Overview
A heating pad with a flannel cover that pulls moisture from the air gives the Thermophore MaxHeat its moist heat without adding water. A one-touch switch sets the stage, and a timer ends each treatment automatically.
Moist heat without wet towels in a neck sized pad is the reason to buy for arthritis stiffness. The pad is small, sessions are timed, and the listing disagrees on how many settings it has.
Who it's for
Stiff necks and small sore areas in people with arthritis suit this petite pad. Anyone wanting to cover the lower back or rest on heat for long stretches should look at a larger pad.
Pros and cons
- Moist heat without adding water
- Auto shut-off timer
- Neck sized pad
- Small coverage area
- Short timed sessions
- Settings count conflicts in listing
Performance notes
The flannel draws humidity from the air, and the heated pad turns it into moist heat against the skin. The timer caps each treatment, which sets how long heat is applied before a restart.
