First you should tightly connect controller to the mat connector and
only aer this plug-in controller into the power outlet. Then turn ON
controller with toggle switch.
Controller also has a temperature dial to completely adjust the heat
in 1°C increments from 86 °F to 158 °F, displayed in Celsius from
30 °C to 70 °C. Sometimes we call the dierent temperatures “levels”.
Level 1 is 86-98 °F or 30-36 °C (Lowest mode, reveals crystals’ powers
and brings negative ions and other vital natural forces into your home while
you are seeking rest and mental clarity, great to sleep or relax).*
Level 2 is 98-110 °F or 36-43 °C (Low mode, provides a comfortable
setting for all night restful sleep to manage an occasional sleeplessness,
improve absentmindedness, relieve tiredness, and maintain proper
immune function).*
Level 3 is 110-120 °F or 43-49 °C (Low medium mode, great to
create maximum relaxation and immunity support environment, helpful
to maintain healthy heart, inspired and invigorated mind, improve look
of your skin).*
Level 4 is 120-133 °F or 49-56 °C (Medium mode, use as a part
of your dietary and healthy routine to maintain cholesterol and sugar
levels already within the normal range, alleviate the occasional blue
feeling everyone experiences from time to time).*
Level 5 is 133-145 °F or 56-63 °C (Medium High mode, may be helpful
for healthy lifestyle to alleviate occasional constipation, promote
sexual arousal and performance, relieve temporary water-weight gain
and mild mood changes bringing you back to normal condition).*
Level 6 is 145-158 °F or 63-70 °C (High mode, envelop yourself with
pleasant warmth of natural crystals and gemstones. Together with exercise
patterns it may encourage activity, contribute to spiritual balance, feeling
happy, cleansing, sweating, well-being and better overall health).*
Level 7 is 158 °F or 70 °C (Highest mode, use with extra care to create
maximum soothing environment important for proper muscles and joints
function, optimal strength and exibility, stress and tension reduction).
The temperatures above reect the temperature of the inner heating
elements, not the surface of the mat, which can be 10-20 °F lower (or
even lower than this) if the mat is not covered with a thick blanket.
Usually, if the ambient temperature is around 70 °F, it takes between a
half an hour to hour for the mat to reach the maximum level (158 °F,
or 70 °C) if covered it with a thick blanket.

ThermoGem™ belts and wraps have been carefully engineered for both
eectiveness and safety. But of course basic safety precautions should
always be observed when using any electrical device.
1. Never immerse the belt or wraps in water, do not use the product
in wet or excessively humid areas. Do not use it when your hands
or body are wet.
2. Changes or modications to the products can be dangerous and
may cause electric shock. Do not disassemble anything while the
power is ON.
3. Do not put heavy objects on the belt’s pad or wraps. Do not prick
the belt pad or wraps with pins, knives or sharp objects. Do not
step, walk, jump, run and avoid other types of pressure which can
damage inner sensors.
4. Do not put chemicals, solvents, volatile or ammable materials
such as benzene, thinner or kerosene on the belt or wraps.
5. Make sure that the receptacle where you plan to plug the belt
or hands wrap has the same voltage rating as the specications
indicated for each product (usually 110-120V/60Hz for North
America and Japan and 220-250V/50Hz for Europe and other
countries). Do not use travel adaptors in order not to damage your
belt or wraps and controller.
6. If your belt or wraps are made for U.S. electricity, 110-120V/60Hz,
with plugs for a standard U.S. grounded socket to use in 220-
250V countries, please purchase a step down power converter
transforming 220-240V to 110V. For these products we recommend
power converters with 150-200W capacity.
7. Always remember to turn o the electrical supply when not in use.
When unplugging device, do not attempt to pull the cord, pull it
out by holding the plug.
8. To protect your belt and wraps, use a surge protector. Power spike is
the main reason why a belt or hands wrap would ever malfunction,
an electrical surge kills the controller and renders the belt or wraps
unusable until a new controller is purchased.
9. Do not use the products when the cord is damaged or if the electrical
outlet is excessively loose, nd another socket that will correctly
hold the plug. Do not use the belt or wraps if they are damaged or if
connection between the pad with crystals and controller is not tight.
10. Your product has double safety advanced EMF free heating system
with emergency bimetal switches physically cutting o the electrical
wires if the main pad’s thermostat safety system fails and it overheats
to 180 °F (75 °C). Anyhow stop using and immediately unplug
the product from its power source (wall outlet) if you experience
strange conditions such as smell, smoke, shocks and/or re.
11. Clean the product only when the power is o and the controller is
unplugged from the AC outlet.
