Best Heat Pads for Neck Pain

Neck pain can be caused by all sorts of things – from sitting at your desk all day to sleeping in an awkward position at night. Whatever the cause, neck pain can be extremely debilitating, making every facet of your life more difficult, so it's important to get it sorted out right away. At Health and Care, we stock a range of heating pads that are specially designed to tackle stiffness and pain in your neck, so if you're at your wit's end with neck pain, you're in the right place.

One of the best ways to instantly relieve neck pain is to apply targeted soothing heat to the area

About Neck Pain

While heat therapy is usually the most effective way to instantly relieve your neck pain and stiffness, there are some other effective methods that you can try beforehand. Here are our top tips for neck pain relief:

1. Try using an anti-inflammatory medication, such as paracetamol or ibuprofen to lessen the pain
2. Use a low, firm pillow while sleeping that fills the head-shoulder gap
3. Ensure your head is at the same height as the rest of your body when sleeping
4. Make a conscious effort to sit with better posture during the day (shoulders and neck back)
5. Avoid sleeping on your front, as this can cause awkward twisting of the neck
6. If all else fails, use a heat pad for instant relief

Best Electric Heat Pad for Neck Pain

Hot water bottles have dominated the world of soothing heat for years, but this old world method can be messy, clumsy, and won't hold its heat for long. Electric pads are the natural solution, as they can be tailored for each body part, and won't lose their heat until you turn them off.

Beurer Shoulder and Neck Heat Pad HK54

While we stock plenty of soothing and cosy neck warmers, it's hard to beat the consistent, long lasting heat that an electric heat pad can provide. The Beurer Shoulder and Neck Heat Pad HK54 is designed to comfortably fit around your neck, and is covered with a soft, cosy fleece lining for extra heat retention and comfort. With different heat settings that range from 50°C to 75°C, you can customise your relief to your needs and comfort, while a magnet closure ensure the pad is secure and easy to apply for soothing heat whenever you need it.

Key Features: Soft, breathable fleece lining with three heat settings

Moist Heat Therapy for Deep Muscle Relief

Standard heating pads can provide effective heat therapy to ailing muscles, but for the most soothing relief, moist heat is the best option. Moist heat therapy allows the heat from your pad to penetrate deep into your tissue, providing instant relief for your skin and muscles.

Cherry Stone Neck and Shoulder Hot and Cold Pack

When neck pain strikes, there's no better way to combat it than moist heat therapy. The Cherry Stone Neck and Shoulder Hot and Cold Pack is designed to provide a moist heat treatment exactly where you need it; targeting the hard-to-reach areas of your neck, upper back and shoulders for effective relief. Filled with cherry stones that retain their heat much longer than other heat pads, this warmer will release moist heat that penetrates your muscles, providing more warmth and relief than you've ever felt before.

Key Features: Provides targeted moist heat therapy for the neck and shoulders

Portable Electric Heat for Your Neck

While the electric neck heating pad above provides luxurious and effective heat, it won't be much good when you leave the house. With a portable heat pad, you can target your pain and stiffness at work, in the car, or wherever you may be.

Beurer HK57 Mobile Shoulder Heat Pad with Powerbank

You may have thought the day would never come, but we've finally found a way to provide targeted and soothing neck pain relief you can take anywhere. The Beurer HK57 Mobile Shoulder Heat Pad with Powerbank is slim and sleek with a built-in powerbank, allowing you to wear it wherever you go. Easily worn underneath clothing without appearing bulky, this is ideal when you don't have time to sit down and treat your neck pain at home. Providing up to two hours of soothing heat and equipped with a temperature monitoring function for added safety, this is the ultimate portable neck pain solution.

Key Features: Provides up to two hours of heat on the go, and is slim enough to discreetly fit under clothes
