I am a health freak and heard the Healthy Wave Inframat Pro has got detoxifying and relaxing properties. I never tried any of the more expensive infrared mats before, so cannot compare them to this product. My husband is particularly keen on using it as he has been suffering from a chronic lower back pain for extended period of time. He’s also been prescribed various medications over the past few years, yet nothing seemed to help. This mat has finally brought him a relief – he initially didn’t want me to order it and thought it’s a fiddle! But, as we both are using it now – and for different purposes, I am very impressed with it. I would recommend it to anyone.
