Heat pads can be a fantastic way of relieving aches and pains as well as a really cost-effective method for keeping warm. Heat has been used for centuries as a natural remedy for pain. It’s very effective, medication-free, and inexpensive so it’s easy to see why it remains a popular option to this day.
Why you can apply heat in a variety of ways, heat pads have some great advantages over other methods as they can apply it in a comfortable, targeted way, offer consistent heat that can be varied to the user’s preference, and they’re very safe – even if you fall asleep while using them.
The new range of heating pads from Sweet Dreams offers something for aches and pains in most parts of the body. Here is an overview of the range:
Flat Heat Pads
Flat heat pads have great versatility as you can wrap them around different parts of the body or lie on them. They are a good option if you get flare-ups in different places as this can tackle them all.
The Sweet Dreams flat heat pads are available in two sizes: 30x40cm or 50x38cm. The larger one has 6 heat settings while the smaller one has 4. They both heat up very quickly, so pain relief is never far away. As well as soothing pain, using a heating pad can be a great part of a relaxation process but you don’t need to worry about falling asleep and leaving them on for hours as they will shut down automatically after 90 minutes and have to overheat protection.
With only a couple of pounds difference in price between the two, it’s a personal choice about which one is best for you. The larger one will obviously cover a larger area but the smaller one may be easier to wrap around small areas such as knees or arms and may be easier to travel with.

Heated cushions are not only for laying your head on, but you can also use them on most parts of your body. They can offer you pain relief and comfort for menstrual cramps or general stomach aches and, placed under your back, they can support its natural arch which will help with pain and posture. They can also offer an aid to sleep for those who find it hard to nod off when it’s cold.
The Sweet Dreams heated cushions come in two sizes: 40x30cm and an XL 60x40 size. Both have 4 heat settings and are extremely easy to operate. The soft, luxurious fleece fabric offers real comfort and the removable cover is machine washable so you can maintain high hygiene levels.
