Electric Heating Pad For Back Pain | Remote Control & Multiple Settings

Lower back pain is a common problem, with one in six Australians reporting back problems, and around four out of five having back pain at some stage. People experience lower back issues in different ways, but most feel pain, soreness and stiffness. Back pain can impact us physically and mentally, and profoundly affect how we go about our day-to-day lives.

The warmth from our electric heating pad for back pain can relax tense muscles, decrease muscle spasms, increase range of motion, and relieve pain. But it also has a wide range of other applications, including offering pain relief to your neck, back, legs and shoulders, and warming other areas of your body, including your feet. Reusable, washable, and with multiple remote-controlled settings, it will be your new warmth-offering best friend!

The benefits of heat pads for back pain

Heat therapy isn’t anything new. In fact, its history dates back to the ancient Greeks and Egyptians, who used the sun’s rays as therapy. In the past, hot springs were also used in China and Japan for pain relief. Today, you don’t have to head outdoors for relief. Heating pads have made it even easier and more convenient to use heat therapy, particularly if you are using a heating pad for a sore back.

✅ Helps improves blood flow to the area where the heat is applied, reducing muscle pain and stiffness.

✅ Provides soothing heat to sore muscles, treating soft tissue injuries and prompting faster healing.

✅ Application is painless, and the therapeutic effects of heat will soothe discomfort.

✅ Can help with joint pain, repairing damaged muscles and reducing inflammation.

✅ Are convenient, portable and electric, so that you can use them anywhere in your home, from your bed to the couch.

✅ A warm bath is ideal for treating back pain, but maintaining the water temperature can be difficult. Heat pads for back ache have adjustable levels and provide a continuous heat flow while they are turned on.

FAQs | Heating pad for back pain

1. What causes back pain?

Your spine (or backbone) is a complex structure. It is made up of 24 small bones (called vertebrae) that are stacked on top of each other. Discs sit between each vertebra to give your spine flexibility and to act as ‘cushions’, similar to shock absorbers. The vertebrae are joined together by small joints called ‘facet’ joints. These joints, and a mesh of muscles and ligaments provide structural support and allow you to move and bend your back. Lower back pain can come from any of these structures, but in most cases, it isn’t caused by any significant damage to your spine. It usually stems from the surrounding joints, ligaments or muscles, and occasionally spinal disc problems.
2. What are the signs and symptoms of back pain?

Back pain may be experienced anywhere along the spine – from the neck to the buttocks. In some cases, pain may also be felt in one or both legs. A common ailment with these types of symptoms is sciatica.If you have back pain, you may be restricted in your daily activities, such as lifting, bending, sitting and walking. Movement of your torso may be limited by back pain. There may also be tenderness when pressure is applied to the joints of the spine. Reduction of strength, reflexes, and sensation in your legs can be a sign of nerve compression. It is common for people with back pain to feel distressed about their recovery. People with persistent back pain can develop a fear of activity and movement and activity (including work) and worry that it will make things worse or increase their pain. Living with persistent back pain may also lead to mental health issues, such as irritability, anxiety, frustration and even depression.
3. How can a heating pad for back pain help?

A heating pad for back pain can help improve circulation, reduce muscle pain and stiffness, soothe sore muscles, treat soft tissue injuries, prompt faster healing, help with joint pain, repair damaged muscles, and reduce inflammation.
4. When should I see my doctor about my back pain?

You should see your doctor or other health care professional for further advice if your back pain doesn’t improve after a few weeks or gets worse, you have symptoms like weight loss, tingling or numbness in the legs, or problems with bladder and/or bowel control. You should see a doctor as soon as possible if you have osteoporosis, a history of cancer, or are prone to infection.

Excellent, highly recommend

Celine

Absolutely love this heating pad. Heats up super fast. Been using it ever since I received it. Fantastic for my sore back muscles from working very long hours

REEMA M.

Still in my second month of use and so far so good. I have tried a fair few electric heat pads and highly recommend this one.

Alexis T.

I bought the product for my mum because she's going through Chemo and has bad stomach aches and pains and she absolutely loves it. It's like having a portable electric blanket, I was going to get one that fits the body part you put the heat pad on but having a heat blanket that can go anywhere on your body is so much better.

