Yes. You can adjust the ice-packs to any position as needed or you can add more packs. I use this pack for ham string as well as knee. It has been the best cold pack I have purchased.

Yes, you can use it on any large muscles.....works best for pain or stiffness not so much for slimming!

not a medical expert, but it will contract your hamstring. Maybe on low power you may get relief but on full, it will probably be fairly painful.

I'm not sure. I bought it for my daughter after she injured her hamstring in cheer.

Not actually sure. Probably so but maybe not to the extent of other exercises. I bought it because it sit at a desk a lot. I can feel the tightness in my leg muscles after using it. Better than just sitting there. I bought one for my mother who is elderly and can not do a lot of exercise. For me, if I didn't sit at a desk I would probably just stick to my treadmill.

It will definitely be easier on the lower back, but from articles I've read and researched, it will not involve the hamstrings to as high of a degree. You could add other exercises to keep the hamstrings exercised thoroughly. Google "straight bar vs hex bar benefits" and you will find a slew of information.

yes, it does work. I have had it for about a year and it has worked fine for me. I take it with me when I do my exercises.

I have found that it does. However it may depend on the type of muscle injury you may have. I use it a lot for my arthritis and fibromyalgia pain. Over all I would recommend it for almost all types of muscle pain,

I use it mostly for my hamstrings. I find that if my hamstrings are loose than my back isnt so bad (I have a herniated L5) .. I do some stretches for my lower back with it but primarily use it for my legs

Yes, as far as I can tell, it would work on knees. I needed it for elbow, but do not see why it would not work for sore muscles around knee area. It is analgesic so don't expect a cure for arthritis, but some relief should be expected.

Not for me, it didn't. However, it might work for you. I have a TENS unit, much smaller than this amazon gadget, that does stop muscle spasms due to pain. I get it through my health insurance company, but I have seen them on EBay for about $60. Good luck.

I have no idea. I have only used it for me knees. Look on Kinesio's website for taping ideas or email them directly.

I used this product for muscle activity after a mini stroke and it got areas that regular exercise did not touch.if you buy this and it does not do what you want just return it.