12. While heating NEVER put on the mat foam, rubber, yoga, camp
pads, mats, non-permeable covers or too thick (more than one
inch) plies of towels or heavy blankets to avoid overheating,
malfunction and re risks. If the topper you use on the heating mat
is not permeable (like rubber), it will trap the FIR heat, and the mat
will regularly overheat. Though, in this case, bimetal switches cut-
o electricity, when they work permanently, they wear o fast, and
the re danger goes up. This safety feature is designed to stop the
mat overheating only in emergency case if the controller fails. It is
not intended to operate as the main thermostat. If the whole mat is
covered with non-permeable material and continuously overheats,
the bimetal switches function all the time and wear-o. If they fail,
the mat will not be protected from overheating or re risks.
13. NEVER leave your mat unattended while heating up. NEVER heat
it in folded or rolled condition. NEVER put any solid objects such
as pillows, laptops, books, controllers, bags, etc. on the heating
surface of the thermal mat, since the heating system can burn it
and damage the mat. Bimetal switches work to protect the mat with
a body on it, or if the entire heating surface is covered uniformly
and only with porous layers. Emergency protection system may not
stop local overheat if it takes place only on a small part of the mat,
where there are no temperature sensors or bimetal switches.
ADDITIONAL INFO
*MediCrystal® and ThermoGem™products are not intended to diagnose, cure, treat, mitigate or prevent any disease, illness or medical condition or to substitute for medical treatment of any
kind. Information here is never to be construed as medical advice. These products and statements have not been evaluated by U.S. FDA (please, see Disclaimer in this user guide, page 11).
1. ThermoGem™ Belt is great for the lumbar, waist, lower back or
abdomen. It consists of belt strap with Velcro fasteners and our
smallest multilayer ThermoGem™ Pad attached on the strap. The
size of the standard Belt heating pad is 8”x18” (20x45 cm)
and it contains 1.5 pounds of crushed natural amethyst. XL Belt
pad is 8”x21” (20x52 cm) and it is lled with almost 2 pounds of
amethyst.
2. Belt straps with Velcro fasteners are 55” (140 cm) long for
standard Belt to t waists up to 50”. The strap of XL Belt is 63”
(160 cm) long and it is OK for waist up to 58”. If you are slim
better to choose the standard strap.
3. The exible 20”×18” (50×45cm) amethyst heating pad is mainly
used as hands or legs wraps. It is designed to focus on a specic
area of discomfort. The wrap is built with almost 4 pounds of crushed
natural amethyst crystals. These pads have Velcro straps to t both
le and right arms or legs of almost any size. Tension and muscle
relaxing hot stone warmth is combined with deep penetrating far
infrared rays, and calming negative ion function. You can envelop
your arms, hands, and wrists with soothing warmth and comfort.
May be helpful for your arms, hands, forearms and wrists but can also
be used on your legs and ankles or even for the lower back.
4. Your belt set should include, free of charge, a Thick High
Absorption Waterproof Quilted Multilayer Protector with
4-cornered elastic straps to x it on the belt pad. The cover is
breathable and permeable for FIR rays and ions. It is great for
absorbing sweat and for keeping the contact surfaces between the
body and the belt dry. This protector is machine washable on
gentle or hand wash cycle. Air drying is recommended. If you
do not have a cover or it is warn, you may use a towel instead.
5. The Belt and the wrapping pad are built with EMF free heating
systems but if you are sensitive, it is possible to preheat and
use them in unpowered mode simply unplugging from the
power outlet. You can put the Belt on to walk outside or to lay
in the bed before sleeping. Hot gems accumulate warmth and
transfer it in gentle and pleasant manner until they reach your
body temperature. But even then crystals will continue to use
your own body warmth to emit FIR rays and return warmth to
those parts of your body which need it.
6. ThermoGem™ Belt and wraps have a multilayer system construction
with up to 16 dierent layers. The special layers (with anion
generating bers) are added so that the belts or wraps generate
negative ions when they are turned on and functioning. Controllers do
not have the option to activate negative ion generation from the inner
belt or wraps layers because the ions generation starts automatically
when the belt or wraps are heating up, due to the piezoelectric and
pyroelectric eects caused by the distorted crystallographic structure
of the anion generating layers and natural amethyst crystals. Negative
ion generation will decrease when the belt or wraps cool down. The
number of ions goes up when you carry even the non-powered belt
or wraps as gemstones and negative ion generating layers start to
use your natural body heat to produce anions.
7. The outlets, bimetal safety switches, connectors, and controllers of
all electrical appliances including all brands of hot stone mats may
emit relatively higher levels up to 4-8 mG. Though it is generally
safe, and falls down to zero several inches away, if you are EMF
oversensitive, it is better to keep the controller away from your
head. Also, it is better to use the amethyst pillow or at least a
regular one to avoid occasional contacts between your head and
the mat connector near the logo on the top of the mat. Or you can
lay on the mat with your feet towards the connector. If you do
not feel comfortable on the powered mat, you can eliminate
exposure to any electricity just by preheating your stone
mattress to the maximum heat and unplugging it from the
power outlet before you lie on it. Hot crystals accumulate the
warmth and will naturally release it without electric power. It is
the best practice for long all-night sessions to avoid dehydration,
overstimulation, and buzz or dry mouth eects. Even aer the mat
cools down, it utilizes your body warmth to emit infrared rays and
negative ions naturally and safe.