Yvonne B.

I really love my Pain Relief Heating Pad. It heats very quickly with a variety of heat settings to choose from. There is a timer but I haven't used this yet. The fabric is of very high quality with very neat bindings. I would highly recommend this product.

Helena M.

Perfect electric heating pad! My daughter loves it!

Kerry T.

Now an indispensable part of my 'at home' self care. My knee thanks you profusely and I am most appreciative and thankful for the relief this heat pad provides.

Tamara F.

Super easy to use, soft & comfortable, even for a restless sleeper like me. Heats up quickly & the cord length is long enough to extend from the wall point. I have since bought 3 more, for my parents who suffer chronic back pain and my daughter who suffers from period pain. We love the versatility it offers.

Radomir S.

Great product .. great helper for low back pain .

Lawrence B.

The heat pad has been a lifesaver for my wife. She has injured he back ant the heart pack has helped reduce the pain and allowed he to sit and sleep comfortably.

Rosslyn G.

I love my electric heating pad, as I experience terrible knee pain and the constant heat really relieves the pain. The different settings are great so I can choose the heat I desire. The heat pad is very well made, as well.

Dorothy K.

Great for my sore back

David W.

“Forget heat bags” they run ➡️ cold. This gave me temporary back relief , as long as I had it on “plus a little more”. The bonus is the time settings & heating settings (heating is marvellous ). You can’t get this from a heat bag.

Gail M.

Absolute life saver! Been struggling with post embolisation procedure ..engorged veins wrapped around ovaries. Tummy pains for 1 month so far ..2 to go! Heat is amazing ..allows me to finally get decent sleep and heaven during day! With there was a portable option ..aka battery one so I could leave home. Many thanks! ❤️❤️

Brenda C.

This product has helped me immensely with my bad hip. it is very comfortable and is great to have many heat settings to choose from. Love this product. THANKYOU

Elizabeth C.

My 89 year old mother has lots of degeneration in her spine and finds applying heat is the most comforting thing she can do. This gift has "changed her life" as she no longer has to get up to rewarm wheat bags and hot water bottles in the middle of the night - she only has to hit a button and it's set to switch itself off. Perfect.

Samantha

Amazing product and quality

Patrick S.

Works for me!!!

Joan S.

Soft, good quality, heats quickly. brings much relief to sore stiff muscles, chest issues and tummy aches

Lana E.

The heating pad has been amazing, the simple fact it can be adjusted to the temperature I like (which is pretty darn hot) and stay that way is great. I used to use heat packs alot which are great for about 5 minutes then loose their heat. This gives me endless hours of continuous heat which helps my psoratic arthritis alot

Tara W.

Amazing! Goes very hot if needed for bad pain. Can’t recommend it enough

Jenna

Really disappointed. The cable is so short I have to sit right next to a power point. The size is too small to cover my abdominal area and I’m slim.

Anni F.

There is nothing like the dread you feel, when a newly purchased item does not live up to expectations. As I started the complaints proceedure I was super surprised, when I the same day or the next I received an email telling me exactly what to do. It was so easy and helpful I could hardly believe it. Jumping for joy, that was me. I now enjoy a replacement Electric Heating Pad. Thankyou Pain Relief Australia My next order has been placed

Olivia

Very happy with this product. It is quick to heat up, comfortable and very soft. Really helps my lower back pain. 100% recommend this.

Skyler

I literally fight over the pad with my cat !! My cat loves it for her arthritis and will rest her elbows onto it, and I use it for cramps and aches ! My only complaint is the timer on it is not long enough I wish I could have it on all day for my cat cus she gets upset when it turns off after two hours

Janelle Y.

Love my heat mat. use it every night when i go to bed to settle back and neck pain.

Vivienne H.

Lesley A.

Wonderful. Give it a go!

I find this heat pad very convenient, no fuss, easy to use. It times out and switches itself off which is a great safety thing. I would recommend 'Pain Relief Australia' for their products. Thank you Kris

Kim C.

Good product is very helpful at easing my back pain I use it every day

Magdelena

Amazing! This has made a huge difference to my back pain

JOANNA G.

