Therapeutic heating is effective at treating conditions such as arthritis, back pain, chronic pain, joint contractures, soft tissue and repetitive stress injuries.
Why does the back therapy garment go in and out of tune?
The back therapy garment goes in and out of tune due to the amount of pressure being applied against the therapy garment. Prior to beginning therapy, place the therapy recipient in a comfortable position. Once the recipient is in a comfortable position, tune the therapy garment and begin therapy. If the back therapy garment goes out of tune, either have the recipient go back into the original position or simply retune the therapy garment using the black knob on the therapy garment.

- increased microvascular perfusion
- activation of fibroblast growth factors
- increased macrophage activity
- increased extensibility of collagen fibers in tendons and joint capsules
- reduced viscosity of fluid element within the tissues
- decreased joint stiffness
- reduced muscle spasm
- diminished pain perception
- increased metabolism
- increased blood flow
- vasodilation