8. We use the best in the industry advanced EMF-free heating
systems since 2016. Though the specication states maximum
2 mG emission from the heating surface, the real tests with
professional EMFs measuring devices show max 0.2 mG emission.
It is even closer to zero because when we test the background
EMFs on the unplugged mat, it is usually the same as on the
heating mat. You can check our videos for EMFs measurements on
MediCrystal youtube channel. Please disregard outdated, false or
non-professional information or videos about EMFs testing posted
on the internet by unfair competitors. Fortunately, nowadays the
testers are aordable for everyone, and the best practice is to
check EMFs of the mat and other home appliances yourself. The
best EMFs meters for home use combine simplicity, sensitivity to
electric and magnetic waves in a broad range, and ability to lter
out the noise distortions or measurement errors. We recommend
an easy to use the “K2 EMFs meter” manufactured in the U.S. and
available on Amazon for $60. This meter covers frequencies from
50 to 20,000 Hz and works ne instantly measuring EMFs of any
appliances.
9. Due to the artisan nature of the construction process there
is some dierence between belts or wraps regarding the
maximum temperature they may reach in the same conditions
and the heating speed. If the belt or wrapping pad is covered
with thick blanket or it is on your body, the max level of their bare
surface temperature may be in the range of 55-65 °C or 133–158
°F (displayed by the controller measuring the temperature of the
heating elements inside the belt or hands wrap as 65-72 °C),
which is quite normal. It is very important that you cover belt’s
or wrap’s pad COMPLETELY while preheating it. If you cover
it partially the temperature sensors positioned in the dierent
layers around all the surface will report dierent and controvercial
measurements to the main controller. Finally controller may loose
calibration and start to work incorrectly or malfunction.
10. The heated amethyst pad can be disconnected from the belt
strap and used as a small amethyst mat on the local areas of the
body. It is usually used for shoulders, knees, elbows, neck, hands,
legs and any other parts of the body. Detachable pad is great for
localized use, when you need to apply crystal rays and focus to some
area of your body without causing the whole body to undergo
hyperthermia. You can use it on high heat for local application
without overstimulating the whole body. It is portable, rather
bendable, and can be applied to almost any part of the body. The
Belt can also be used when you are on the large full body mat for the
more intensive sessions.
11. The Belt pads 8”x18” or 8”-21” (XL) and the wrapping pad
20”x18” are the smallest and least heavy, most mobile, portable
and easiest to handle ThermoGem™ mats great for lumbar, waist,
lower back or abdomen. The Belt can also be used as a belly band
for concealed wearing on the waist under clothes with the Pad
on the front and the straps fastened on the back. It is especially
valuable for women’s health and can be helpful during periods
to improve appearance and look of your skin, relieve mild mood
changes, cramps, and edema associated with the menstrual cycle.
For lower back the belt is carried with pad on the back and the
straps fastened on the belly. You can also lay on the wrapping
pad to focus it on your lower back. For lower back the belt is
carried with pad on the back and the straps fastened on the belly.
You can also lay on a twice larger than belt’s pad wrapping one to
focus it on your lower back.
12. If our stomach, intestine and other inner organs lack warmth, abdominal
and visceral fat may never completely go away no matter how hard we
diet or train. Once our abdominal region is warm, the body may decide
that the thick blanket of fat in the belly area is no longer needed. Of
CONTRAINDICATIONS*
The following may not be a full list of contraindications but if you
have any of them, avoid use of the far infrared mat, belt or wraps
in heating mode completely (unless you get approval from your
doctor).
Remember that it is your responsibility to seek the attention of a
health care professional before and during the use of this product,
which is not marketed as a medical device, nor claimed to be able
to heal or cure any sickness.
