Good, but not a panacea November 3, 2009
J. Gilbert (Indianapolis, Indiana)
It's not exactly how it looks in the picture. There are no "ears" that come up to the jaw and it's flatter. But does it work you ask? Well, I bought it for a hot pack and it does get plenty hot in the micro and it holds some heat for a half hour or so. And it's weighty so it lays flat against the back of your neck and spine. But the velcro closure in the front gets pretty hot so I don't close it unless it's cooled some. It's nice that you can wear it while you move around without it falling off. I think it's better than anything else I have. Haven't tried it as a cold pack because I already have some very good alternatives. I would recommend it. It's better than a neck buddy that smells like an old sock. There's no odor with this one!

elasto-Gel Cervical Collar October 22, 2009
P. Ziedrich (Northern California)
I agree with past reviews. The collar does not get quite hot enough and I assume not cold enough either (although I only heat it). After having my neck operated on (C2-C7) last Novemeber, I have suffered from muscle tightness at about shoulder level in my neck. I have gone through many microwavable gel packs from Wal-Mart likely imported from China. The gel in those are much more liquid and will get hotter and stay hotter longer. Unfortunately they blow out at the seams when heated and spill heated oil-gel all over its cover, your neck and any furniture. The last one purchased we immediately put it in a secondary "seal-a-meal" plastic bag prior to its first heating to hopefully extend its life... still leaked all over me, burning the skin on my neck and hands after its second heating.

This device is wonderfully fitted. The gel is not liquid so it stays evenly distributed in it's cover. It does give wonderful temporary relief and does allow a person to remain active or at least mobile. I find myself wearing it even when it cools down because it does keep the cold air off the back of my neck which is a primary cause for the muscles tightening. I cook it as recommended, about 40-45 seconds each side, but there is no way in the world that I would let it cool off for 60 seconds before applying to my neck as recommended. I think this product is fantastic and I look forward to purchasing some of their other products in the future.

Great cool relief October 19, 2009

I love the shape of the Elasto-Gel cervical collar and how it molds so nicely to the neck. It is completely flexible and provides nice relief.

I have used this item only as a cooler. I keep it in my freezer (in the baggie that comes with it) and use it when needed. The coolness only lasts for about 20 minutes but it is very soothing for inflammation of the neck (like a slipped disc which is what I have). This is not an ice pack, so it will not freeze the skin. It can also be used for heat--but I do not use it for that purpose and cannot speak about it.

As a neck cooler, I love it and am considering getting multiple collars that I can switch out. Very soothing and comforting also for MS (which I also have) during those times when I am overheating a bit. I just ordered the mask as well and have used this on my forehead for headaches. Extremely comfortable and easy to fit.

You won't know what you did with out it! October 10, 2009
Laurie Braun (Milwaukee, WI)
I had 2 surgeries on my spine. I used something similar to ease the pain in my neck when recovering. My brother was having the same symtoms of neck and back problems that I had before my surgery. I wanted to help, but I could not give up my product. So, I started to look around on the web for what I used. I came across the cervical collar by Elasto-Gel and the same product I was using. I sent both to him. The cervical collar by Elasto-Gel came before the other product. He was in sooo much pain he could not move. He said that this product was a lifesaver. He said that he doesn't know what he did with out it. He travels a lot so he can bring it along. He said that with out this product, he would be in the hospital right now. That is the same way I felt with my product. He uses it alllll the time and takes it with him where ever he goes.
I talked to my neurosurgeon, who I see on a monthly basis. I told him he should suggest to his patients to get these because I really think they are a godsend for people with neck problems.

Great Product September 17, 2009
SSL (Florida)
I have cervical stenosis and my physical therapist recommended an ice pack to provide pain relief for my neck. I found that trasditional ice packs were difficult to use and impossible to move around while using. This therapeutic cervical collar can be used hot or cold and is easy to use while relaxing or moving about.
