3 Differences Between Wet Wrapping and One Dry Garment, and the One Nobody Warns You About
The thing nobody warns you about is the temperature. Warm water goes on and is cold within a minute.
The thing nobody warns you about is the temperature.
Warm water goes on and is cold within a minute. Then someone has to lie still inside something cold for an hour and a half, every night.

1. Nothing to soak
No kettle, no bowl, no wringing over a sink.
The soaking is where the evening starts to slip. It has to be done at the right moment, in the right room, to the right dampness, before anyone gets bored.
2. Nothing cold
A dry garment goes on at room temperature and warms against the skin in a couple of minutes.
A wet layer is cold for a physical reason. As water evaporates from fabric it takes heat with it, which is the cooling effect clinicians want during a flare, and exactly why it is so hard to sit through on an ordinary winter evening.
3. No second layer
One garment, a few seconds, and bedtime is bedtime again. Emollient, garment, story, lights off.
The dry outer layer of a wet wrap is there to hold everything in place. The Day Sock's bonded inner face does that holding by itself.

| Wet wrapping | One dry garment |
|---|---|
| Kettle, bowl, wringing | Nothing to soak |
| Cold within a minute | Warms in a couple of minutes |
| Two layers and a timer | One layer |
| Cools during a flare | Does not cool |
Same holding principle. One object. If a wet wrap has been advised for a flare, keep to that advice.