1. The recipients of any type of organ transplant should not use any
FIR pads. Aer organ transplant operations, patients usually are
prescribed immunosuppressant drugs to help prevent their immune
system from rejecting the transplanted organs. FIR and hot stone
sessions increase immune system function which is absolutely
contraindicated for organ transplant recipients.*
2. Pacemakers and debrillators users should not use FIR mats, belts or
wraps in powered modes without cardiologist approval. The function
of these products may be interfered with by the belts’ or wraps’
magnetic or heating functions.*
3. Expectant women should not use the heating practices. Excessive
temperatures have a potential for fetal damage. If pregnancy is
possible you should be able to use your mat, belt or pad in unpowered
mode for ion function but be sure to consult a physician before using
it for heating.*
4. Newborns and infants should not use the heat function. Their core body
temperature rises much faster than that of adults. This occurs due to
a higher metabolic rate per body mass, limited circulatory adaptation
to increased cardiac demands, and the inability to regulate body
temperature by sweating as well as adults are able to. Do not use your
mat, belt or wraps in heating modes on babies who cannot move away
or on children who cannot speak enough well to express themselves.*
5. Avoid use of the products in heating mode completely (unless you
get approval from your doctor) in the case of a recent stroke, aortic
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
course correct nutrition and exercises are essential for healthy active
lifestyle helpful to maintain normal weight and body composition.
13. If you sleep with your belt or wraps on the body be sure that the
heat level is on the safe, lowest levels of 35-45 °C or use the
belt either unpowered or in negative-ions-only mode (30 °C) at
night. Do not use high heat when you go to bed. Do not rely solely
on the timer. Some customers choose to connect the belt or wraps
through another timer plugged into the the wall outlet for double
safety in order not to fall asleep on the hot and dehydrate. Take
extra care during nighttime use and keep the belt or wraps only
on low heat settings.

1. It usually takes around 30-60 minutes for the belt or wrapping
pad to reach the maximum temperature if you put both a thick
protector and a thick blanket on top. Cover the belt or wrapping
pad with a blanket and leave it periodically, checking how hot it
is under the blanket.
2. The heating process stops and resumes again when the belt
or wraps cool down, to maintain the set temperature. During
this time, the gems become very warm and emit radiant Far
Infra-Red rays.
3. For extra electrical safety the heating wires are positioned
in a short distance from the amethyst pad edges so that the
end tubes with crystals are heated indirectly by other stones.
It is normal when these close to edges stones have a lower
temperature.
4. When the heat is on, the surface temperature of the bare belt or
wrapping pad under the blanket, or under your body if you are
on the pad, becomes hot to touch. At maximum heat level it
will reach 140-150 °F (60-65 °C) on the surface, if measured
immediately aer you stand up or remove the thick blanket or
pillow. But if you measure the bare pad surface temperature
in several minutes again it will be much lower, around 110-
130 °F (40-50 °C). If the belt or wraps are uncovered, and
room temperature is low or the air ow is strong, it will cool the
pad very quickly. This is normal – when preheated, the crystals
transfer most of the energy in the form of Far Infrared Rays very
quickly.
5. If you keep your belt or wraps open without the protector pad,
blanket, or your body on it, the heat is dissipated – and though
the controller may continue to show rather high temperature
inside the belt’s or hands wrap’s heating elements, the surface
will be merely warm to touch even on highest level.
6. Sometimes when the belt or hands wrap starts to heat some
humming or buzz noise can be heard from the controller which
is quite normal. But if the noise gets stronger or you feel any
smell or other signs of possible controller or belt or wraps
failure, please stop using the product and contact us.
7. It is OK for the controller to warm up a little when the belt or
wraps are on the highest heat level for a long time. But it is not
normal if the controller gets really hot or if you notice any
smell. Please turn o the belt or wraps and contact us for a free
replacement if this happens. Remember not to put controller on
the belt or wraps heating pad, even if it is cool. It may heat
up and damage the controller.
8. The most frequent reason for initial controller malfunction is an
incorrect order of connection. It is necessary to connect the belt
TIPS: USING YOUR BELT OR WRAPS
1. Please study the Catalog and User Guide included with your
product before rst use. They are easy to operate but the User
Guide has important safety information and a lot of dierent
useful tips that may help you get more benets and accelerate
the learning curve. Be sure to completely study the list of
contraindications and discuss them with a health professional.
2. Subscribe to MediCrystal® on youtube for educational videos. Our
youtube channel is https://www.youtube.com/MediCrystal
3. Consult your doctor how to use, especially it is important if you have
any chronic disease. Even if your health professional is not familiar
with hot crystal FIR, doctors usually can give good advice about how
such or similar well-known technologies like sauna or heating pads
will work, especially in the case of any existing health condition.
4. When you get the box with your product, if it is too cold or too
hot or wet outside, please, keep it inside for an hour to adjust
to room temperature and humidity before connecting to the
power socket. Open the box and take out your product carefully,
especially if it is a heavy one you may need someone’s help.
Check that all accessories are included. Put it on the oor, bed
or other at surface with the crystals side facing up.
5. Our products have special layers in the bottom that reect the
heat upwards. But if you use them laying on a hardwood oor
or on a memory foam mattress and the heating pad is under
your body, it may be better to put a towel beneath to dissipate
any remaining heat.
