My first bout with back problems started after our last move.
After packing, lifting and moving dozens upon dozens of boxes, it should have come as no surprise that my back went on a sudden and very painful “strike”. You know the feeling when it hurts to stand, move or sit and don’t even try to get up!
I did grab a few acetaminophen, and they worked somewhat for the 4 hours or so. I was still fairly uncomfortable though especially at night.
Since I did not want to pop pill after pill, my pharmacist recommended the Robax HeatWraps with ThermaCare.
I prefer heat to ice when dealing with a sore back and have tried self-heating ointments, but did not like the odour and greasy feeling they left behind.
After applying, the Robax Heat wraps almost immediately relaxed my muscles and took my pain away.
I was amazed, at how fast and great the pads worked on this tough backache.
The heat from these pads is comfortable and not burning, and the wraps were hidden beneath clothing.
The first couple days I wore them through the day.
My favourite time to wear the heat wraps was at night, though, because they would provide pain relief all night.
Getting out of bed seemed a lot easier, after wearing the wraps, as my back muscles felt less stiff and not painful.
The Robax HeatWraps even continued to provide pain relief for several hours after I removed them.
Since this time, I have used the Robax Heat wraps a few times and always an extra one in my medicine cabinet.

Robax Products That will soothe your aching Back
Capsules
Platinum uses ibuprofen to relieve pain and methocarbamol to relax tense muscles. This pain reliever is useful for back pain, muscle spasms, tense neck muscles, and strains and sprains.
Robaxisal Extra Strength provides relief for the same muscles, but this capsule uses acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and methocarbamol for relief. ASA is more potent than ibuprofen and works for stronger back pain.
Robaxacet uses acetaminophen and methocarbamol for muscle relief. Robaxacet Extra Strength uses the same formula as Robaxacet but the doses are increased.
Robaxim is a muscle relaxant whose primary ingredient is methocarbamol.
Heat-wraps
The Lower Back & Hips and Neck & Shoulder wraps are effective for relieving minor back and muscle aches by using controlled heat. The heat wraps are active for eight hours, but most feel up to 16 hours of relief.
