Therapeutic heating is effective at treating conditions such as arthritis, back pain, chronic pain, joint contractures, soft tissue and repetitive stress injuries.
Can ReBoundTM treatment be applied directly against the skin?
Answer
We recommend using the therapy garments over clothing or with a protective barrier such as a towel. This helps ensure the treatment is comfortable for the recipient and minimizes the number of times the therapy garments need to be cleaned.
