This is an update to the review I wrote on 3/18/22 you can see if you scroll back through the reviews. I received the belt I purchased and have been using it for 4 months, since April 2022 . It has performed beyond my expectations. I've gotten more pain relief from this belt than a years worth of physical therapy. By the 3rd week of using this, my physical therapist was shocked at how well I was able to stand up from a sitting position and how less stiff my walking gait became. Daily application to my low back and hips for about 3 weeks has almost eliminated crippling sciatic cramping in my left thigh that had persisted for years. It has worked great for reducing swelling in an old knee injury flare up too. Being able to use the belt for regular therapy as well as spot treat flare ups has greatly reduced my need for OTC pain medications. I can get by with the red light belt and natural anti-inflammatory herbs 95% of the time now. The only downsides: 1) is it took a little time to figure out the timer connections and battery charging. But it looks like the company took care of that and have updated the instructions. 2) I'm not thrilled about the PVC type plastic cover on the LED's being heated and right up against my skin, but there is really no other practical way to put a protective light permeable barrier on the device, so it is was it is. 3) The belt had a strong neoprene odor when first received, but it dissipated in a few days out of the packaging and no longer noticeable. I'm also a licensed medical professional and I can say from my personal experience using this, I highly recommend you give this a try if you are suffering from musculoskeletal pain in the back, legs, shoulders, or other joints.
The belt works for my wife’s sore back and hips and also soreness in my thumbs.I found that folding the belt in half you can use it like a mitt for your hands also believe it will work on other parts of the body like the shoulders. When first using the belt you think how can this work but It does. The only thing I found confusing was the wiring to the battery like other reviews claimed, the battery has to be on for charging .The battery has it’s own power supply which has a red and green led to tell you when charging and done.The button on the remote could be a little bigger and the belt a little longer but the unit works fine .Have plenty of red LEDS to get the job done.Would recommend to others.
So far it has helped in the aches and pains of both my wife and myself. My wife has been helped with a reduction of pain from arthritis and scoliosis. I have eczema and my ankle skin has gone from a red color to a tannish color and is still getting better. So far, the therapy belt has helped. It isn't a fast difference, but it is a slow steady move to less pain and eczema. 5 star.
Very good. Since I work with a fantastic company that sells RLT devices to healthcare professionals, I decided to try it myself on a personal level. Though the Mito is not FDA cleared like the device I represent, I still found it helpful and worthwhile.
The belt is easy to program and use. I love the versatility of the battery pack so I can wear the belt anywhere. I also like the oscillating option for a cooler therapy experience.
I typically do not give reviews until I have had several months to get familiar with an item. I can say that for acute pain, this seems to work pretty darn well. It has also seems to make a difference in sleep. I do not nap, but can put this over my eyes and be out for about 20 minutes for a nice break in the day. Ask me in 6 months how I feel about chronic pain issues.
