention the high quality fabrics they are created from. Nor have I had a single return from patients. Their convenience, effectiveness and durability make them an absolute necessity as an adjunct for musculoskeletal pain and stiffness.”

“The Big Carrot Health Food Market has stocked Natural Touch products since the fall of 1996. Our customers love the quality and therapeutic value of Linda’s flax and buckwheat pillows, often returning several times to purchase pads and pillows for friends and family. Chiropractors, Registered Massage Therapists and other health care practitioners frequently purchase the Eye Rest Pads and Headache Pads for their patients to enjoy during treatment. Natural Touch pads and pillows are the best!”

"Customers love the beautiful fabrics, the flexibility and different sizes of bags. The natural hot/cold packs hold heat or cold temperatures gently and for an extensive amount of time."

I’ve been a client of Natural Touch since 2002. I supply the products to my massage therapy clients who use them in the treatment of pain and restriction of movement. I have also given them as gifts to every member of my family. I personally use the Neck Soothing Pad each night when I arrive home and am preparing supper. It helps me shift gears from work to family and prevents any build-up of tension in my neck and shoulders. In the winter months, I settle my children into bed each night with their own Body Soothing Pad. These individually hand-crafted pads are of exceptional quality. The fabrics chosen to cover the bags are just beautiful and in my experience, when I’m not feeling well or just need that comfort of heat, beautiful counts. Thanks Linda for a great product!

The Soothing Pads from Natural Touch have been a miracle relief for our family. Our Headache Pad has been nicknamed ‘Buddy for Life’. Nothing is more soothing when your head is throbbing than a cool Headache Pad resting over your eyes and forehead. The pads have been wonderful for stress relief and prolonged knee injuries. Most evenings, my routine is to relax with a Neck Pad to relieve the stresses of the day and a cool Knee Pad to reduce inflammation and instantly relieve pain. Our household has come to rely on these wonderful products from Natural Touch, with almost daily use. We would be lost without them. As for the Child’s Pain Pad, trust me, this is an awesome product that has relieved many a crying child at our house.”
