Average Customer Ratings:

Thermophore Moist Heat Pack Units are one of the most popular sources of therapeutic heat in the home. Recommended for Arthritis or Rheumatism, TMJ, Chronic back or neck pain, Fibromyalgia, Muscle spasms, Sports injuries (after the acute phase), Strained muscles or ligament. The Thermophore Moist Heat Pack, designed and manufactured in the US, is usually compared to the standard heating pad sold in the pharmacy for $20.00 or less. Most patients, and even some medical professionals, are not aware that the Thermophore Pack reaches a much higher temperature and automatically produces moist heat without adding water. The Thermophore Pack is actually considered a medical device. The Thermophore Pack delivers consistent moist heat, which is applied and controlled by the patient for maximum comfort and effectiveness. Microwave products and boiled products do not deliver a consistent, controlled temperature, and may he dangerous to the patient.

FEATURES:

• The Manual "on" switch makes the Thermophore Hot Pack safe. The switch allows you complete control of the temperature. It has a feather-light touch for those with arthritic hands, and should you fall asleep, your grip on the switch relaxes and the heat automatically turns off. Also available with an automatic switch (Thermophore Arthritis Pad)
• Because of large size, the Standard Size Thermophore can be applied to larger areas of the body, like the entire back, and over both legs or shoulders. Fleece blend cover included! Our best selling size
• Moist heat treatments are more effective than dry heat treatments. This is because moisture transmits heat better than air. The outer fleece blend cover of the Thermophore Hot Pack draws humidity from the air and retains it. Once the heat is turned on, the moisture is forced out of the fleece blend and onto the treated area.
• There is no water to boil, no sponge. No scalded fingers, no towels and no need to rely on others to help administer treatments
• Moist heat stimulates tissue activity with deep, penetrating heat and temporary pain relief results in a matter of minutes

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

our third generation of thermaphores -
thermaphores have been in our family since first invented back at the Battle Creek Sanitarium.to have one for sciatica,musclo-skeletal issues,etc. is a blessing! sadly they do wear out.like after ten or so years.lol. just purchased a new one from a great seller and i paid less this time then i did ten years ago.DANG!thanks amazon!

Thermophore -The only excellent heating pad -
This is the only heating pad I have found that gets hot enought to really help if you have chronic muscle pain. I have one that I have been using for years. Inside the pad the heating wire is looped around pieces of lead and it has 3 fusible links that will melt if it overheats. That never happened but over the years the connections at these broke on my old pad - easy enough to fix if you dont mind a little soldering and sewing. I have fixed my old pad a couple of times and am still using it but just bought a new one since my daughter has started using the old one. For me this pad is better than anything and I have used them all.

Really reduces muscle pain! -
This is the best moist heating pad ever, and the second one I've purchased. The first one lasted over 20 years, and I literally wore it out. I chose the pad with the manual safety switch, as I had before. You have to be really careful that you don't get it too hot, or you could get a burn or blister, so the pad would not be good for a person with poor circulation or diabetes, otherwise, it is fantastic. Wonderful for muscle muscle pain. Thank you

Heats fast -
Caution this can get hot if held for more than about 3 minutes. Works perfect for me. I like it.

Good basic heating pad -
This is the second pad I've owned in 20 years. Thermaphore pads just go forever. This is basic model; you press the trigger and it gets hot. It's comfortable and the manual safety switch prevents the pad from heating if you fall asleep. Not much in the way of heating controls, and no organic/microwave features. If you want those, this is not the right pad for you. My wife has back problems and this is the only pad she likes.
