Microwavable Heating Pads for Lower Back, Neck, and Shoulder Pain Relief - Moist Microwave Heating Pad for Muscles and Joints - Microwave Hot Pack Heat Pad for Cramps - 1 Heat Pack Blue

Bought this for my mother to aid recovery from a broken shoulder joint. She is delighted with it and finds that it stays warm for a good period (20mins plus) and that the weight keeps it in place well. Good long length. Also great that the contents (grain) do not ‘migrate’ to the ends but stay evenly spread through the pad. Only had it about 10 days so can’t comment on lifespan yet.

Bought the pad 2 years ago and it's given excellent service so I considered buying another one. What a shock when I saw the price. Just over £17 in 2022 and now £45.

This is really worked to get rid of any kinks in my lower back

I bought this for a relative who suffers from arthritis. It gives her pain relief from the warmth and is easy to use. Very happy with this product 😀

Didn't use it much because of the faint porridge smell it had when you heated it. If you've got a neck injury and love porridge then jackpot.

This is a good length and heavy so good for wrapping around things for the heat to mask any pain, I have a sensitive bladder and often lay it across my stomach to mask any sensations and so therefore get a better sleep as I am not disturbed. Also good for it just adding a bit of comfort to encourage sleeping. It shouldn't be heated past the recommendations or you risk burning it. I fold it over with the cotton side on the outside and lay it on a solid tray in the microwave - if you lay it on a metal grill type tray that will burn the wrap and the cotton will break, so killing the wrap. I've killed a couple like this, but since I've been using the solid glass tray it's lasted several years so far.

The best that i have ever tried or had, as this is not only of a very good quality but much longer than most and enhanced by the straps!! Excellent Product.

An excellent product which has helped the pain on my twisted spine and arthritic shoulders immeasurably. I now have two of these wraps and use them constantly. Thank you SO much!!

Ce n'est pas un mauvais produit mais je trouve qu'il a du mal a chauffer, peut etre parce qu'il ne contient pas de la graine de lin a 100% mais un mélange avec du riz. Pour ces raisons également il sort un peu humide du micro onde

I have used rice heating pads in the past, and enjoyed them. Previously, I had used the style that is wider and shorter, and is only made to be worn over the shoulders like a yoke. I had priced this style out on Amazon a while back and only saw them for $30+. I'm not sure how I missed this one; perhaps it wasn't available yet, or perhaps I dismissed it out of hand because of the shape. Then my sister was over the other day with hers, and I was sold pretty much immediately. The width is more than sufficient for my purposes. The shape and length are great, and allow you to use it a couple different ways, unlike the style I was used to. It's especially nice to wear it draped over one shoulder so that it can reach down your back. It's large enough that it feels slightly weighted, which I think makes it feel even more comfortable/relaxing. I also love the little handles on both ends. The instructions say you can rub in essential oils to the fleece side for aromatherapy. I don't do straight up essential oils, but I AM a fan of indie perfumes (and haven't been able to use them on my skin for a while, since I was recently pregnant and am now breastfeeding). I love to be able to put my perfumes on it so I can enjoy them without putting them straight on my skin. Also: there is a spot that both me and my sister always get a knot on our shoulder/back. This thing really "hits the spot" (ha, ha). I never considered getting a heat pack that could reach it, so this thing is just really fantastic. Note I just got this item, but I'll update the review if I have longevity issues.

Works as advertised. Simple and easy to use, while retaining heat well. The straps are a bonus

I ordered this heating pad for my feet. Bad circulation, no doubt. I throw it in bed to warm my feet at night. It works great, retains the heat for an hour, by then I'm asleep. So for this purpose, it's great. I do think it's quite heavy so can't imagine wanting it around my neck or on shoulders. The weight would be too much for me, but for warming up my feet, it does the trick. I actually nuke it for 2-1/2 minutes and that works perfectly.

This heating/cooling pad is a good shape to wrap around your neck but I wish it was just a little longer. It is durable, and the seams are well sewn. Set it on a clean plate and heat it in the microwave. How long? Depends on your microwave, their power varies. After some experimenting I found the sweet spot for time. It feels greats on a sore neck. We've also used it to cool a swollen ankle. Put it in a sealed ziplock bag while it's in the freezer. Again, I wish it was a little longer to wrap on an ankle. In summary, it could be longer and it would be better if it had a removeable, washable cloth cover.
