We had been using a similar product when in the hospital. I ordered these in a hurry so they would arrive when we were released. I had not noticed the ones at the hospital were marked “medium heat”. In comparison to those these get much hotter. I like heat and find myself having to remove these for a few seconds to “cool off”. With that being said I wish the heat lasted longer. I go through several to get 20min if heat.
These are absolutely wonderful! I am in the hospital a lot and they won't allow me to have a heating pad that I use throughout the day at home. I bought these and throw a few in my bag before I go. They barely make a noise when you pop them. A roommate wouldn't even ask what that is because it's so quiet. It covers a good part of my back and does get very hot. The first 5 minutes or so I keep it over my shirt and then once it cools a little I put it directly on my skin.
Years ago the hospital had these and after about 30 minutes they would cool off and turn hard as a rock. What I really like about this newer version is they stay warm long past their 30 minute "life". They keep my body heat and stay soft so they actually work for about an hour. The price is great for the amount you get and I would recommend these to anyone!
These work well. They are hot and last long enough. It takes quite a bit of pressure to get the chemicals to mix to generate the heat. At first I was worried about splitting the bag from the amount of pressure I used. But I have not had nay bags rupture. They work well.
Relief! I have several chronic pain conditions and these help so much . So good for neck and lower back pain. They stay hot for hours and hours.
Once you get the hang of activating them by popping the internal bladder allowing the chemicals to mix and heat up - they work very well

Description
Instant hot packs provide soothing warmth to injured areas.
I bought this one for my son’s volunteer trip to a Columbia village. This is donated this to the kids over there. It seems very good.
Great product, company, price and customer service.
Ease the swelling and pain of sciatica, arthritis or other health issues
I bought these for the Standing Rock protesters fighting the Dakota Pipeline. They won! So I suppose these made a difference. :)
This product has one major advantage, it is very fast. Heat is immediate. The problem is that these are not re-usable and they do not put out that much total heat. The heat fades very quickly and never gets very hot. Re-usable acetate hot packs are better but not as fast. For fast applications this cannot be beat but acetate heat packs may be a better choice.
