The Thermophore Automatic Moist Heat Pack is an electric heating pad that produces intense, moist heat for faster relief; more effective than other electric heating pads. The Thermophore Pack delivers consistent moist heat, which is applied and controlled by the patient for maximum comfort and effectiveness.
The Thermophore produces its own moisture automatically by drawing moisture from humidity in the air and retaining it in the packs outer flannel cover. The rapid heat rise occurs when the hot pack is turned on forces the moisture out of the flannel onto the patients skin, speeding temporary relief to the treated area.
The application of moist heat-fomentation-is a commonly prescribed therapy in medical practice today, and the Thermophore is the method physicians recommend most often. Moist heat increases circulation and speeds recovery by bringing in fresh blood cells and taking away the wastes which may hinder healing. These beneficial results continue for several hours after treatment.
Moist heat is especially useful in treating back pain caused by muscle spasms from strain and tension. The Thermophore Hot Pack and rest, will gradually relax the muscle spasm, restoring its normal length and relieving pain. The moisture produced by the Thermophore Hot Pack transfers the high heat deeper into tissues than an ordinary dry pad.
Thermophore Hot Packs should be used at the first sign of muscle spasm or joint pain. A Thermophore Hot Pack treatment is especially useful to help temporarily relieve pain caused by muscle spasm or inflammation after a day of recreation, gardening, jogging or household chores.
Thermophore Automatic Moist Heat Pack produces the most intense, deep penetrating heat for your sore muscles and joints.
