Product Reviews of Elasto-gel Cervical Collar
Product Review: Cervical Collar for Shoulder Therapy
Summary: 5 Stars
My physical therapist suggested the collar as part of my rotator cup rehabilitation therapy. It fits nicely over the shoulder and is effective in reducing swelling after exercize. It includes a freezer storage bag that makes it convenient to have ready for use.Product Review: Cold but bulky
Summary: 3 Stars
What I like about the Shoulder wrap is that it allows me to move around while I'm wearing it. It is, however, a bit awkward geting it on and it is quite heavy. It does do the job once you get it on.Product Review: Disappointing
Summary: 1 Stars
This looked perfect for me, as it seemed like the gel, type I have had before - but it does not hold the heat or cold.
No help at all.
Product Review: Does not retain heat, poor fit.
Summary: 3 Stars
I was really looking forward to getting this item as I was dealing with a reoccurring problem with my neck that has plagued me since my early twenties. Unfortunately, this item didn't live up to expectations. I followed the directions for heating the collar in the microwave and secured it around my neck and that's when the problems began.
Firstly, I had a difficult time getting it to fit snugly around my neck. I have a 15 3/4" neck and I couldn't get it to fit tight enough and the Velcro wouldn't keep it into place once I had it secured. I had to hold it closed with my hand to keep it from coming apart.
Secondly, the collar doesn't get hot enough nor does it retain heat nearly long enough. I usually use a clay heating pad which I place on a rolled up towel and then lay down on the floor. The clay heating pad retains heat for more than fifteen minutes and works excellent. I was looking for something that I could use while sitting and moving around and thought this would be a great product but the heat retention and fitting just isn't there.
I'll probably pass this on to my brother as he has a bigger neck and maybe he'll have better luck with it as I can't see ever using this item again.
