- UTK Far Infrared Heating Pad for Back, 5X Pain Relief for Waist, Abdomen, Thigh, Hip, Hot to 159℉, FSA-HSA Eligible, Natural Jade & Tourmaline, Auto Shut Off, 21" x 31'' Large Size, Gift for Women Men

Words just cannot explain how healing this type of therapy is!! I started with the lower back wrap for my husband and ended up using it for my own upper/ mid back pain but because of its size I had to keep moving it around so I bought the large pad for myself and my back pain just dissappears. I literally sit on it every night when I settle into my favorite chair. I find it helps with chest colds and coughs...Ive used it for knee pain...pain just disappears when I use it for a few hours. Its truly amazing and I can't believe that I never heard of this type of therapy. Every doctors office should promote their use! The stones are IMPORTANT. I tried another brand that had a style I liked but it lacked the stones and it was no different that your general heating pad that can be purchased at a pharmacy....that one went back to the seller. The large flat pad is great for laying on, wrapping around knees (although if I had a chronic knee problem I would definitely purchase the one designed for the knee). While they are somewhat flexible they aren't super flexible because of the nature of the product and the stones. Hence I purchased the one designed specifically for the neck because I feel it helps beat colds and flu bugs that start in the throat and glands. I wish there was one designed to cover the neck, shoulder and entire upper and mid back and chest! The heat from this is DEEP and soothing. Shoot, I turn it on even when I don't have any pain just because it is so freakishly comforting! When I have a cold I take it to bed with me and either lay on top of it or place it on my chest for a cough. I swear I get better significantly faster and my cough is totally diminished! My honest opinion is that these pads are miraculously healing for everything that ails! I use the large one every single day and sometimes more than once a day...just when ever I sit down it goes on. They are very well designed and made with very high quality materials. These pads are STURDY!

This pad is amazing. I have had a couple of Therasage jade heating pads for over 6 years, and they were starting to wear out, so I decided to replace the medium size with this UTK pad with tourmaline. This pad is larger than the medium Therasage, and has the added benefit of the tourmaline stones. This pad heats quickly, the heat is evenly distributed throughout, and it seems to be gentler in the source of heat but also seems to penetrate more deeply/thoroughly than the Therasage pad does. I really like the control dial, and that I can choose the exact temperature and amount of time; it is very easy to use, even in the dark in the middle of the night. My husband uses this for chronic neck and back pain at higher temperature settings, and experiences temporary reduction in symptoms. I am using this pad to boost my immune function with long sessions of 4-6 hours overnight at a lower heat setting. After just about 3 weeks (usage 4-6 nights a week), I am already seeing positive results. My asthmatic kitty is also doing treatments (by choice, she is drawn to the pad anytime we turn it on, and she will take any opportunity to steal a spot on it if we get up for a bathroom or water break). In the three weeks since we received the pad, I have noted an improvement in the kitty's asthma attacks; additionally her weight has reduced and she seems healthier than in the entire past year. Overall, this is a wonderful pad for the price, and I feel comparable or even superior to the Therasage pad of the similar size.

Works wonders on back pain! The customer service is also very responsive and when the pad stopped working about a year after it was ordered, they diagnosed the issue and replaced the part without any issues. Highly recommend this product!

It is well constructed. The heating pad is wonderful for easing the pains in stiff muscles, but I can't testify to it's healing properties. Due to the stones, it is heavy.

If you want a heating pad that goes beyond surface warmth and actually helps penetrate and loosen tight muscles and relieve pain, the UTK infrared pad family is one of the best options. This medium-sized pad will fully cover your back (or abdomen), and it's flexible enough that it can be wrapped over a pillow for neck/upper back relief, or wrapped around a leg or arm. The attached controller lets you manage temperature and timer settings with precision. See my video review for more information. I also wanted to mention that they have excellent and responsive customer service. I had an issue with a previous item and they quickly dealt with it.

This UTK far infrared heating pad has been fantastic for managing my lower back pain. The jade and tourmaline stones heat up evenly and provide deep, penetrating warmth that really helps relax tight muscles. I appreciate the 5 heat settings which let me adjust the temperature based on my comfort level and needs. The size is perfect for covering my entire lower back area. The auto shut-off feature gives me peace of mind if I fall asleep while using it. The pad heats up quickly and maintains consistent temperature throughout the session. The fabric covering is soft and comfortable against the skin. I use this after long days of physical work and it significantly reduces my muscle tension and discomfort. The far infrared technology seems to penetrate deeper than regular heating pads I've used before. The flexible design lets me use it on my back, abdomen, or other areas. It's well-constructed and has held up great with regular use. Great investment for pain management.