My daughters use heat packs a lot and love that they do not need to get up and reheat. Nice soft material and good size.

Sabrina C.

I have chronic back and sciatic pain. For years I have essentially lived with a heat pack to help manage my pain. The heat packs were effective, but the biggest issue was how long the heat lasted. I was skeptical getting a heat mat, my concern was the mat wouldn't get hot enough, as I would have my heat packs almost to the point of burning for the most relief (and the longest time before having to reheat). The mat gets sufficiently hot for me at the highest setting, it's not scolding but because of the consistency of the heat, it is very effective, and I was pleasantly surprised. I haven't really used the lower settings but if you like your heatpack scolding, it'll likely for you and there are 5 lower settings if you don't. There are time settings (30, 60, 90, 120 mins), I will say I don't think the 2 hours is accurate, it seems to shut off before the 2-hour mark, but 1 hour is definitely accurate (I haven't used the used the other two settings). There are no annoying noises to indicate it has turned off, I just notice it is not as hot anymore. The main reason I didn't give it full stars is because I'd like it to have a little more weight to it. It is great when you are lying on it or you have it between your back and a chair but if I want to have it sitting on my leg or shoulders, it doesn't feel as hot. In my opinion, as someone with chronic pain, it is worth the money, and I honestly should have bought one sooner.

Teagan

Great works perfectly, can’t live without! Everyone should have one!

Juliette L.

This is one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. Full stop. It quickly heats up, is flexible and easy to wrap around your back or knee. The soft cover is pleasant on the skin. I’m so delighted that I don’t have to be up and down heating heat packs anymore. This product gives strong heat where it’s needed. Highly recommend.

Geoff H.

We ordered this item as we both have the odd pain and use hot water bottles which only last a short time. This blanket is excellent and we use it regularly.

Jessica Pax L.

I use this on my baby’s nappy change table - it’s been a lifesaver for us all through the cold nights! Love that it is washable too. Thankyou

Richard S.

The heat pad description was accurate and was posted quickly.

Rachael H.

Addicted. I spent an inordinate amount of time on this heat pad. I had a couple of herniated discs and an annular tear. The relief that this bad boy brings…. Chefs kiss. It’s amazing after a rehab / physiotherapy session. I lay on it. I sit on it. And double use, for monthly period pain - absolute gold. Highly recommend.

Cassie R.

The product is perfect for my mother in law who is going through bone and breast cancer. Her back is always hurting so this heat really helps her sleep. A great product.

Raelene

This Little electric blanket is fantastic to use on your back as I have lower back issues and would highly recommend this ! Customer service is A1 as I had an issue with not receiving my blanket after 1 month so I rang them up and found out it was held at AUS post. I was reissued my order and within a week I had my Electric Heating Blanket. Thank you very much as I will be recommending this to family and friends.

Graham C.

I purchased the heat pad as I have a displaced sacral joint. The relief o get from the heat pad in my chair & bed is amazing especially as it has so many heat settings (haven’t had to go above 3) & knowing the timer works allows me to sleep more soundly as I don’t have to wake to turn it off. I love it !!

Lenard C.

It’s a very good heating pad

Angela B.

This is a fantastic product, use it for my sore neck and sore hip.

Mia T.

I love that is soothes my muscles, different heating settings and soft material.

Melanie M.

I have spinal disc degenerative disease. I was burning my back with heat packs as I am in chronic pain, so I went looking for an alternative pain relief. All I can say is thank you. It is incredible and has really helped with my pain. I also use the heating pad by placing it on my pillow at night to help with my headaches and my neck. I am so happy with this product that I will be ordering another one very soon Anyone with serious pain please buy this product. Again , thank you. Mell

Tracy M.

It works well, heating perfectly and easy to use. I highly recommend this product.

K8m P.

Very useful for back pain ..actually any area that troubles you

Adrian M.

This Heat pad is amazing! No more running to the microwave every 30-40mins to re-heat. It heats up plenty for me and I only use the half way setting

Sandra M.

My electric therapy heating pad is wonderful. I have been using wheat bags for years but this is so much better and more comfortable to use in bed. I also love the timer option. My only wish is that there was a 12 volt plug attachment to enable the heating pad to be used in a car.

