The Original Magic Bag Extended Compress, Hot/Cold Therapy for Stomach Pain Relief, Cordless Hot Cold Compress, 46 x 13.5 cm (18.1" X 5.3'')

Sore hip

I have been using Magic Bags for over 30 years. Most have lasted 10 or more years with frequent use in the microwave. They are great as they never get cold overnight. Body temp, sure, but not cold like a water bottle. I just replaced an older bag and the new bag leaked grain. We were able to sew it up, but if you made replacement covers that could go in the microwave, I could wash the cover and leaks would be contained.

I play a lot of sports and use this for muscle aches and menstrual issues. This bag works really well for heat, but doesn't retain cold as well. (For cold, I recommend frozen peas :P). This is the second bag I have bought for a friend. I still have my original from 10+ years ago. :) Highly recommended.

Being from Québec I was an instant fan & stayed a loyal one for as long as the two I purchased lasted - which was over 10 years! Yes, 10 years.Since moving to the United States I tried many imitation but none were as good as "le sac magic" so, I was thrilled to find them on Amazon.Cold or hot, headache, hot-flash, or muscle strain, this bag truly is magic with the relief it brings.

Bought to replace an old one where the cover wore and bits started coming out. New one works as well as the old one. Bag is about 12 inches long by 3.5 inches diameter. Not overfilled so can be wrapped around body where needed. I have not used it to cool so cannot comment.

Aside from the fact that it’s a simple and excellent hot or cold compress (whichever you need for the occasion), the sac magique offers one thing that puts it above all others: because the filling is some kind of grain, it has the subtle and very pleasing smell of slightly toasty fresh bread when hot. Magnificent

good

Sac Magique is the name in Quebec. My wife brought two of these down from Quebec when she moved here. She swears by these things for folks that need heat someplace on their body. They are filled with grain and heat up quickly in the microware. They really work for those that require long lasting heat (many many hours). Hers were probably 20 years old and were certainly worn out, as they sometims leaked burned grain out of the worn areas. I found these by searching for the French name and finally purchased a few for her Christmas. They are really neat devices and recommended.
