In order to bring positive effects, heat treatment does not require high temperatures
or long time applications. It is with this premise in mind that the new series of heating
bandages was created. Operating temperature is set at approximately 55ºC, as measured in
laboratory conditions. To get maximum benefit from heat treatment it is recommended to
apply the bandage during 20 to 30 minutes. Consult your physician or physiotherapist.
Heat must be clearly perceptible but never excessive. It should always be pleasant and
should never cause physical trouble. Take care to inspect frequently the skin in order to
avoid skin burns. Disconnect the bandage immediately if you note burning or itch or if the
skin turns red or presents inflammations.