MICHELLE B.

Love this heating pad so much I just bought a second one for my husband I have chronic pain, fibromyalgia and long covid. It helps a lot with the pain of my back and chest.

Trish B.

I bought my heat pad to rehab and warm up muscles before stretching .. perfect to mould around body parts and especially sacroiliac issues

Sharon P.

This is the best money spent. So easy and comfortable to use and the heat helps with relieving pain. Love it, love it, love it!!

Nadia R.

Purchased for use after laparoscopic hysterectomy. The heating pad has helped ease pain tremendously, I have used it every day from day 4 post op. I recommend to wait until bloating eases to use as I found it tender but from day 4 post op it has been fantastic.

Helen P.

It is fantastic! I would have liked an option to be able to plug it into the socket in the car as well! I have severe arthritis in my neck and upper back and the heat pad is just perfect for relieving pain.

Alex M.

The pass two years I’ve been in the depth of chemotherapy, radiation and immunotherapy . Whilst there are many many side affects, this heat pack has been an absolute godsend for the aches and pains of treatment. My partner is happy tooas he’s not having to constantly (very kindly!) heat up my wheat pack every hour! It makes it so much easier in the night and provides so much comfort. I’m often up in the night 4 to 5 times to the (cold) bathroom and it’s a great comfort jumping back into bed and warming up quickly! Thank you so much for this product! It’s the best thing I’ve purchased during my cancer journey. I think I might get another one so I can double up achy arms and neck and achy legs. Thank you so much for this amazing product, Alex

Donna P.

Love it helps with my back pain

Bente V.

It is easy and fast to use..so cuddly and cosy. I love it!

Elaine V.

Jane T.

This is great - over the back of an armchair it soothes my tired back!

Sandra M.

It’s brilliant .. I love it use it every morning really helps !!!

Tamara M.

I suffer chronic pain fibromyalgia and many muscle myopathies. So I live with chronic pain 24/7 I also suggest PCOS and endometriosis and andometriosis also since my tubal ligation I have even more pain. I've always used heat packs but your forever heating them up and they start to smell and wear out. So this is my new heat pack. Love it to bits especially when bed ridden. Will help with my up coming hysterectomy also. I have a full blanket version that I use in winter on the couch. So great it's safe as turns off after time runs out and you can adjust heat levels completely safe to go to bed with. It's a must have to any household.

Rowen H.

It has a wide range of settings. I use it almost every day for my back and shoulders.

Rinske C.

It works a treat!

Megan M.

Love this! I suffer from Rheumatoid arthritis and Fibromyalgia so this is an essential in my house! Have now bought for others as a gift too and they love it too because it is so light weight compared to wheat etc heat packs.. and that is what makes it so great!

Kerry P.

Excellent product - very happy with the quality and service.

Donna P.

Every home should have one. Highly recommend it. Gave me the ability to move without pain

Linda G.

Bought it for my mum , for aching back . She loves it

Judith G.

It is very good it helps to relieve the pain in my legs and knees I use the pad often

Micaela H.

I love this 'heat pack' and I can only suggest one improvement if its possible to do. Make it a weighted 'heat pack' so that you can get the full effects when lying on your side.

David I.

It is a great product, but the remote is difficult to operate if it is used with cold toes when in bed.

Madison C.

The perfect thing for my elderly father-in-law that has aches and pains. So much better than any heavy heat pack which he’d struggled with in the past. He found it so so simple to operate as well, he absolutely LOVES it!!

Leila S.

Super quick and easy to use

Lisa H.

Really great product. Soft, large and lightweight. Would highly recommend. Delivery is very slow though.

I bought this for my friend who has acute back, abdominal and kidney pain and he’s said it has been a God send. It brings confirm and relief and is so easy to use and convenient. No more hot water bottles to fill or wheat bags to heat up. Highly recommend this product.

Tanja S.

I travel for work and this is convenient enough to take with me on overnight trips. It's also great in the morning when I wake up in a lot of pain. Worth every cent!

Helen H.

I got it for my husband and he uses it every day, he said it’s good on his back.
