Very nice...
I'm used to using traditional heating pads for back pain... this one was intriguing to me because it has some features that look different than typical heating pads - notably the jade rocks and the infrared heat option. I am not sure about the jade rocks but was curious to give it a whirl. This heating pad comes rolled up in a nice looking box. It has an included storage/carrying bag (nothing fancy), as well as an elastic/velcro strap that you could use to strap this thing to your back while you're sitting up or something. There's a power cord that detaches from the pad, and the cord has an in-line remote similar to other heating pads. The instructions say that this doesn't work like other heating pads, to turn it on, leave it warm up for 10 mins before use. I followed the directions. I had it set to the max temp of 158f. There is an LCD display on the remote that shows what temp it is actually at, and after some time it was hanging around 140ish. I decided to just use it. It does feel warm to the touch, and the infrared heat does feel like it radiates into your muscles. It feels like it does a better job than "normal" heating pads. Probably the only thing about it that threw me off a little bit, is even after using it for roughly an hour, the max temp seems to hang around 139-141ish, and doesn't get close to the set temp of 158. It still feels plenty warm and everything, but I just found that a little odd.
