Simply a miracle!
This product is a miracle literally. With so many scams out there, it’s hard to believe something so inexpensive works. I have many,many things wrong with my spine and I use these 24/7. Without them I could not walk or work for that matter. Do yourself a favor, try these and you won’t regret it. Sure they only last for 720 hours but just replace it for 9.99. That’s a fair payoff for glorious pain relief!

The one downside, other than no ability to replace battery…
Disclosure: I paid for this item in full from Amazon, but I was initially provided a sample of this through a sports organization. I liked the device and felt it worked well enough to purchase again and Amazon had a better price than the KT site (mostly due to shipping costs). Amazon, nor any of their sellers, did NOT provide a free or reduced cost sample.I was skeptical that around a piece of wire with a battery at one end would really do anything. I viewed it as a snake oil, but since I received a complementary sample I felt it was worth a shot and I really do feel it assisted with my pain. I have numerous painful orthopedic disabilities and skeptical about devices such as this. I’m glad I gave it a shot because I would say it reduces my chronic pain in whatever area I use it by about 35%. I felt that was effective enough to use it again and am planning on purchasing other units. The battery issue is discussed in many of these reviews. I share that issue as well.My bigger issue is the adhesive strips that are provided. They stick well, but can be quite uncomfortable to remove. Even more of an issue for me is the residue the adhesive strips leave on the loop. I used alcohol wipes and peroxide to try and remove the residue to no avail. Perhaps more scrubbing would remove the residue, but I fear too much pressure might cause damage to the wire and already had firm pressure on it when I was using the alcohol and peroxide.Upside: Nexcare Absolute Waterproof Tape works very well and does not leave a residue. It also moves with you if you use the loop in an area prone to flexing. I use this product in the evening and overnight and cannot speak to the ability to stick if wearing during a sweaty work out or in extremely humid conditions. The adhesive may be a better option under those conditions. The adhesive strips can be cut in half and found the smaller strips held just as well.From a production point of view, I wish they could sell this in a kit where you get two or three replacement batteries (or install a 500-750 hour life battery) and perhaps pay $20-25 more for it. It definitely would be more environmentally friendly in this manner. I’m sure the company can figure out how to make this a longer lasting product, but then their profits go down. I also wish there was a way the device could let you know you were down to your last 50 hours by changing the color of the light somehow. I can track 50 hours of use as it winds down, but not 250 hours of use.Overall, I’m glad I received a sample through the sports organization and clearly found it helpful enough to come here to Amazon to purchase one at regular price. I would recommend trying this if you have run out of other pain management options. Maybe it would be somewhat helpful, maybe not. But for about $30 I think it’s worth a shot.

Skip this and use ibuprofen
I really wanted to like this, but sometimes it didn’t turn on and I would spend too much time fiddling with it to get it to work. Not worth the stress.

GLAD TO SEE IT’S BAcK ON THE MARKET!
This is the same product that was sold as the Bioelectronics Acti-Patch PEMF – Pulsed ElectroMagnetic Field device. I have used these for five years, since breaking my back in 2016. Nothing’s perfect, and no pain relief is instant, but I do get a deep tissue relief when I use this. And I start to feel chronic back aches if I go a week or two without it. The positive effect is of this device is subtle but pervasive. I use it in combination with OTC pain meds (+ CBD & THC) to avoid the perils of opioid pain management. But my “discomfort” (pain) is chronic, and long term use of the Acti-patch (now the KT Recovery+ Wave™ Electromagnetic Pain Relief Device) has had no bad side effects that I can detect. The elastic/velcro torso wrap that formerly came with the Acti-patch is not included in the new packaging. It was perfect for my use on my back, maybe that is something KT should consider offering in the future.The battery is not replaceable. When it dies you have to buy a whole new device. But with intermittent use, each device lasts a long time, months in my case. As Acti-Patch, the Bioelectronics Corp, used to claim the device was good for up to 720 hours. However, the new K-T version claims only 250 hours of therapy per device. K-T seems to be trying to squeeze more money out of the device. Recommending more usage with less battery time, makes this once affordable therapy much more costly.Corporate take-overs. Hmph! Never good for the consumer. This would have been a five-star review if K-T hadn’t gone greedy.

I will be a customer for a long time!! 🫶🏼
I cannot say enough good things about this device. I first bought it several months after 7 disc neck fusion surgery and it provided no relief at all so I sent it back. (But I think it is understandable because that is a different type of pain) Several years later after reading reviews about it I decided I would give it another try and it is the best purchase I have made in years. I’ve purchased at least 20 of them and have only had a problem with 3. 2 of them turned on and I could not get them to turn off so the battery just drained, 1 I placed on my neck when I was in pain and did not get any relief and I was kind of surprised because I had received pain relief in that same spot for the same reason before so I switched it out with another one and the new one immediately gave me some relief. I’m almost afraid that this company will go out of business or they will run out that is why I purchased so many. I get 10 more from Amazon tomorrow. I let my sister use one and she did not even realize it, but for the first time in a long time, she was sitting there without any pain deep in her hip. She was very skeptical and did not think it would work because of how deep the pain was, but it did provide relief. I’ve used these on my knees, hip, SI joint, muscles by my shoulder blades, low back and my neck and I have received relief in each of those locations (in each of those locations the pain is caused by several different reasons from bone, muscle, degenerative disc disease etc!) I L❤️VE them!!!

These are great for reducing pain and inflammation. They work quickly and are comfortable to wear under clothing. Similar tech to Actipatch which you can’t get in Canada anymore.

I don’t know exactly how these loops work, but they sure do. I have one on right now. I’ve had a frozen shoulder for months. Any which way I try to move it, it’s unbelievably painful. I bought one of these for Christmas and was so impressed, I bought four more to have when this one dies. You don’t feel a thing – no heat, no tingling, nothing, which made me think it wasn’t working. However hours later I realized that for the first time in months, my shoulder was pain-free. Hours after I took it off I noticed that some pain and stiffness had returned so I put it on again the next day. After about a week of daily use, I can honestly say that my pain has reduced significantly to the point that I don’t need to wear it daily anymore, enabling me to use it on other areas of my body for pain relief. It’s fantastic and I highly recommend it! Great pain relief for the price!!
