#Rethink Relief – Heat Therapy with Sunbeam

This post is sponsored by Sunbeam.

I’ve always been a fan of heat therapy for pain & discomfort from taking hot baths after long runs & races to using my products like the Sunbeam GoHeat™ Cordless Heating Pad to get relief vs taking ice baths & using over the counter medications.  Heat has always been my go-to.

As a Sunbeam Ambassador, I will be sharing information on heat therapy throughout the year and some of the products that Sunbeam has to help us “Rethink Relief”.

You might already know that heat is a natural, drug-free form of pain relief.  But you might not know that it increases blood flow which can relax sore muscles, accelerate tissue healing & relieve pain associated with muscle tension & stress.

I use heat therapy to help with my low & mid back issues as well as minor issues in my hips & knee on occasion.  It can also be used to help with cramps & menstrual pain, on your neck & shoulders.

The GoHeat™ Cordless Heating Pad is a perfect fit for people like myself who are always moving.  The long lasting battery pack fits perfectly into the side pocket and allows me to be able to do whatever I need to do.  From standing while working, cooking, working in the back yard, on our kitchen remodel, or coming back from a run in the mountains, I love that I don’t have to worry being plugged in.

It’s super easy to use, just charge the battery unit, plug it in using the small cord in the heating pad, press the button with the thermometer on it, once for low, twice for medium & three times for high and then put in the pocket & you’re good to go.

The rechargeable lithium-ion battery can give you up to 4 hours of relief in one charge on the low setting.  The flexible pad stays in place with an adjustable strap that can fit up to 55 inches around.  I found it to be quite comfortable.  It is a soft, micromink material and is machine washable.

You can feel the heat, even on the low setting within 30 seconds & there are 3 different settings so you can customize your relief.  Please note that the 4 hours of battery life is only for the lowest setting, when you move to the medium or high setting the battery life is lower.

Being able to use my GoHeat™ Cordless Heating Pad pretty much anywhere has been a game changer for me.  I no longer have to be by a plug or sitting on the couch.  I can be doing the things I need to do and still be getting relief.
