SpeedHeat - Features and Benefits

Coloured blocks

Inditherm SpeedHeat is a new method for applying controlled heat to various muscles, ligaments, tendons and joints. The products use Inditherm's patented flexible polymer technology to provide convenient, effective heating.

SpeedHeat is an alternative to heat packs, wheat bags, wax baths and infrared lamps for muscle injury, muscle warming, tendon injury, tennis elbow and other physiotherapy needs.

High Performance

Heating has long been used in treating muscle injuries and for therapy, but has largely relied on techniques where the heating delivered is difficult to quantify (e.g. heat lamps, hot baths, heat packs, etc). Inditherm SpeedHeat delivers precise, controlled heat treatment, directly to the area required.

Practical & Convenient

Heating pads are flexible and lightweight and are designed to fit directly around the area to be treated. Several pads can be fitted and operated at the same time where concurrent therapy is required. The heating pads are quickly and easily attached using integral Velcro straps.

Proven Results

Inditherm SpeedHeat has been used in a wide range of clinical applications. It is routinely used by a large number of English and Scottish football league clubs and is accepted as the most flexible muscle heat therapy system available. Sufferers from conditions such as arthritis and tendon disorders have reported significant therapeutic benefit from brief daily use.

Simple to Use

Pads are custom designed for the various areas of application and are easily fitted. The control unit displays heating pad temperature; simple Up/Down control buttons are used to adjust the required heat level. Settings in use are automatically stored and recalled when the unit is turned on again.

Safe & Reliable

Inditherm SpeedHeat uses low voltage (24V) to power the heating pads, ensuring that patient safety is maintained at all times. The temperature of the pad is continuously monitored by an in-built thermistor, to ensure that heating is constant, reliable and controlled. The product is fully certified to international medical device standards.
