Far Infrared Gemstone Heating Pad - Medium Electric Heated Mat with Natural Amethyst, Jade and Tourmaline for Pain Releif - Negative Ions, Grounding and Sauna 40x24 inches

I purchased this item for my wife for Christmas. I did many hours of research on-line and came across HealthyLine during this time. There were many other options out there...some less expensive and some considerably more expensive than HealthyLine. Based on a number of the reviews, some from Holistic practitioners, I settled on the InfraMat Pro.My wife and I discovered FIR through our Massage Therapist who uses one on her massage table. The mat she used was one of the more expensive brands, which was way out of our price range. However, after reading the reviews of the InfraMat Pro as well as reviews of HealthyLine - the Company, I was pretty confident I was making a sensible decision. Plus, the Amazon return policy is always a Plus - just in case anything goes wrong.I have used the Mat at least 15 times at this point, and that same goes for my wife (In fact she is on the mat as I write this review). I have to say I am super impressed by its build quality, comfort, and heat settings. While it may not have the "high tech" control of the more expensive mats from other vendors, it does the job of heating up and controlling the heat, and it does it very well!My wife and I are super happy with the mat and we love using it!

I love this mat, it was bigger than expected and keeps my bed warm. Its softer than other brands and more comfortable. THe control is easy to use.

Unlike some others out there, this pad is very flexible which it makes it much more versatile in terms of where and when it can be used. It has significant heat range and output. I have a painful and debilitating musculoskeletal disease. I use it draped over the sofa and ottoman so that I can heat from the top of my shoulders to my calves when sitting on the couch. It provides significant pain relief andis particularly effective for low back and hip pain in that configuration. It heats up quickly. If I turn it on and sit on it, it reaches set temperature in less than five minutes. Be aware that it is heavy/bulky because it contains stones!My only wish is that they would make custom protective covers that fit the pad better. It is difficult to find something to cover it that protects the investment but does not interfere with the healthy effects of infrared heat. It comes with a small waterproof cover with elastic straps to fasten it to the pad, but the cover slips off easily. I ended up covering mine with a massage table fitted flannel sheet that also does not fit very well and is not waterproof in case of spills.

I have three of this company's products including a slightly smaller mat and a belt, both of which have half dollar size gem stones embedded into the surface. In some ways I prefer what would appear to be the harder mats (the stones are very flat) but this one definitely has a softer and more comfortable cover. But it is also thicker, which makes it somewhat more noticeable when lying on it and seems to pass less heat to the user at the same temperature setting. That being said, these products are great for chronic muscular pain, and work well for sleeping. The twelve hour timer is unique for heating products and this class of pads are equally unique as they can be used for a long time without burning or blistering the skin (like more traditional heating pads might).

This is my second purchase of a heating pad from Healthy Line. Well, technically it's my third. I first purchased the small tao mat, and immediately realized it was not big enough for me. So I sent it back (thank you Amazon and Healthy Line) and replaced it with a full length mat that I keep on one side of my bed. I use that mat for a few hours almost every night. I find it so helpful that I purchased this second mat for the sofa. A friend lent me her "Bio-Mat" to try, which is a more expensive MLM mat, and I found I liked the Healthy Line product better, as the temperature control is specifically adjustable. There is a big difference between 104 and 106 degrees when sleeping on the mat, and the healthy line mat lets you adjust by degree, while the "Bio_Mat" has a series of ranges. I like the specificity.

I have a slew of health issues, including arthritis and migraines, and this mat is so helpful for my circulation. It's also just so comforting and relaxing to just lie on for an hour or two. I love the temperature gauge that I can set to a low heat when I don't want to be sweating but can also turn it up high to increase the effects. I leave it on my massage table (which is predominantly my use only - very rarely for client use) and is a perfect place to use it, in my opinion. I keep it covered so the heat spreads evenly and more quickly, but I can't see the crystals that are very aesthetically pleasing. Compared to other similar products out there, it's a very reasonable price for the quality mat and the temperature settings available. I highly recommend this product!

I really like how sleepy this mat makes me, and that's what I bought it for. It's nice that it is flexible and somewhat 'softer' than more rigid gemstone mats so I can drape it over my lap or place it on the sofa in a sitting position. I have been traveling back and forth to my ski house and bringing this with me for apres ski relaxation, so it's great that it folds and has it's own case. I have also slept on it on a low temp setting and found it quite pleasant. I haven't really used it for detoxing yet, but we are enjoying it so far. I'll update as we use it . I've updated from 4 to 5 stars now that I know I don't want to live without it!UPDATE: 12-3-2019 Still loving this thing beyond reckoning. On cold nights I get home from work and fire it right up. Hubs likes it plenty, too. I decided to get a couple for Christmas gifts and figured I'd toss in the positive update.UPDATE: Had it for almost 2 years and still digging it. Daughter loves the one I bought her, too. Here to pick up another for my sister.

I love it! I have extensive nerve damage which causes me a lot of pain especially when I’m tired or stressed, and 10-20 minutes of lying on my mat relieves me of most of my pain. An added benefit is that it saves on my utility bill because I don’t have to turn on much heat in the winter! I bought three mats for our family, two full-body length mats and a short portable mat for travelling, as well as one to donate to our nonprofit organization. One of our full-length mats has the PEMF feature which we highly recommend for added healing benefit — I’ve done over 10 years of research on PEMF, and I’ve never seen anything of this quality offered so inexpensively — a real bargain. In addition, our nonprofit alternative health organization buys many Healthyline mats on behalf of our patients whom we treat with heat therapy. Heat therapy promotes circulation, allowing the body to heal faster; the mats are especially helpful in this regard for our patients who suffer from chronic pain and a myriad of illnesses. One of the volunteer therapists there even bought five of the higher end PEMF mats for her family, including one for the clinic! The sales manager Jade is a tireless, hardworking individual whose positive attitude and eagerness to please endears her to her customers. Sometimes a little slow in responding to emails because she gets so many orders, but you won’t go wrong with buying Healthyline products. Just one thing I strongly recommend is that you insist on having it delivered by Fedex rather than UPS. UPS has terrible service and even when I requested that they require a signature upon delivery, they just threw our packages outside our doorstep without notifying us, resulting in two of our Amazon products being stolen!

Love this mat. I had an epidural and my back can feel it in the winter. I almost caught a cold and had body aches and used this mat over night, no more aches in the morning. My feet don't hurt as much anymore. My joints don't hurt as much as last winter. Great investment. Totally worth it. I almost got the smaller one but I'm 5'2 so I thought this size would be perfect. It really is. :)
