A new heat pad called Qfiber is claimed to speed recovery from injury and improve circulation using infrared-based heat.

The lightweight Qfiber works by delivering heat deep into the muscle and, unlike other heat pad products, doesn’t emit electro-magnetic frequencies.

The easy-to-heat wrap features an infrared heating coil that is combined with Qfiber fabric and will fit most parts of the body, including knees, legs, elbows, arms, ankles and shoulders.

Coming with a one-size-fits-all strap, which can extend up to a 52-inch waist, a Qfiber for wrists is also available.

The Qfiber can be run off a USB lead from a PC; a car charger; a mains socket or a battery pack.