6. If your area is subject to frequent electrical blackouts or power
spikes, it could be better to connect your product to electricity
through a surge protector, AVR or UPS device similar to that
one which protects computers or refrigerators. It will protect the
controller from any malfunctions resulting from a power surge.
Please remember to turn the controller OFF and unplug your
product from the power socket aer use.
7. The rst heating should be to test your product at the highest
temperature level (70 °C equal to 158 °F) for 2-3 hours. This
will also help purge any possible odors from the fabric and other
layers’ remaining volatile particles. If you are oversensitive to
smells you may choose to air it out in a garage overnight. Our
mats and pads are made from the highest quality, ‘zero-emission’
materials but it is still better to do this. Do not put the protector
on the product or lay on it during this time.
8. Find a secure, dedicated area with calm surrounding and good
time to use your product with some degree of concentration.
Put up “do not disturb signs” and play some soothing music to
enhance your experience. Put on comfortable sleepwear and
relax. It may be a good idea to clean and scrub your body
to open the pores before your sessions, as this will facilitate
sweating and detoxication. You can preheat your belt, vest or
wraps and wear them concealed under clothes walking or running
outside. Mats are stationary and better to use them at home.
or wrapping pad to the controller rst, TIGHTLY, and only aer
this should you plug the controller into the outlet, then turn it
on and set the timer. Aer this you may set desired temperature.
When you disconnect, rst turn the controller to OFF, then
disconnect the plug from the socket – and only aer this (and
only if it is necessary), unplug the controller from the belt or
wraps.
9. Do not disconnect the controller from the belt or wraps more
frequently than necessary, in order to avoid the connection
becoming loose. If you connect the controller to the power
source rst (before connecting it to the belt or wraps), the safety
program will lock the controller and put it in ‘safe’ mode.
It may start to beep or will show OF or other error code on the
screen. To reactivate the controller simply reconnect it in the
correct order.
10. Choose the best position. FIR amethyst rays penetrate deep and
may awake resonant vibrations on micro level so that even aer
the session is over the body temperature may stay elevated to
normal level of 98.6 °F for up to 8 hours, which is good for
activity and rejuvenation. This phenomenon is described in the
European bestseller «98,6 – Ideal Body Temperature as the Secret
to Optimum Health» by famous German naturopath Dr Uwe. But
there is also the local eect when those tissues which are closest
to the belt or wraps receive more heat. It may be benecial for
them, but the highest levels may also cause some issues with
movement if you have stones, etc.*
11. If the product feels hard at the starting point, it is essential to
cushion it and eliminate the crystals’ pressure correctly. Put on
top a 3-D pad, and a cover included into the set of your product.
You can add several layers of bamboo, cotton sheets or towels, but
not more than one inch thick to make your mat even soer. As soon
as your body gets used to the crystals’ pressure, you may choose
to remove the extra layers one-by-one. Protectors and towels are
great for sweat absorption during heating sessions or for moderate
cushioning, but for high intensity, it may be better to use your
mat without any covering. With FIR, some of the heating rays will
dissipate if you use a thicker layer on top of the stone mat and
under your body. The same applies to negative ions, but most will
still travel through. As for longer sessions, even with covers the
product can still be too hard to sleep and too heavy to remove it
from your bed every evening (especially if you have a large size
mat). A simple solution is to put a 3-4 inch thick mattress pad on
top, which is lighter and easier to handle than the stone mat. Be
aware that you can cover your product with a thicker than one-inch
layer or a non-permeable foam pad ONLY aer the mat cools down.
To avoid overheating and re risks NEVER heat your product with
the topper or thick layer on it. Always remove the topper rst and
stenosis, myocardial infarction, heart attack, unstable angina
pectoris, if you take corticosteroids or have brain or other tumors.*
6. Anybody with diseases associated with a reduced ability to sweat or
insensitivity to heat should use products without heat, in negative
ions mode. Diabetic neuropathy may be a contraindication because
some diabetic patients loose sensitivity to heat.*
7. Nobody with diagnosed diseases, ailments or medical conditions
should ever use these products without approval from and/
or supervision of a physician. It may be extremely dangerous to
raise the body temperature to high levels for people with: Adrenal
suppression disorders, Addison’s disease, adrenal Insuciency,
systematic lupus erythematous, multiple sclerosis (MS), brain
tumors, bypass surgery, high hypertension or some other
conditions.*
8. Anybody taking medications or currently going under medical
treatments, radiation or chemotherapy should consult a physician
before using the products in heating mode. Some medicines as
diuretics, barbiturates, and beta-blockers may impair the body’s
natural heat loss mechanisms. Some over the counter drugs such as
antihistamines, blood thinners may also cause the body to be more
prone to heat stroke. Sleeping aids, pain killers, narcotics, anti-
psychotic medicines may be the most dangerous in impairing one’s
judgement. People under inuence of drugs, alcohol or intoxication
as well as patients with mental impairments or dementia should never
use the hot stone mats,pads, wraps, belt or other heating devices.*
9. Anybody experiencing a high fever should not use theproducts in
heating mode. Only the negative ions function can be used until the
fever stops.*
10. If you use heating creams or balms, liniments, salves or ointments
that contain heatproducing ingredients, you should never use them
with the belts, pads, wraps, mats unless recommended by a health
care professional so as to avoid burns.*
11. Anybody with fresh wounds, trauma, joint injuries or swollen hot joints
where the cold practices is necessary should not use any FIR mat, belt or
pad in heating mode, so as to avoid exacerbating any inammation.*
12. Anyone with a mental or physical disability or those with limited
mobility should use ThermoGem™ products in the negative-ions-only
mode unless under full supervision of a medical professional and
have a doctor’s approval.*
13. It is not recommended to use any part of the heating area of your
product directly on your head. Our brains do not have same ecient
cooling system as the other body does.
