“Helps pain after recurring lumbar epidural and sacroiliac joint steroid injections. I like the versatility of hot or cold, and the second gel pack.I worried about the waistband before buying, as I am 5'5" tall and weigh 220 lbs so pretty big, but it fits my 47" hips with some room left.Only negatives are I wish it got a bit warmer and retained heat longer. The velcro is a little itchy unless you wear a thin shirt under it which is difficult with the SI joints.”
“Chiropractor told me I had to ice 5 times a day. This thing was a life saver. Allowed me to ice my lower back and still get things done around the house. Also great for when you're just laying on the couch because it stays in place and you don't have to keep adjusting like you would with a regular ice pack.”
“The coolness is perfect!Great having 2 ice packages! Molds or conforms easily around the hip/back area. The belt stretch is comfortable!I wish I weighed have found this years ago! I have chronic lower back and sciatic pain.”
“I purchase this lumbar cold/heat belt for my 82 yr old mother who has has over the years had lower back surgery, a medtronic implant and arthritis. She loves it. For years, she was using a wet towel folded and frozen flat in a ziploc bag and lying on it on the sofa. It didn't take long for it to no longer be cold and limited her moving around as did other gel packs. My mother is very active and while a break to lay down is much deserved at times this allows her to move around the house and still get therapeutic relief.”
“I cannot stand to sit still, even when in pain. I have a 14 acre horse ranch to maintain and this ice pack makes it possible to get my work done and ice my inflammation areas at the same time. I can't even tell you how much I love it! I LOVE it!”
“This brace stays in place I like that this brace came with two inserts. I use one for heat and one for cold. This also hits the coccyz as well as the lumbar area. I also use this when I exercise and it does not hinder my movements on the treadmill or when I do weights. I give it a thumbs up for sure.”
