Hi @peach,
Thanks for sharing this tip with others who may also benefit from it. I know heat can be beneficial when I am having a chronic pain flare-up. Have any of our community members found this beneficial or found another strategy that works best for them?Community Volunteer Adviser with professional knowledge of education, special educational needs and disabilities and EHCP's.

Would also warn against putting anything heated in a microwave onto your body as there can be patches of high heat that could cause harm
