Product Safety and Materials
Every material in the patch, how to wear it safely, and what to do if your skin reacts.
Last updated: 18 August 2026
What is in it
The complete list, with nothing omitted:
- Hypoallergenic polyethylene film
- Medical grade acrylic adhesive, latex free
- Pigment for the raised shape
No drugs, vitamins, herbs, essential oils, magnets, batteries or electronics. Nothing crosses your skin, because there is nothing in it that could.
Using it safely
- Apply to clean, dry, intact skin only.
- Never over a wound, a rash, a dressing, or another adhesive device.
- Rotate where you wear it. Daily wear on the same square inch is the one real risk with any adhesive product.
- Single use. They are not designed to be re-stuck and the ridge picks up lint.
- Remove it if it becomes uncomfortable.
Skin reactions
The adhesive is panel tested for irritation, but any adhesive can irritate some skin. If you get redness, itching or a rash, take it off and stop using it.
Message us and we refund the pack. No photographs, no questions. If a reaction is severe or does not settle, see a pharmacist or doctor.
Who should be careful
- Children under 3: keep the pack away from them. The patches are a choking hazard.
- Children generally: we do not market to children.
- Pregnancy: there is nothing to absorb, but for anything pregnancy related please ask your midwife or doctor rather than a website.
- Fragile or broken skin, or known adhesive allergy: do not use.
The breathing exercises carry their own cautions, which are separate from the patch and more important. Read the Health Disclaimer.
Quality and faults
If a patch will not stick, or you cannot find the raised shape by touch after a week, that is a manufacturing fault on our side and not a failing on yours. Tell us and we replace the pack.
Storage and disposal
Store at room temperature, out of direct sunlight. Used patches go in general waste. The outer carton is recyclable card.