14. Stop using the products if any known conditions worsen while using
it. Pain should not be experienced when using them. However,
the infrared heat will go to areas of disease or discomfort – some
people may perceive this as pain and others as a sensation. If pain is
persistent, discontinue use.*
If you have any of these conditions, avoid using the products
completely unless under the care of a doctor with expertise in hot
stone or sauna detoxication.
While the above are some of the conditions which may pose dangers
denitely check with your doctor or a health professional experienced
in Far Infrared or sauna practices about your specic medical condition.
Remember that it is very important to properly hydrate with
pure and mineralized water before and aer sessions especially if
you sweat and loose electrolytes. It will help to avoid dry mouth
feeling, weekness and other symptoms of dehydration. A general
rule of thumb is to never begin a session thirsty or dehydrated and
drink a lot of mineral water, herbal teas or juices.

TIPS: USE WITH CAUTION*
leave only a thin cover or a 3-D pad before you turn ON heating
function.
12. Always keep your Waterproof Protector on the belt to protect
it from spills and dirt. But even if your belt occasionally gets wet,
do not worry, it has waterproof layers inside. Just let it completely
dry before using it again if it gets wet.
13. Be careful with your rst session. Use a slow and continuous
mode of increasing intensity. Begin with temperature levels as
low as 96–112°F (35-45 °C) and short sessions, no more than
a half hour, and gradually increase the length and intensity for
several minutes and/or degrees every other day. Remember to
drink a lot of water, fresh juices, or herbal teas. Replenish
minerals to avoid becoming drained or dehydrated. When you
start it is important to avoid overuse, and low temperature burns
and get the rst benets in a safe manner without the risks of side
eects from a “healing crisis”.
14. Most important is to listen to your body as you move forward –
“LOW and SLOW”. It is easy to overdo if you move ahead too
quickly, and the cumulative eects are much more desirable
without the lightheadedness or other side eects that can come
with rapid detoxication. The maximum time for each heat
level is not specied. It depends on the temperature level, and
one’s age, health, body size and composition, and many other
factors. Basically, the main rule is to start with low settings
and gradually increase the intensity, length and frequency of
sessions. Of course if you are an experienced FIR sauna user, you
can start with the maximum temperature level, or you can even
use the belt or wraps while laying on your whole body ThermoGem™
Mat to intensify the session, but we always recommend checking
with your doctor rst and using common sense to avoid overuse.
15. As soon as you are sure that your body reacts ne, you
can use your belt or wraps as long as you like. Unless
you have special needs, you can use it from a few times a
week for 30 minutes to 12 hours daily and it should be an
enjoyable process. If you want an intensive sweating sauna-
like detox, choose the maximum temperature suitable for your
health and cover your body with a blanket. If you just want
comfort, set the medium heat levels at around 112–122 °F
(45-50 °C). If you are just starting out 20 minutes may be
enough. Dierent people react dierently and enjoy dierent
modes. Some folks with weakness caused by hypothermia use
FIR belts or wraps all the time on slightly warm temperature
to revive and feel well again. Other people use amethyst
heating belts or wraps from one hour on high temperature
to 12 hours on warm temperature. Be sure that sessions are
comfortable for you and bring about a better feeling and
more energy, and of course remember to get approval from a
health professional.
