Product description


Where does the moisture come from?
Each Thermophore Heating Pad comes with a specially woven Moisture-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 vapors and increase the benefit of heat therapy.

Weighted to Provide Intense Moist Heat Therapy to the Targeted Area.
Thermophore heat packs are 2-3 times the weight of your standard heating pad. The weighted design ensures that the pad will mold to the body and stay in place during use. And by molding to the body, heat is transferred most effectively, delivering unsurpassed deep-heat therapy and relieving your pain

No heating pad gets hotter than the Thermophore pad – designed to provide intense penetrating moist heat for maximum comfort and pain relief, the thermostat controlled technology maximizes the heat to the highest levels considered safe by UL. Many popular heating pads today cannot work at these temperatures because they lack embedded thermostats in their design

Soothing & Healing ~ But Very Hot ~ Can Get Up To 160 Degrees
The pad is gently warm in one minute, and reaches maximum heat within 3 to 5 minutes.With the pad laying on top the body it gets very warm, the pause and/or off button turns off heat at any point.The instructions say to not lay on the pad. When I tried laying my leg on top the pad, the captured heat was intensely uncomfortable.Curious how hot?> 1. I laid a candy thermometer between pad & body = 123 degrees.> 2. Pad wrapped around thermometer = 140 degrees.(Customer service says it can get up to 160 degrees if trapping heat by laying on it)> 3. Pad wrapped around thermometer, with blanket on top = 162 degrees.The pads moist heat penetrates tissue and joints which is very effective in giving remarkable relief.I purchased this to help with a knee injury and experienced improved mobility and less aches and painstarting from the first time of use. (Two 20 minute sessions)I felt the treatments alleviated soreness and jump started a healing process,because the area was still dramatically more limber the next day.OVERVIEW OF PRODUCT ~> 1. The 100% cotton cover is specifically designed to absorb moisture from the atmosphere between usesand release the moisture during heat activation. The moisture is obviously present because skin or clothing becomes slightly damp.> 2. Auto Switch ~ Small red light stays continually on to show it’s plugged in properly ~ Aids finding switch in the dark.Switch has a bar of four blinking lights ~ one bar per 5 minutes. A light becomes solid with each 5 minutes used.Automatically turns off in 20 minutes. (Much nicer to use then Thermophore’s ‘Classic switch’ (in their red boxes)which must be continually held down to heat)There’s no control of heat settings, such as high – med – low. And no way to have it stay on continually.I phoned customer service to ask them why the product is designed this way, they said ~ safety reasons.Because it gets very warm/hot to provide good therapy, as hot as 160 degrees if covered or laid on top of,it can be harmful to a person ~ burns. And dangerous ~ electric shock and/or fire.> 3. Large pad (14″ x 27″) is weighted construction so it drapes better over the body. Pad with cover weights 2.12 lb.> 4. Latex free ~ On the box it says “contains no chemicals”. Instructions booklet under warnings says”This product contains chemicals which are known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm”.> 5. Made in U.S.A. Two year warranty from date of purchase, but if don’t have receipt, 3 year warranty from date of manufacturing.Costumer service says they don’t use reconditioned products, all replacements are new.A sticker on the end of the box contains the 3 digit model #, the middle 4 numbers are the manufacturing date.The first two # stand for which of 52 weeks of the year ~ the last two stand for the year. So 5113 = Dec 2013.This is an outstanding product in both high end quality and effectiveness.Suggested ~ effective uses for this moist heat, heating pad ~ arthritis pain ~ back pain ~ fibromyalgia ~ TMJ ~muscle spasms ~ chronic pain ~ and speeding the recovery of injury’s.I found this #155 at out local medical supply store for $102.95 plus tax.I was delighted to purchase it on Amazon for less ($63.88 & free S&H)

Hot!
I had to return two less expensive heating pads that simply did not get beyond lukewarm. This one is well made and gets hot . Great relief for my sore knee.

Great product
Very happy with it. It provides the heat I need. Most pads don’t get hot enough for me, but this one does.

Gets nice and hot
Excellent heating pad, and I think it’s the best one on the market today. We love it!

Almost…Perfect!
When I turn on my heating pad, I let out an audible sigh of contentment. The heat makes me feel so warm and relaxed. I need to put a double layer blanket over my legs because it get’s really HOT! When I say it is ALMOST perfect, I wish it had a thermostat so I could control the temperature. Instead, it quickly builds to hot and turns off in about 20 minutes. Then I have to click the on switch to start it up again.WHAT I LOVE:It’s BIG! It covers my legs & torso.It gets HOT – great when you’re feeling achy or just not feeling well.WHAT I DON’T LOVE:No low, medium, & high settings.It turns itself off after 20 minutes or so. I wish it would just stay ON.I really do love it though for it’s size and amount of heat thrown.

Floppy, too much heat, and noxious smell…
I really hoped to like this product more. It’s a nice large size, soft to the touch, and heats quickly. However I should have read the other reviews more carefully because there are several problems I’m having that have led me to purchase another heating pad after only having this one a couple weeks.1. It is heavy and floppy. It makes it so the pad wants to bunch and fold over, so when I placed it behind me it was difficult to get it to lie flat behind my back.2. It gets unbearably hot. This is one of those instances in which reading the reviews closer would have helped me make a better decision since this seems to be a common concern with other customers. The heating pad has three settings, but the medium and high might as well not even exist because anything above low is intolerable. I like to adjust my temperature but my option here is high, lava flow, and hellfire inferno.3. This is another feature that if I’d researched more I could have made a more informed decision. The shut off on this is less than a half hour. This drives me crazy! I turn it on and before I can even enjoy it it starts coming off. Once I realize that it’s no longer giving off heat I have to click it off and then back on again. I don’t mind an auto shut off, but 20 minutes is ridiculous in my opinion.4. Lastly is something I had hoped would dissipate but it is one of the biggest deciding factors in my purchasing a new heating pad. This would be the smell. Since taking it out of the packaging there has been a persistent chemical like smell which gets worse whenever it heats up. I thought that it might be just because it was new but after repeated use the smell has stayed just as potent. It’s repeatedly given me a headache and made using the product completely unpleasant.I wished that this had worked for me, especially considering the cost, but I’ve now purchased a large Veken heating pad and am really happy with it.

Muy bueno y súper útil. A mis pacientes les encantó.

Very good quality. Will heat up much better than existing thermal blankets. Make sure to get a power transformer from 110V to 220V if you’re outside of the US. Would strongly recommend!
Ms. P –
I am a hot pack pro.. Ive had several none last. Ive been in a car accident and the massage therapist recommended this brand. Insurance will reimburse fyi if you submit it. Gets me through treatments and overall moist heat is effective and really gets hot. The extra size is a must. Whole experience is perfect. Quick shut off protects from over heating!!
Tania –
This is the best heating pad I’ve ever owned, and I’ve owned plenty over the years dealing with chronic pain. Most don’t last as long either and are not near the same level of quality. This one is my second purchase as my first one broke after a couple of years. That is not bad considering it’s in almost daily use. The extra large size of it is also super helpful.
