If your muscles are sore and tired LIKE THEY SHOULD BE, because you’ve been working out so hard … the Bed Buddy Hot/Cold Pack is bound to be your best friend. I know it’s called a “pack”, but it’s not really a pack. The word “pack” makes me think of a hard plastic square and this thing is more of a super soft and skinny long-shaped pillow full of love. You can choose to either throw it in the microwave or toss it in the freezer to bring on the cold or heat you’re desperate for.
I found great comfort and relief using the Bed Buddy as a source of heat. The moist heat was relaxing and took that “ouch” out of my neck, traps and hamstring. I also used it directly out of the freezer on a foot boo-boo, but did not find it as fabulous in it’s cold form. My main problem with it, was that it wouldn’t get cold enough. Wrapping it around your neck to cool down on a hot day would be wonderful, but I don’t think it packs the punch necessary for issues which truly need to be iced. To sum things up, I love the Bed Buddy for heat and for that benefit alone … I’d buy it!
