Warm Body Mat will warm you up in the cooler months while Cool Gelmat will help you to stay cool in the summer. However the benefits of Cool Gelmat and Warm Body Mat  products do not end there.

Developed in Japan, the Cool Gelmat is a patented mat that you can place on top of your mattress or under your sheet, and when you lie on it you will enjoy a virtually instant cooling effect – and the best part is that no refrigeration is required, it re-cools itself naturally in the same time it takes to heat up.

The unique heat absorbing gel within the mat absorbs body heat, reducing your temperature and allowing you to enjoy a cool, relaxing and comfortable nights rest.

Offering a solution to a variety of people’s needs, the Cool Gelmat may also work to comfort and ease the symptoms of menopausal women and aged care residents with restless leg syndrome.

“The Cool Gelmat absorbs the heat from your body and transfers that heat into the cool gelmat.

It also has the ability to re-cool itself back to its original state without refrigeration guaranteed to do this for a minimum three years.

Cool Gelmat Australia director, Tim Simon, tells DPS News the Cool Gelmat may also help heating issues associated with Parkinson’s disease patients who can tend to “overheat”.

The product may also ease heating symptoms for diabetics, Multiple Sclerosis sufferers and those who are obese.

Feeling a little cold?

Warm Body Mat, which is also a patented mat which can be placed on a bed mattress, provides a warming effect due to heat absorbing bubbles that attract body heat  warming you gently all night long.

Mr Simon says about 10% of house fires are due to electric blankets. “Electric blankets are illegal in aged care facilities, so the Warm Body Mat is an ideal solution in keeping residents warm as it only uses heat from the body with no external electricity or batteries,” he says.

“Warm Body Mat may also benefit residents who experience circulation problems and arthritis. “It’s fantastic for these residents because  Warm Body Mat provides long lasting controlled warmth that may allow greater muscle relaxation and greater blood flow to extremities, hands and feet. Muscle aches and night cramping may also be reduced.”

Toast those buns!

Warm Body Mat Australia also recently released ‘Toasty Buns’, which is a seat warmer that works by retaining your body’s own natural warmth. Similar to the Warm Bodymat, thousands of isolated bubbles capture and accumulate body heat and prevent cold air from circulating. It  too does not rely on electricity, making it safe and portable. It may also reduce expensive power bills, making Toasty Buns both cost effective and environmentally friendly. Major aged care company Primelife are the first to embrace the Cool Gelmat and Warm Body Mat products with commencing a set trial across selected Victorian facilities.

With longevity guaranteed, the new Cool Gelmat products are endorsed by Australian TV presenter and model Nicky Buckley. “Nicky only promotes products she truly believes in and loves,” Mr Simon claims.
