Neck and Shoulder Pain Relief Heating Pad by TheraPAQ - Best for Natural Moist Heat Therapy or as Cold Pack - Reusable, Microwave Heated Wrap - Non-Scented (Black)

Excellent seller, can't fault their service at all, only comment I would make and it is related to the product, is that my wife thought it was a little on the heavy side, which I guess is needed to make the contact with the skin and keep it in place. Already having a bad shoulder this made it a little uncomfortable to begin with. However, once the pain has eased this issue goes away and it definitely works to relieve the pain for her, she uses it regularly as has an ongoing problem. Have only used hot so cannot comment about use as an Ice pack but suspect it would be just as good.

I bought this product as I needed to replace an old microwaveable wheat neck pad. I have a very painful, stiff neck and my physiotherapist recommended that I use heat on it in-between physio sessions. I noted that a number of reviewers mentioned the weight of the neck and shoulder pad, and it is very heavy and bulky on the sections that wrap around the front of your neck. For me the weight is manageable, although I understand that the weight is an issue for some people. What I like about the heat pad is that it retains its heat for quite a long time, and if you sit still it remains in position across your back and around your neck. However, if you walk about, the heat pad slides away from your neck. The best way to use this heat pad is to take a seat, relax and let the heat pad do its work of soothing away your aches and pains.

It has no odour which is great, material is lovely and soft, easy to heat, haven't tried cold, it is rather heavy! And too be honest weighed my neck down, which made it worse, so had to lie down with it on, which is not always ideal! However what works for one may not work for another, good price so may be worth a try?

Such a great design I loved the weight it really helped my shoulders and neck and stayed warm for ages

Heats up lovely in the microwave does heat up your body soothes and aids comfort heat does not last long but it does give you relief

It is an easy to use heated collar. I bought one for my husband and he says although it gets hots quickly in the microwave it is very heavy on his neck and shoulders. I won’t buy another one.

This relieved the pain because of the heat but added to it because of the weight

This was purchased because I have sciatic nerve issues in my neck and shoulders. I was a bit nervous with the device using clay balls instead of the nornal wheat. But the clay based balls work well and hold the heat possibly a little little longer (two minutes maximum in the microwave). you have to make sure when you remove the pad from the microwave you disperse the balls evenly before you apply. This pad has worked very well and after several days my neck and should alrewady feel a lot better. An excellent product and very comfortable to wear with the fleece covering.
