The ergonomically designed Vulpes smart heated kidney belt, with it's lightweight butterfly shape, sits snugly on the lower back and kidney area to provide soothing warmth right where it is needed.
Whether to ease pain or simply to keep warm on cold days, the heated belt can be placed around your back and discretely worn under clothing no matter where you are. The soothing deep heat relaxes the surrounding muscles and enhances blood circulation.
You can control the heated belt manually with a three-mode control button or via the Vulpes app on a smartphone or via voice commands for iOS devices.
If you are suffering from lower back muscle strains or overexertion, tension in the muscles and soft tissue around the lower spine restricts correct circulation and pain signals are sent to the brain. Applying heat can help relieve pain from the muscle spasm and tightness in the lower back by:
- Dilating the blood vessels of the muscles surrounding the lumbar spine
- Stimulating the sensory receptors in the skin, decreasing transmission of pain signals to the brain and partially relieving the discomfort
- Facilitating stretching the soft tissues around the spine, including muscles, connective tissue and adhesions.
With heat therapy, there will be a decrease in stiffness and injury, and an increase in flexibility and feeling of comfort.
The heated belt is powered by a portable, rechargeable powerbank for use anywhere, and when in use fits snugly into an inner pocket with USB cable. The Vulpes Powerbank 8000 mAh with 5V/2A output port is included with the belt.