16. If you accelerate this way, the rst aim is to create a feeling
of relaxation. To relax, you may have a short session before
bedtime of about half an hour, starting at 40-50 °C, and then
decreasing to the lowest levels of 30-40 °C If these levels cause
any lightheaded feeling or overstimulation, the temperature
should be set even lower or even the belt or wraps should be used
in unpowered mode. Especially in the summer, when it can absorb
some excess heat from your body and naturally return it in the
form of radiant crystal rays to those parts of your body which
need ore warmth.*
17. It may be impossible to cause sweating using only the belt or
wraps, but it is quite feasible if you combine it with a mini or
larger mat. Sweating is great for detoxifying the body but all
intensive high heat sessions should be done only with proper
rehydration and electrolyte replenishment, and within the rst
half of the day. It may take up to an hour to preheat the belt or
wraps under a thick blanket to a high heat level. Then you can lay
on your back on a bare belt or wraps, or a belt or wraps with a thin
protector or a towel on it and cover yourself with a blanket. Aer
the session, just leave the bare belt for half hour more while still
heating to dry it out. Of course if your body does not sweat much,
you may not start to sweat from the rst session – but aer
several sessions it should come. Drink a lot of hot herbal teas (not
cold drinks) before and during the session to accelerate sweating.
When your body gets used to sweating it will be easier to sweat
voluntarily.*
18. For FIR heating, if you lay bare on the bare mat with a belt
or wraps on your body and covered with a thick blanket, you
will get the maximum “detox” eect, as no heat will be lost
or dissipated. All crystal rays will be radiated into your body.
Some advanced customers even use foil blankets reecting
FIR Rays back to the body, but it is very intensive practices
and it cannot be recommended without a doctor’s approval.
Sweat releases a lot of toxins, and FIR releases even those
stored in deep fat tissue, into the blood. It may be irritating
and erosive to the surface of the belt or wraps. That is why
something like a sheet or a protector cover under your body
is must-have for everybody. Perspiration may also temporarily
make you feel worse, but when the sweat is out you should feel
refreshed.*
19. Wearing clothes or using covers or sheets on the belt or wraps
hinders some of the anion eects, but it should not be an obstacle
to FIR Heat.
20. If you are falling asleep while wearing the belt or wraps, choose
30-45 °C or 86-110 °F low level of FIR Heat before going to
bed.*
21. Getting a headache or feeling dizzy is a sign of “healing crisis”
(dehydration). It means that you are detoxing too fast. Lower
the temperature, drink more water and stay on the belt or
wraps for shorter time. It is important to feel comfortable and
enjoy your experience, so listen to your body and adjust intensity
and duration accordingly.
1. Extra care is necessary if you are diagnosed with diabetes. If
patient has a lot of sugar in the blood, it clots the blood vessels
and causes nerve disorders. Some people with diabetes can, over
time, develop nerve damage throughout the body. It is called
diabetic neuropathy. If you have diabetic neuropathy and loss of
sensitivity you should use a strict time/frequency/temperature
protocol established by your doctor, and only under supervision.
You should start very slowly and monitor your blood sugar.*
2. Titanium pins, rods, articial joints or any other modern surgical
implants usually reect FIR rays so they should be generally safe.
But some joint replacements and piercings with other metals may
be warmed by infrared rays. So safety precautions should be
taken if you lay with joint replacements in direct contact with
the belt or wraps. If you apply your belt pad or wraps to the other
parts of your body, there should not be a problem. But of course
if you feel any discomfort in the implants area, it would be
better to decrease the temperature and session length or to
turn the product OFF. It is also advised that you consult your
surgeon and implant manufacturer.*
3. Silicon implants may be warmed by infrared rays, so safety
precautions should be taken if you lay with implants in direct
contact with the heating pad. If one has breast implants but
lays face-up, there should not be a problem. Usually silicon used
in medical implants is known to melt at over 200 °C (392 °F),
so it should not be adversely aected by infrared rays. Please,
consult your surgeon and implants manufacturer prior to use of
heat directly on implants areas.*
4. Heating of the low back or low abdomen areas of a woman’s
body during the menstrual period may temporarily increase their
menstrual discharge. Some women endure this process to gain
the pain relief commonly associated with their cycle, whereas
others simply choose to avoid using the product during that time
of the month.*
5. It is reasonable not to use any heating pad on your groin area,
face, head and all other areas sensitive to heat. If contraception
is not your aim, do not apply heat to your genitals.*
6. Children may use mats or other items with caution and under
supervision of adults, preferably on low heat or negative ions
mode only. Consult with the child’s pediatrician before using the
FIR pads and use common sense. Do not leave children or toddlers
on the mat, or with the belt, wraps or other hot stone pad without
supervision. They can walk, play or jump on the pad with crystals
and damage inner sensors. Children can disconnect cables and put
them into their mouths and get shocked. Take extra care if your
child has access to the room where the belt or hands wrap or any
other electrical device is located.*
7. If you use medicines applied by skin patches, you should
denitely consult your doctor. The absorption rate of a
transdermal medication can change. If you use an adhesive, it
may also unglue from your skin due to sweating.*
8. Cats and dogs love amethyst and gemstone pads. They feel some
energies better than humans. We suggest to have an additional
waterproof cover for the pad to protect it from any liquid
and make sure your pet will not chew or scratch the cable,
controller or pad. We recommend cheaper and safe non-
powered, non-electric amethyst or gemstone mats for pets.
