The Ideal Radiation Essentials Box Includes:

Aluminum Free Deodorant
During radiation therapy, many radiation oncologists discourage the use of standard drugstore deodorants that contain aluminum. There are a variety of reasons, like concerns that the aluminum could interfere with radiation dosage, or that the interaction between radiation and aluminum could irritate sensitive radiated skin. Regardless, switching to an aluminum-free deodorant is an easy way to comply with this directive without succumbing to stinky sweat stains. Humble Brands all natural deodorants provide a gentle application with a light lavender scent. Best of all, it actually works – no sweat stains!

Botanical Burn Balm
Did you know that LOTION is the #1 requested item from Cancer Patients?
Our friends at Polish Your Parts developed this calendula infused balm specifically with radiation patients in mind. Properties in the calendula root are known to alleviate the sting in burns. The balm is easy to apply and should soothe sensitive skin.
⚠️ Allergen Notice: This product contains Black Cumin Seed Oil (black seed oil). May contain traces of nuts — please consult your physician before use if you have a nut allergy.

Calendula Soap
Calendula oil is known for its anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties. This soap smells fantastic and should be gentle on tender skin.


No Sweat Ice Pack
Cancer Patients rate ice packs in their TOP 5 most requested items. These are the ideal size for chemo port and radiation-sized burns. The sweat-free ice packs do not leave damp marks on clothes. Plus, they are large enough to provide relief, yet small enough to stay ‘hidden’ under an arm or tucked into clothing. *Ice Pack design may vary
Dimensions:
- 7" x 4" x .25" // 18 cm x 10 cm x .6 cm
- 185 Grams // 6.2 fl oz

Seat Belt Shield
Seat belts are an unexpected challenge for breast cancer patients. Unfortunately, seat belts tend to rub directly against the most tender part of a breast-cancer patient's torso while undergoing (and recovering from) surgery and radiation treatment. Simply insert the pillow between you and your seat belt and TA-DA – pain free driving! *Pillow fabric color may vary

Lip Balm
Dry, cracked, and painful lips are a common side effect of chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
Knowing cancer treatments can make even light scents unbearable, these unscented lip balms from Polish Your Parts are a great option for cancer patients. Formulated with organic and natural ingredients, Lip Lovin’ lip balms provide comforting moisture to dry and sensitive lips.

The Cancer Card
Living with cancer stinks – but there IS one teeny tiny silver lining: The Cancer Card. Flash your official membership card to the closest friend or family member and VOILA – skip annoying tasks and activities! (Hint: We've heard it works well with laundry folding, grocery runs and dish washing.)
The Ideal Radiation Comprehensive Box Includes ALL items in Essentials PLUS:

Tea Time
One of the most common cancer treatment side effects is fatigue. It is critical to employ self-care when feeling worn down. This charming little teapot, cookies, and flavored Tea Drops branded teas provide a perfect little midday respite. *Tea and cookie flavors may vary.

Do you ship internationally?
The Balm Box can ship some items internationally. We work through an international shipping partner, who does not allow us to ship food or essential oils. Therefore, we modified our core product line to follow those parameters. Furthermore, currently we are only able to ship to Canada, Ireland, United Kingdom, and the European Union.
You can find our international product line here. Be sure to select the correct currency of the ship-to destination. Select currency from the drop down menu on the bottom left hand corner of the footer bar. Once the currency is selected, all available gift boxes will appear on the page.
