Heat Patches for Body Pain Relief - 20 Disposable Heating Pads for Back Pain - Knee Muscle Heat Patch Air Activated Adhesive - Period or Menstrual Cramps Therapy Heatwraps by Sunnybay (20 Packs)

I suffer from severe and chronic pelvic pain from Endometriosis. Having heat on the area where it hurts most makes me able to move around and get some relief from pain. I have used Thermacare menstrual patches FOREVER! I thought they were the best, until I tried these! First, these patches get warm, but not so warm it makes your skin sweat and causes burns and burn marks, which Thermacare patches did to me all the time. Second, these come in two patches per pack, i stick two of them together and stick inside my pants and they NEVER bunch up and the adhesive never wears off, whereas Thermacare ones were always bunching/crumpling up and always falling off. And last thing is price! $20 for 40 patches is incredible compared to $8 for 3 Thermacare patches. I found these in a desperate search because of the cost of Thermacare and tired of being burned all the time. These patches are wonderful at helping my pain, they stay on, never burn me; they help me very much in my battle with pelvic pain. Tip: I take both out the package and lay one over the other to form this nice round patch and it covers a good area where my pain is the worst and stay there all day! If you suffer from pelvic pain or cramps, DEFINITELY give these a try!!!!

Patches heat enough to reduce the pain, even though they don't get very hot and the thermal effect just lasts about 8 hours. Also, they should be packed individually, since the other patch left in the bag has to go to waste without being used because it's still gets activated with air.

I purchased these as a cheaper alternative to the ThermaCare heating pads, largely encouraged by all the positive reviews I saw. After trying two of the sets of pads I concluded that these pads really don’t get past very mildly warm at best, even after leaving them exposed to air for a long while to heat up. Would not purchase again as they didn’t get hot enough to provide any substantial pain relief. Good if you want a pad that just gets a little warm.

Great product! I was looking for a cheaper alternative to the ThermaCare patches and these work really well. I like that I can place them exactly where I want. They don’t get as hot as the ThermaCare patches but they’re a lot less bulky so I don’t feel as self-conscious wearing them. Definitely going to keep buying these!Also, big shout-out to Sharon in Marketing whose hilarious email prompted me to write this review. I honestly do like these patches, but I have a bad habit of not writing reviews. So thanks for making me smile today; I hope this makes you all smile too!

These were OK? The shapes made it weird to get them attached, and they definitely didn't get as warm as I'd hoped or last as long. I had to apply a second get a little after midday - so closer to the 4 hours than the 4-6 the packaging said. Still it's better than nothing, and they were much less expensive than the thermacare ones I've bought in the past.

Did not stick after removed ... did not heat immediately

I use one package with two curved pads and put one on one knee and other on the other knee, I put one on like a horse shoe pointed ends pointed up and around knee. It not only puts heat on the knee but helps support the knee joint as well. Sometimes I use paper tape to hold it more secure as I bend my knee so much it tends to sometimes not hold as well. I would like to see more adhesive on patch if possible. What a relief to my aching knees. I hope they could make them for this purpose only as their is no other patch shaped like this.Maybe send me some packages for my new idea for use. lol

My girlfriend has a lot of pain during her period and typically uses a bag filled with rice. I wanted to get her something that she could carry around in her purse and use in public if she ever needed it so I purchased these for her. She says that they work like a charm! They get very warm, almost hot, and have been great at relaxing her muscles and easing her pain.
