TAO Far Infrared Heating Pad for Back, 18 x 18

Great heating pad. It feels so comforting and calming. I have had the round disk pads with jade and rose quarts and they can sometimes get a hotspot near the cord and they're made of PU that flakes apart after a while. Not so with this pad. Whatever fabric they use is good so far and doesn't seem to be PU. I do wish it was slightly more bendable to form to my body but it can also be good to have it be more stiff which makes it more manageable in some instances. I love the exact temperature controls. I feel much more in control of the settings. Also love the extended time setting up to 12 hours. Great for when you're not well and need it to stay on without being bothered by resetting it every 90 minutes like some pads. My Mother commandeered this one and I will be getting another ASAP.

My skull is crushing my spine I have pain that makes me physically ill and can’t wear my glasses because they lay over inflamed nerves. Have to sit in the dark and cry most days. Pain clinic, acupuncture helps tremendously and PT does as well. It’s times when the pain gets so far out of control you can’t control it on your own. I’ve kicked Opioids clean 4 years today. This was my gift to myself and so happy I invested in this pillow! I did not get the cotton pad as promised which bummed me out. Not sending it back they sent a Mylar space blanket which I’m sure is expensive I can’t use it tho with the pillow, the mat yes, I’m grateful either way for the pain relief. Yes there was a short small window of a smell when first heated up dissipated quickly. Easy to use and they have a wonderful line of many products I’m looking forward to trying one day! I have a Ridgeway Biomat which I love and this will marry nicely for my Reiki Table!!

She was experiencing some mild pain due to onset of IVDD. Her vet recommended an Assisi Loop, which I bought, but found difficult to use on her. (She is very wiggly.) The company who sold me the Loop recommended an Assisi Lounge, if I found the Loop successful. I ended up trying the Loop on myself, and I was pleased with the result (and I am a cynic when it comes to this kind of stuff), but the Lounge was small and expensive, so I started shopping around and found this mat. It has the same pEMF as the Lounge, but also has the heat, timer, IR therapy, and (cynic popping back in) heated crystal therapy. Whatever it does, it works. My dog's physical therapist (who also was a fan of the Loop) is thrilled with her progress and says she has no noticeable pain anymore. (She had a little belly pain before and pain at the T5.) I keep it under her dog bed in her vehicle kennel, so she lays on it for about an hour every day, as we drive to work. I don't know how much of the IR she is getting through a sheepskin fleece, and I have the temp set at 75F, since she is a lab and doesn't like to be too warm, but I think the pEMF is working through the fabric (the brochure says it does) and the mat does warm up her bed a bit, which is nice for her when she has to hop in on a sub-40F day and I have already pre-warmed the bed for her. Or maybe it is the crystals. Whatever it is, it is helping, and she is acting about three years younger than her age.

I have had multiple neck injuries over the years. The pain was hard to manage. I have been sleeping with this neck pillow for a week. I am getting relief and my pain is going away. I had to adjust from my soft pillow, which wasn't providing any support, to this pillow. But it is worth it! Now, I don't want to use any other neck head support while sleeping. THANK YOU!!!

(Their feedback is bogus. They do not sell apple products etc) anyways…the heating is inconsistent and instead of relaxing I am having to focus too much on the heat. It will get extremely hot on a setting of 100* or it’ll not heat up at all on a setting of 135*. The timer is for looks only as it literally does nothing. Unfortunately, I am 6 weeks outside of amazons return window. Not like 6 months or 6 years or 6 decades. Sellers phone number only goes to voice mail. And…the timer doesn’t do anything! And… Ok…so I am NOT a seamstress…but I tried. The handle ripped out when I picked up the bag on my second use. I didn’t mind too bad but when this defective heating problem began on the 5th use, I cannot safely use the mat. My question is…why should I pay so much for an item that clearly needs to stored in a protective bag only to find out the bag is cheap cheap cheap. Not only that, but you must know origami in order to fold this thing to get it in the bag. UPDATE: 4/24/23 Healthyline emailed me with a myriad of things to try to fix the problem. It was ridiculous! I’m surprised it didn’t include something like do the chicken dance while standing on your head and clicking your heels together three times. Needless to say it did not resolve the issue. Today I finally spoke with a person I assume is from the company even though she didn’t even use the company name once and only answered “hello”. Regardless…I was told it’s outside of their return policy also. I asked to speak with a supervisor and was told, “they’ll just tell you the same thing”. I said that’s ok I’d like to speak with them. Hopefully they’ll call. I simply want a refund. I don’t want a replacement. At this point I’m so irritated over this entire sham that I wouldn’t use it even if they sent one. I’ll keep ya posted!

I bought this mat for my massage practice. My husband and I tried it out for about 2 weeks before I used it with clients. I ended up morning to keep it at home because it felt so nice to lay on before we went to bed. A couple of my clients have tried it before I gave them a massage and they loved it. I would order this again if I decide to get one just to use at home.

I was a bit hesitant about this mat at first. I couldn’t really feel the PEMF functions, but I could see it with the test kit included. Well one night I got a terrible headache and so I slept on the mat. I woke up with no signs of a headache! I look forward to using this mat time and time again.

I love this infrared chair heating pad! This is an awesome product and I recommend everyone getting one. What a difference in my back since I started using it. Pain has decreased, flexibility is better and I just feel better .

Excellent Product.

Still good for the feet

As good as Biomat! I love it!

Have not been able to receive support from healthy line even though it is within the 1 year warranty and has completely stopped working.
