Customer Reviews of Duro-Med Therabeads Neck Pain Relief Pack with Cover
Customer Review: Need to wait 2 HOURS between uses! ...
Summary: 3 Stars
If you are looking for a constant source of heat that will last more than 15 minutes, this is NOT your product. If you've ever tried the "home remedy" equivalent to this microwave heat pad (uncooked rice in a sock then microwaved) it is about the same. The major (or minor depending on how you look at it) difference between the two is that this product does produce "moist heat" (the rice does not). However one MAJOR drawback of this product (which you won't read anywhere in the descriptions, until you buy it and get it home) is that you need to WAIT 2 HOURS before you can use it again. Since the heat only lasts about 15 minutes, it is a major hassle (for me) to wait 2 hours before microwaving it again! If you can get by with 15 minutes of heat only (then a 2 hr wait), and need the "moist heat" aspect... this product works as advertised. If you are like me and were looking for something to provide heat for more than 15 minutes, then try the rice in sock. At least after the heat wares off, you can pop it back into the microwave and use it again.Customer Review: It works, but....

I am disappointed in this product. It is too long, and does not wrap up close around the neck. The velcro straps snag on the white fabric of the wrap. The cover is not microwavable, so you have to remove it and then slide the wrap back inside the cover, keeping the velcro tabs from snagging on the fabric or the cover. If it was shorter in length I could ignore the other minor problems. The pack does provide moist heat that feels great.Customer Review: Yoga teacher loves this heating pad!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
My chiropractor gave this to me when my neck was in bad shape. I've been using it several times a week for the past three years. You only need to heat it up for a little less than 2 minutes, and when it cools down just heat it back up. Since I'm small I use it around my lower back as well.
P.s If you workout a lot this product is a MUST. My husband started using it too.
Customer Review: This product is truly a gift to neck pain sufferers
Summary: 5 Stars
If used correctly (and the directions are simple) this product works very well. The reviewer who compares this to the old rice remedy is truly doing a diservice to this product and the thousands of people who can substantially alleviate their pain from it.
Many of my elderly patients experience neck pain and I have never heard anything but raves about this product.
Customer Review: Therabeads neck pack
Summary: 3 Stars
I've had a number of these Therabeads neck packs over the years and bought this one because it looked exactly like the ones I have purchased at my local medical supply store but this one was cheaper. This one is too stiff, is thinner and does not lie along my neck like it should. It also does not heat as well as the ones I have had previously. I'll be buying local from now on.
