Review on Moist Heat Therapy Wrap With Ties For Back, Hips, And Shoulders - Activated By Microwave. Measures 7" X 12". by Brandon Wong

My wife is 5-months pregnant with twins and started to experience major back pain. For a couple of weeks, we were using one of those blue hot/cold gel packs where we had to boil the water, put the gel pack in for a few minutes, then wrap it around a towel and I would have to apply it. The warmth of the gel pack lasted no longer than 8-10 minutes. Then, I was doing some research on heating pads and found this. Incredible! Although the instructions states that we should heat it in the microwave for 1 minute, 30 seconds, we found that 1 minute was sufficient. An extra 30 seconds was too hot. The best things about this product is that it doesn't burn your skin and it wraps around your waist. Both my wife and I are extremely happy with this product. We would recommend this to any pregnant woman who experiences back pain. Of course, it's only a temporary relief, but it really helped alleviate the pain for my wife.
