Magic Gel Ice Pack for Back Pain Relief | 2 Pack Reusable Lower Back Wrap for Hot or Cold Therapy | Relief for Lower Lumbar, Sciatic Nerve, Herniated or Degenerative Disc, Coccyx, Tailbone Pain

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Price is very affordable and it came with 2 fold/hot packsQuality:This is a life changer, the quality is great. It’s only my second day using it so hopefully it holds up. But so far it is amazing! Definitely love that it came with 2 packs, because I need to do heat & ice throughout the day on my lower back. That usually isn’t possible when I have to stay sitting with the heating pad while also trying to chase a 7 month old crawling everywhere haha. This is just what I needed! I know it won’t cure me, but it sure helps a lot more than doing nothing or having to sit while I ice and heat my back.

Required to lie on my back on an ice pack several times a day, I found our gel packs were hard and uncomfortable on the sensitive area as thoughoverfilled..We purchased this product and found it thoughtfully designed and manufactured. It comes with two gel packs so one may always ready for use. One may be heated in a microwave and instructions are printed directly on that gel pack for easy access. Both fit into a lightweight belt designed to hold ice in place. It is not too cold to use without a wrap.It is Soft and comfortable. Perfect in the small of the back, but could have application elsewhere.It is well-made with quality materials.We gladly recommend this product.

Nice and easy to use.. I do feel that the cold does not last as long as I wish. That flexibility while wearing as good. I feel the size is true to size. Seam seems to hold up well.

I had to have emergency spinal surgery and knew I’d want and need heat and ice for my recovery. This fits the bill for both! I love that it comes with two. You can alternate between hot and cold that way, though I tend to use them both for cold. The fabric is thick enough to be strong and durable, but not so thick as to feel cumbersome. The Velcro on it is designed so that it can fit a wide variety of different sizes of people too.

I bought my first Magic Gel belt Feb 2023. I just bought another one (Sept 2024) so the belt & ice packs work for a long time. I fully expect this one will last another year & a half. I use this belt on my hips & lower back all day, every day. It's very adjustable. I like that I can wear it more on one hip or the other, on my lower back & even higher up on my back...wherever I'm hurting the most at the time. I also like that this belt is quick & easy to take on & off.While I'm wearing one ice pack, the other is in the freezer. I usually wear leggings & a t-shirt so I hang a folded dish towel on the inside of the belt to temper the cold then pull it out as the pack gets more comfy. When it loses its cool, I switch & the other pack is ready to roll. On average, I switch these 2 ice packs 3 to 4 times a day (using each pack 2x). It totally helps to keep the pain meds to a minimum.When I leave the house I'm wearing one ice pack so I put the extra one in a small cooler between some similar-sized generic ones so I can switch them out all day long while I'm on the go. It is important to point out that I don't wear this belt at night. That's just not a good idea but PM is when I use the hands-down best roll-on that has msm (absorbs the med & smell into the muscle in <30 seconds) & glucosamine that absolutely DOES Stopain (that's not a typo)..SKIP THIS PART IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW HOW WELL THIS BELT WORKS ON SEVERE PAIN. So I have severe sciatic entrapment in BOTH hips. I was born with it. It's inoperable. The sciatic nerve is webbed with the piriformis & gluteus medius muscles. All 3 are pulling in different directions. The forces were torquing up my spine. Nobody believed me until I needed a lumbar fusion because the deformity was literally twisting my L5 & L4 vertebrae around. The fusion fixed my lower back but locked the forces down in my hips causing agony there. That gave me an answer right there so I found an awesome hip doc who found the problem & has had to surgically tack my left gluteus medius back onto my hip because it was tearing away from the bone (which feels like a red-hot knife stabbing you). Believe it or not, the fusion was way easier to get over than the hip surgery.TMI? Too bad because for no darn reason, I had an L1 fracture a year ago & I don't even have osteoporosis. That caused L2 & L3 bulging discs & significantly narrowed foramen (holes) where the sciatic nerve exits the spine that are now severely pinching the nerve. So now I have severe sciatic pain from pulling AND pinching...yeah, me! I'm scheduled for a fusion on a fusion where all of that extra pain-causing stuff will be repaired & stabilized later this month by the same great fusion doc as before. I'm counting down the days until I ONLY have the hip pain that I was born with, LOL.Now it makes perfect sense why I could NOT do splits to try out for cheerleading in high school. Why it got too painful to ride my horse. Why I couldn't ride behind my hubby on a motorcycle so I got my own. Squatting pain & not being able to lean forward to ease the pain is a big clue that you have some kind of piriformis issue. Aqua therapy wasn't helpful because all I wanted to do was bend forward in 4 feet of water, blub-blub. Many years, quacks & expensive tests later, my hip doc found this deformity on, are you ready? An X-RAY! Where's an eye-rolling emoji when you need one?Told you that you might learn something. If not you, maybe this info will help someone you know. I hope this gem of a belt helps you as much as it helps me!

I have a lot of lower back pain. This has been a wonderful purchase. I alternate hot and cold. One pack goes in the freezer while I use the other for heat. This enables me to move around while treating the pain. I'm not confined to a chair or laying in the floor. I also use it on my upper thigh. It freezes quickly and stays cold for a long time. Follow the heat directions as it heats quickly.

I really like this and use it often. I can wear it while doing other things. It stays on! It did smell (chemical) when I first got it… but I put it in the sun for a few hours and it has been fine since.

The picture shows that this goes around the lower back. I could not get it to stay around my lower back. It kept riding up to my waist. I finally just un-Velcro’s it and put it where I wanted it when I was sitting only.Every time I got up to go do something, though. I had to leave it in my chair. If I left it Velcro closed around my lower back, as I was walking around, it just rode up to my waist. Reurned
