Product Description:
Thermophore Automatic Moist Heat Pack Thermophore produces intense, moist heat for faster relief The application of moist heat is a commonly prescribed therapy in medical practice today, and the Thermophore Moist Heat Pack is the method physicians' recommend most often. Moist heat increases circulation and speeds recovery by bringing in fresh blood cells and taking away the wastes, which may hinder healing. These beneficial results continue for several hours after treatment. The application of moist heat, known as fomentation, is especially useful in treating back pain caused by muscle spasms from strain and tension. The Thermophore Moist Heat Pack and rest will gradually relax the muscle in spasm, restoring its normal length and relieving pain. The moisture produced by the Thermophore Moist Heat Pack transfers the high heat deeper into tissues than an ordinary dry heat pad. Arthritic and rheumatic pain is often temporarily relieved with the use of moist heat. The increased blood flow can relieve the inflamed joints and help maintain flexibility.

Rating: - Moist heat is the best and the Thermaphore delivers!
As a massage therapist, I am looking for ways to access the relaxation response as quickly as possible in order for clients to get more out of their time on the table. Moist heat penetrates and relaxes the body and this pack can be used every hour of every workday as an adjunct to massage. Whether just for relaxation or to assist in deep tissue therapies, this product makes the session go further. Now, clients ask for the pack immediately as they walk in.
Rating: - Nice, well made heating pad
I have used a couple of heating pads in the past and they either fall apart or don't get hot enough or feel very cheap. I have a friend who recommended this one and I took a flier and gave it a try.

It gets warmer, has a nice heavy feeling to it and I really like the way it draws the moisture out of the air (like magic!) and just feels "right" - I am now fighting my wife half the time to use it - will have ...

Rating: - Great Product
I bought a Thermophore about 10 years ago, and used it almost daily. It finally wore out, and if I get as much service from my second one, I will be satisfied. It is large, has a trigger for on and off control, and has a substantial washable cover.
Rating: - Help for that pain in the back
This is a nice size heat pack for anyone seeking relief from back pain using moist heat.
Rating: - This is not your average heating pad
This is our second Thermophore 14 x 27, first one lasted about ten years or so, and we liked it enough to replace right away.
With temperatures up around 165 degrees, this will get in deep to your muscles and joints. A few rounds of 20 minutes on and 20 minutes off will work wonders.
One of the best features is that this pad is weighted all over with many flat metal weights that make it conform to your body for great contact and heat transfer.
Use with caution ... Read More
