Can anyone recommend one that is better then the rest. Is Thermopane any good? Do they sell them in any stores?

I need something because I'm having bad shoulder/ hand pains.

[TheraTherm Digital Moist Heating Pad
Theratherm, a digital electric moist heating pad is designed for the convenience of home use. The digital moist heating pad provides temporary relief from pain associated with muscle spasm and inflammation caused by strain and tension.

The Theratherm Digital moist heating pad is easier to use than the other electric heating pads on the market due to its unique digital hand control. Most competitive units require continuous contact with a spring-loaded switch to generate and maintain heat from the pad. The digital controller allows one to set the temperature and time as well as features a lockout mode to guard against remiss touching of the controls during treatment.

TheraTherm draws moisture from the air and retains it in a specially designed 100% cotton cover. The retained moisture is rapidly heated by high-grade ceramics allowing deeper penetration of heat into the body's tissue. ]

[THERMOTEX INFRARED THERAPY SYSTEMS are a patented range of deep tissue infrared heat pads designed to relieve pain, promote healing and accelerate rehabilitation.

Unlike conventional hot packs or heat pads that simply heat the surface of the skin by conduction, Thermotex safely delivers FAR infrared thermal energy beneath the surface of the skin.

Thermotex re-invented infrared by producing 100% FAR infrared, replacing conventional infrared lamps which emit light from different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum and must therefore be used with caution. In studies the unique subcutaneous heat delivery mechanism of Thermotex has been shown to raise temperatures at depths of 6 cm beneath the surface of the skin after just 20 minutes of use.

Thermotex deep tissue infrared heat therapy delivers prolonged heat where it is most needed. This effectively increases blood flow into the targeted area to deliver nutrients and oxygen and to keep tissues healthy while eliminating waste and easing inflammation.

* Deep tissue radiant heat creates increased blood flow to where it is needed
* Easy to operate and highly portable
* Convenient to use, in clinics, at home, at work and even in the car
* Can be used over casts or bandage
* Range designed to fit easily on different body parts
* Safe and extremely economical to use]
