ThermaCare Air-Activated Neck to Arm Heatwraps, 3-Count Boxes Review

I use the Neck Wraps on my abdomen to relieve menstrual cramps. I have found the ones for the neck and shoulders to be the perfect shape and size for my stomach.

I have a hard time taking medicine and can't swallow pills, so the heatwraps are an amazing solution for cramps! They are self-heating and air activated, so I am not tied down by the cord of a heating pad. The heat lasts for up to 8 hours, which is long enough for me to get work done and go about my day-to-day business without the inteference of pain. They are thin enough to go under my clothes with no one noticing it's there (except not under super tight shirts). The adhesive is strong, so the wraps stay put. It's also more painful than a bandaid when you're ready to take it off.

The heat wraps can be a little expensive and generally have only 2 to 3 per box, but I only use 1 a month. They are perfect for mild cramps, and work best when a wrap is placed on at the first onset of pain. If I wait until the pain is really bad, then it's too much for just a heatwrap to help.

Do NOT wear for more than 8 hours in any 24-hour period (as said on the box.)
