Cura-Heat Neck and Shoulder Pain Direct-to-Skin, Pack of 3

A lot of these other reviews are misleading, the strip is not meant to be fully sticky, only the edges stick to your skin. The patches are air activated when you open the pouch not when you peel the sticky back off.

Stayed hotter for a lot longer than I thought they would, got most of the day with heat! Sticking power not that good tho so wear some clothing that will keep pad in place.

Works a treat but needed extra sticky tape to secure it safely

If I could have gave them 0 stars I would have! I use heat pads alot I like the cura heat pads singular as in the small square ones they seem to stick well and have a good heat. These ones for the shoulder area are AWFUL there is hardly any adhesive to stick to clothes or to the skin, they came with 3 in a box and I tried to use the 3 of them with none of them sticking and the heat wasn't great atall, I didn't even get from my bathroom to my bedroom without it falling off (and believe me I don't live in a mansion). I would love to have had a refund on this product and if I could pass on any advice it would be to not waste your money and maybe to stick to the cura single square heat pads rather than these. I was not happy and after trying to persist that the pad would stick I actually hurt myself more trying to put it on so not only was I out of pocket my arm was nearly out my socket, a big shoulder heat pad with an inch or 2 of adhesive to stick...will not make it stick so the whole 3 were in the bin as NONE OF THEM WORKED. Money down the drain!

This review is for the Cura-Heat Neck and Shoulder Pain Direct-to-Skin, Pack of 3. I suffer from muscle spasms a lot so I invest a lot in preventative measures to keep my muscles relaxed. Heat packs is one of those things I invest in. This was a much-needed item however it does not adhere well to skin as it is only sticky at the far ends, not all the way around the patch. As it is so long, it is bulky which means it sags in the middle and eventually comes off. I am a regular buyer of the Cura-Heat back patches that go on your clothing and find those to be far more effective for upper shoulder pain because they stay in place. I would recommend those over these if you don’t mind having a visible heat patch on the outside of your clothing.
