Vibrating Far Infrared Heating Pad for Back Pain Relief, Hot to 159℉, Lower Back Massager Gift for Women Men, FSA-HSA Eligible, 3 Vibration, 16 Timers Auto-Off, 20 Jades, 35-55" Adjustable Size

This was an expensive purchase and I thought i was out of my mind for doing it. Ive now purchased three of these for friends and family. The heat is adjustable, it will get so hot it hurts if you want it to. Like scary hot. Its the type of device made for adults before all these stupid warning labels that read warning fire maybe hot and cause burns. This belts heat setting is amazing. I hope they never change it. On its highest setting which I've never used you might be able to cook eggs with it. It will take around five minutes or less to get to temperature. Once it does it maintains it really well. I am a big guy. The largest size fits. The vibration setting is helpful. I honestly find it annoying because I wish it would stay on vibrating full time but there is no setting for that. It vibrates for say 3 seconds and then its off for 1 or 2. Then back on. There are 3 of these settings, setting one my guess is 1 second on 1 second off. The vibration is strong enough that you can feel it. I wouldn't think it would help with the pain but it does. The heat is best but the vibration just helps loosen it all up. If I had to come up with a complaint it would be that some days I wish the belt had twice or even three times the coverage because my back is so bad in many places I find myself using this on my lower back, then I have to move this to my middle back and then move it again to my upper back. Im quite tall. This item helps alot getting rid of my back pain. I use it several times a week. And sometimes several times a day. Its worth every penny.

I've purchased two of these UTK Heating Pad with Vibration Massage for Lower Back for loved ones that suffer from arthritis. That's how good these are. One has psoriatic arthritis, and the other is older and has arthritis and spine degeneration. I'm saying this so you can compare your issues with my purchase use and subsequent feedback and decide how it applies to you and your situation, which is what I did. This isn't my first UTK product, because the Infrared Heat is a game changer since it gets the heat deeper into the pain points. Yes these products are a bit expensive but not compared to some other Infrared solutions I've found. I'm on a budget, and I don't have room to throw money away on things that don't work. My experience with UTK products is that they are very effective where heat can be helpful in managing pain. The stones help hold, distribute, and push the heat deeper in a comforting way. The other UTK large heating pad products are absolutely awesome, but can be heavy for elderly hands depending on the size, and are not highly portable. This belt is a manageable weight and far more portable. It can easily fit in luggage for travel. The trade with the larger size is that it doesn't have quite the coverage as one of the big pads, but the coverage is still good. I love the fact that this product comes in the XL belt size to accommodate anyone, which has also meant it can be used in other ways like across the shoulders. I think the massager is a nice touch and worth the extra spend. You don't have to use it with the heat if you choose not to, but it does help with the soothing effect and it is nice to have. The massage function feels like a soft vibration, and when you are in pain it is just enough to get relief but not hurt from it. I've read some of the UTK reviews for other products that are negative. Other than feedback about defective product issues (which I have not experienced), I have to say this isn't necessarily a casual heating solution. In my house we see it more as a therapy tool, and we treat these UTK products with care - keeping them clean and put up when not in use. So far they have held up wonderfully with consistent use. When your day is rough it can help keep your pain from escalating. But you must be aware of how you are using it, because it can get very hot. For my loved ones, it provides non medicinal relief without side effects, and you can't put a price on that.

This company’s customer service is A+++++ I love their products. Well made, Durable and Strong Penetrating Heat! This device gets it done. I’ve tried many other similar products…None perform nearly as good as this one. Hot, Strong Massage and Long Lasting Pain Relief.

Vibration thing doesnt do anything for me but the heating (reason i bought it) works really well imo. Its a little pricey, but I like it ^_^ its comfortable and has a really good heat range, plus the cord is super long (can be a good or bad thing depending on the person, but I like it).

Waste of money. The heat was great but the massager just ok. Mine stopped working in less than 6 mos.

So, I have had this for 2 years now and I use it nightly, often for hours on end due to having chronic pain. My favorite part about this heating pad is that it is zero EMF. Because I use this heating pad as often as I do, it was important to me to have something with lower EMF. This heating pad has a bit of weight to it. I find that to be really nice because that added pressure is also beneficial to my pain management. The settings to change the vibration frequency and the length of time for heating is very nice. I believe the only upgrade that could be made to this is allowing the vibration to run continuously without timing out. It is semi flexible but not bendable because of the stones inside. There is a soft fabric on the back and on the straps that wrap around the body. It feels very high quality and it was worth every penny. It has a good warranty but you can get an extended warranty if you like.

I was very surprised that this was warmer and penetrated deeper then my regular heating pad but wasn't as hot on my skin. Love that it has a long cord. I won't use it now till late fall but it definitely helps. This is fantastic. The strap is also exceptionally long so I can wrap it around my waist. It is really helping with my shoulder pain. It's very well made Update: I needed to contact customer support for a problem. They were quick to respond and we're extremely helpful. It was great to actually deal with real people

Very easy to use and a great fit. My only wish would be that it was wireless and rechargeable. But it works so great I forget I have it on.
