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.

Summary: Can't live without it!
Comment: I have a chronic back problem and after being out and doing errands I look so forward to coming home and lying on this wonderful heating pad! Went with my husband for a 5 day vacation and of course the heating pad came along! I've had it for quite a while now and it's still working great! If you suffer from any kind of arthritis or other painful disorders, this heating pad is for you! It really does work with the humidity in the air. Love it!

Summary: My wife and I love it
Comment: My wife and I have used this heating pad about 100 times in the past year. We usually leave it at the default setting, 30 minutes of pretty susbstantial heat. The size of the pad makes it great for laying over your shoulders while sitting up, or laying your neck/upper back on it (through a shirt) while laying back in bed.

It switches off automatically after 30 minutes, and cools down fairly quickly. One last note, we went on vacation for a week, and we accidentally left it plugged in (not activated, just plugged in). The temperature changing electronic box that routes the power was a little warm, but otherwise fine.

We liked this product so much we bought one for a friend with some mid-back pain, and they already told us that they love it.

Highly recommended for decent pain relief and relaxing heat therapy.

Summary: Great Pad
Comment: This is a wonderful and effective pad. I love that it heats up super fast and gets very hot. I personally like mine hot, but you can change the temperature to your liking. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is (1) it's pricey and (2) you aren't suppose to lay on it.

Summary: After a Long Day At Work
Comment: After a long day at work this is perfect. Keeps my neck and shoulders functioning for another day. The timer is excellent can set for the desired length to operate then turns off automatically. Also the temperature is adjustable by degree not by Low, Medium and High, so can be adjusted to your comfort. Excellent product.

Summary: Does The Job
Comment: This product was reviewed in Kevin Kelly's Cool Tools [...] and received high marks. I'm using it on a "frozen' shoulder that I've had an bought the unit to help me. It works wonderfully, coming to heat an maintaining the heat rather accurately. It has a good temperature and timing control. Furthermore it will monitor the present temperature and elapsed time. Both time and temperature are adjustable with a control that has LCD viewer. All in all it's good and better than the units offered at Wal-Mart.
