Features
Uses a conventional switch. Competitive products require you to make constant contact with their switch Lockout mode protects against accidental changing of the control settings Therapeutic treatment temperature between 88 degrees and 166 degrees Fahrenheit Automatic time control (1 - 60 min. timer) with auto shut off Digital hand control allows operator to program and monitor temperature and treatment time
The Theratherm Digital Moist Heating Pad, as opposed to dry forms of heat, draws moisture directly from the air. There is no water to add, no water to boil, no dripping packs and no towels to prepare. Moisture is drawn from the humidity in the air and retained in a specially designed 100% cotton cover. When the hot pack is turned on, the retained moisture is rapidly heated by high-grade ceramics, forcing the moisture out of the flannel cover onto the patient's skin, allowing deeper penetration of heat into the bodys tissue. The moisture acts only as a means to transmit heat more deeply into the tissue, so only a small amount is needed. TheraTherm, unlike all competitive products on the market, has a digital hand control allowing the operator to program the following parameters: treatment temperature, treatment time and on/off. Competitive units, including Thermophore, require the operator to make continual contact with a single-loaded switch to generate and maintain heat from the pad. This is positioned as a safety feature. TheraTherm has a conventional on/off control switch.
Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: The right choice Comment: Me and my wife were looking for a heating pad and this was the right one. Gives off good heat and is digitally adjustable. Nice safety features; automatic shutoff, does not automatically turn on when plugged in, velcro strap to help wrap around. Overall worth it. Customer Rating: Summary: good heat pad Comment: This is a very good heat pad. I bought it to help the inflammatory arthritis in my neck and shoulders. It definitely helps me loosen up in the morning and aids with pain relief. A couple notes: the pad covers the lower neck and shoulders. It does not give coverage to the upper neck near the base of the skull. This is evident in the product photo (and doesn't influence my rating of the product), but I thought it would be worth pointing out. Also, it not as heavy as I had hoped it would be. But it's still heavier than any other heat pad I've used, so I'm okay with it. I would buy it again if I lost it or broke it. Customer Rating: Summary: lasted 13 mounths Comment: stoped working after 13 months one month after warrenty. but did love it. and i did lay on it once, that is when it stoped working. the heat would not stay hot for 45min. but i am looking to buy new one because have not found one as nice as of yet. Customer Rating: Summary: Years Later, Still Going Strong Comment: It's been several years now, and the pad is still going strong. Before we were used to having to buy a new pad every year or so. That's no longer the case. Very durable.
Customer Rating: Summary: Best heating pad ever! Comment: I'll keep it short. I bought this for my wife and I use it occasionally as well. This is, without a doubt, the best heating pad either of us have ever used. Awesome product!
