Yes, correct, the HEALiX-"Z" is our zipper version

It can be used on most any surface, a bare floor is actually not our recommendation. A bed, couch or massage table works best. You want some sort of insulation below the unit.

As long as there are no underlying health issues which may be direct contraindications to infrared, yes. With every user, despite age, personal preference, as well as goals, plays a large roll in comfort of the session. But we have many clients in the 65+ age range using this product.

Our Mats are made in a FDA certified manufacturing facility. They come through FDA customs as a class II medical device, however, we have no plans to apply for FDA approval specifically for the device. After reviewing the process and requirements, we do not find it to be of value. There is little requirement past paying a fee.

The inner liner is waterproof which makes clean up simple! After the session is over, open up the unit and you can wipe up any excess sweat with a towel. For sanitation, we recommend a mixture of water and organic essential oil with antibacterial qualities. This mixture can be sprayed on, left to sit a few minutes then wiped up. OR, this can be left on to dry. The product can handle any type of cleaner, but this is our recommendation. We also sell a towel liner, making clean up even easier.

Our HEALiX units are designed in multiples of 2 degrees F, so you can set it at 99 or 101F. We do not recommend running the unit for longer than 60 minutes continuously, although, at a low level like 101F a short pause of 3-5 minutes should be sufficient in-between 60 minute intervals.

Hello Jonathan! The HEALiX is 72 inches long. Unfortunately, anyone over 6' 2" is going to have their shoulders protruding from the unit. This is only a problem if heavy sweat and detox are your goals. We have fit individuals over 300lbs in the product.

Hey Susan, this is typical, as the thermostat turns the heat on and off to maximize energy efficiency while maintaining the temperature +/- 5 degrees

Unfortunately, individuals over 6'2" will most likely have their shoulders protruding out of the blankets top border.

We have spoken to clients who are around that height and approximately 250lbs. That was a comfortable fit according to their feedback. Outside of that feedback, we can say that the compartment is capable of having a height about 24 inches high. We always have a satisfaction guarantee all clients qualify for.

Hi Gary, I do believe there are a few reviews here on the page referring to RA and chronic pain. We do serve that community often. We also have a couple of ladies on instagram that often speak to their journey with RA and how they have worked our product into their routine. @rachelalbo and @healing_arthritis_holistically. The blanket is flexible to be used in a recliner, but if that is your goal, I recommend waiting until we release a zipper version in April/May for easier entry/exit.

Hello Nick! Thanks for reaching out. Our thermostat allows users to program the heat to 176F. This is for the internal temperature of the infrared coils, which is industry standard. This setting allows the unit to be turned up to only 2 degrees below FCC regulations for safety purposes. The internal temperature of the blanket can range depending on individual, ambient temperature, and surface it is being used on from 130F to 155F at its highest temperature settings.

Yes! We are recently approved to accept HSA payment
