So several people here recommend wheat packs.

I cannot use one because I do not have (and do not want) a microwave oven, and my standard oven is gas.

Many years ago I did have a gel filled neck pack which required heating in a microwave - it did work (to lesser extent) for pain relief, than the Soothanol X2 I use now, but it exploded in the microwave ..... a slimy blue mess.

I got rid of my microwave 10 years ago.
