Heated Belts

[SimplyDeeDee]

I’m currently suffering from a lot of pelvic and nerve pain and wondered if anyone had tried electric heated belts and what brand? I’m constantly filling my hot water bottle and have been doing this for years but I’d like something light and mobile with good heat.

I might be asking for a miracle given the heat admitted from a hot water bottle but thought I’d try my luck and ask.

I bought one from eBay, the brand is Medital and it's an electric heat pad that has velcro on each side so you can wrap it around any body part. I like it, it has 6 heat options, I whack it up full each time lol. I think I paid around £15 for it, it's not the most sophisticated looking thing but it does the job when I need it - it doesn't work miracles because obviously it doesn't give the targeted heat of a hot water bottle but especially on milder pain days I use it quite a lot.

Thanks Giraffe92 I’ll see if I can find this and have a look. I didn’t think there would be heat as good as a hot water bottle but as you say for milder days it might be the answer.

Google yu yu bottles, they stay hotter longer and wrap round your abdomen with ties. The fleece ones are about £35.00 x

Thanks I know about these ones but I’m after something less weighty, electric and portable if possible.
