Pain Relief Heat Patch, Muscular Aches, Pains, Joint Stiffness (Pack of 4 Patches)

Recently I have been enduring a second bout of 'rotator cuff' pain or something very similar. Initially I reached for some pretty strong pain killers but they just didn't seem to work that well and I was concerned about using pain killers potentially for quite a long time. The information about this condition seemed to be saying that warmth or cold treatment could help ... so without much optimism I bought some Deep Heat patches. Well ... all I can say is that for me ... and I emphasise for me ... the patches really work. Even with the top of the front shoulder joint not being the easiest place to stick a patch onto ... I managed OK and varied the position a bit with each new patch. At night I took the recommendations and put the patch onto the shoulder of my pyjama top. Whether directly on the skin or on a lightweight garment ... I have found that these patches really do work. Importantly these patches do not get 'hot' ... just a nice degree of warmth and as it can be put exactly on the point where the pain is worst it really is surprisingly comforting and it does reduce pain. The patch takes a few minutes to warm up after the backing is removed ... but you can stick it on immediately. The warmth lasted all night and well into the next day. In the early stages when the pain was 'dire' I put a light cardigan over my top and that helped conserve the warmth. I have been using the patches for a good 2 weeks and am at the stage where I have generally pretty good of my arm back altho I am being very careful in what I do. I am stocked up with Deep Heat Pain Relief Patches just in case ... and I highly recommend them as a drug free and very effective pain relief. I hope this feedback may help others coping with shoulder injuries ... do give these patches a try they are surprisingly effective.

Work well and stay stuck on, however did feel there could have potentially been a greater degree of heat felt.

These patches work very well. They target the swelling, reducing the pain and easing the muscles also. The patches are quite large and those that stick directly to your skin work better and stay in place much longer. They are also well priced to.

My son said they didn't work. I had a sacroilliac issue and decided to try these. It's not what I expected, I just assumed they would be menthol-like deep heat. The patch is warm, so it keeps the sore area slightly warm all day and it did relieve some of the ache, but you might still need to supplement with pain relief. If you are using this for a pinched nerve, don't bother, pinched nerves need the signal to be targeted and dulled, so this is good for a muscular ache but not pinched nerve. Would I buy this again? Probably not, I will just use the smelly Deep Heat stuff. But I've had the patch on for the entire day and it wasn't until I removed it to shower that I could really feel how warm the patch actually was. It was useful, just not for me.

Hmmm, I wish I’d read the reviews first. Disappointed - had high hopes from this brand but the patches are inconsistent for the heat they produce (third one I applied, no heat at all); and all are consistently poor adhesively. Sadly, I don’t recommend. Worse still, did not realise but you can’t return them - disgraceful

My mums uses this for her leg pain and it each patch works well and for a long time too. Good value of money compared purchasing it at the pharmacy. Size is good, last long. Easy to use (just stick it on)

Provides excellent pain relief where it's required

Good but I prefer the back patches which I can’t get now

Lorsque j'applique cette pommade, elle réagi rapidement en atténuant l'inflammation.

They didn't stick to my back and the filling just all fell to the bottom. These had likely been stored in the heat. Tried one the rest will go in the refuse

Over the past four years I have developed a very severe case of rheumatoid arthritis. Recently I had been able to get only three hours of interrupted sleep all night because I kept waking up with very severe pain across both shoulders, and even a prescription painkiller was not always very effective. I tried these patches, one on each shoulder...and the very first night I slept the entire night through, and I woke up with no pain in my shoulders. Since then I have used these patches frequently, and each time they have been very, very effective. Using them has helped put my life on a much more normal track because I am rested and have less pain;therefore, I have reliable energy for my daytime activities again.

Mio figlio me ne portò 2 da Londra, della stessa marca e mi riscaldavano la schiena sul serio, questi no.

A éviter ! Aucune chaleur. La pommade de cette marque est très bien mais les patchs ne servent à rien.
