How often to use hot pack (wheat bag)?!


Question: How often to use hot pack (wheat bag)?
How often is it safe to use a hot pack (wheat bag) for your neck?

I had a chiropractor tell me once it'd cause my muscles to atrophy, but my physio said it's ok to use frequently.

Answers:

As long as you are still using the muscles they won't atrophy. Yes it should be okay to use it once a day, if it helps. My Dr. says to use a heating pad and get someone to give me massages, and that is way better than using the medicine she prescribes me.
