Heat therapy is often overlooked in the desperate search for pain relief. Still, research proves this simple, natural method can alleviate pain better than many more complex, invasive strategies.
Heat therapy enhances your body’s healing power by stimulating circulation to remove toxins and increase the supply of rich, oxygenated nutrients available to damaged tissues.
Comforting heat works to soothe painful joints, reduce inflammation, relax knotted muscles, and calm pain receptors.
Utilizing Deep-Heat therapy at the first sign of a problem can often help avoid the development of a chronic pain cycle.
How hot does the Thermophore heating pad get?
No heating pad gets hotter than the Thermophore pad, with a max temperature of up to 180°F. Recommended application time: 15 – 20 minutes at a time.
Can I use Thermophere over my clothing?
We recommend using the Thermophore directly on the skin, if possible so that the moist heat can penetrate most effectively and deeply into the tissue. Using it over pajamas or a shirt will also work if that is more convenient for you.
Why is Thermophore Pad so much heavier than ordinary heating pads?
To relieve aches and pains, it is necessary for the heat to transfer deeply into body tissues effectively. To make the Thermophore pack more efficient, we have positioned weights to cause the Thermophore® pack to conform to body contours. This reduces air spaces between the Thermophore hot pack and body, so more heat is transmitted to the body tissues. Ordinary stiff plastic heating pads leave air pockets, which result in an uneven transfer of heat.
Where does the moisture come from?
Each Thermophore unit has a specially-woven Moist-Sure fleece cover. Between uses, this cover traps moisture from the atmosphere in the air spaces between the textile strands. Although the fabric does not feel wet, the application of quick, intense heat will generate this moisture into water vapor to increase the benefit of heat therapy.
