Thermotech Medical Grade Heating Pad

Healing Effects

Moist heat packs increase circulation (thereby bringing in fresh blood cells and taking away wastes which may hinder healing) and speed recovery. The moisture produced by the Thermotech Hot Pack transfers the high heat deeper into tissue moreso than an ordinary dry heat pad.

Increased blood flow has been shown to aid in the relief of inflamed joints and helps maintain flexibility; it also relieves pain caused by muscle spasms. The combination of rest and the Thermotech Hot Pack will gradually relax the muscle spasm, restoring the muscle to its normal resting length and relieving the pain. The application of moist heat has been proven to be useful in relieving many types of pain including arthritis and rheumatic pain.

With a convenient hand-held momentary switch, the user can maintain the highest temperature needed. No water is needed. The Thermotech Hot Pack draws moisture from the humidity in the air and retains it in the hot pack's outer flannel cover. The flannel cover is washable and included at no extra charge. Because it delivers very intense moist heat, the Thermotech Hot Pack us more effective than other electric heating pads on the market.

The application of moist heat (called fomentation) is commonly prescribed by physical therapists and doctors. The Thermotech Medical Grade Digital Heating Pad is the choice of professionals when fomentation is most often recommended.