Consult with a veterinarian prior to use belt or wraps for heating.
Be careful with pets sleeping on the device. It should always be
turned o without supervision.*
9. You should always drink A LOT before the session, during the
session and aer the session – if you feel dry mouth it means
that there is not enough water in the body. And it should not
be just water, you may need to replenish some electrolytes and
minerals as Ca, K, Mg, Na. Twitching may be a sign of these salts’
serious decit or imbalance so if you sweat a lot herbal teas, fruit
juices, and mineral water rich in K and Mg or mineral supplements
TIPS: TROUBLESHOOTING
may be necessary. Proper hydration also promotes all eects
improving detoxication caused by sweating.*
10. Overusing the product on maximum temperature may result
in excessive stimulation. Use moderately on high temperature.
Even if your product can heat in a continuous mode, it is strongly
recommended not to use the high heat settings for more than 3
hours for your safety! Some temporary symptoms of organism
detoxication (“healing crisis”) may occur especially if you start
too fast.*
11. Detoxication high heat program should not be done without a
doctor’s approval and supervision. Some drugs, chemicals, and
toxins which we take into our bodies with air or food end up getting
stored in our fat tissue. They can aect you as you mobilize them
and sweat them out. Before toxins are excreted and exit through the
sweat pores they are absorbed from your decomposed by FIR heat
fat tissues into the bloodstream. While traveling on their way to be
eliminated, substances can exert the same eects that they do when
you had originally taken them. If a lot of residue was accumulated
in your fat tissue and their release is too fast, the buildup of
these poisons can make you feel worse. That is what is called
detoxication or a “healing crisis”. If you are chemically allergic
or extra sensitive, the dangers of infrared function, regarding the
release of toxins, may be serious. If you feel any signs of “healing
crisis”, stop using the product and consult your doctor as the same
symptoms may be also the signs of serious illness.
12. William Rea, MD, one of the most knowledgeable doctors in the
world regarding environmental toxicity and sauna detoxication,
warns: “Uncontrolled, too-rapid mobilization can have
devastating eects on chemically sensitive patients.” Of course
it does not mean that chemically sensitive people cannot get rid
of toxins. Just that it should be done very slowly and carefully, and
with a doctor’s supervised detox program. Slowly and gradually
increasing heat level, session length, and frequency is the
best path forward and It is important to immediately decrease
intensity, duration and frequency of sessions and contact your
health professional if you feel symptoms of a “healing crisis”.*
13. Very careful approach is appropriate to FIR heat function. Our
skin sensors can easily detect the high temperature caused by
standard conduction heat, but our ability to feel the eects
of radiant infrared heat is limited. The FIR warmth is much
more penetrating, so the hot stone pads should be used on much
lower sensible temperature than a standard heating pad, and it
demands extra care, especially for long or all-night use.
Use common sense, self-educate, listen to your body and we hope
you experience as many positive results as we have, now that you
have your own ThermoGem™ Mat, Belt, Pad or Wraps.
1. Ensure the electrical wall socket that you’ve plugged the
apparatus into is working correctly. Plug another device into it
to ensure it has power. If it is not working, consider checking the
electrical panel as a breaker may have popped (or broken) and
needs to be reset. Or try another electrical wall socket that you
have veried is powering other devices. If you are using a surge
protector, ensure it is working properly. Plug another electrical
device into and verify that it is working.
2. Ensure the controller’s plug is pushed all the way in to the
belt’s receptacle socket so that it is snug tight with no space
at all between the plug and the mat’s (belt’s or pad’s) or hands
wrap’s socket. A loose connection can cause loss of signal exchange
between the mat with crystals and the controller, and when too many
errors accumulate the controller’s calibration may fail. Controller
will show error messages or the apparatus will not heat up properly.
3. Make sure that the power button on the controller has been
turned ON. The controller may show OFF on display. It means
that either preset heating time is over or the connection between
controller and belt or hands wrap is lost. Try adding time,
powering the controller ON/OFF, or reconnecting it.
4. Please activate the timer button and choose one of the timer settings
to start heating. Some models of the controllers do not activate
heating function unless a timer is set.
5. Frequent reason for the new controller fault and errors is an
incorrect order of controller connection. Please, rst connect
the pad, mat, belt or wraps to the controller, and only aer
this plug the controller into an electrical outlet and turn
the controller ON. When you disconnect, rst turn it OFF, then
disconnect the plug from the socket, and only aer this unplug the
controller from the apparatus. If you connect the controller to

the power source rst, the safety program may lock it and go
into safe mode. It may start to beep or will show OF or OP error
on the screen. The same may happen if there is a loss of signal
interchange between the belt or hands wrap and the controller. To
reset it just reconnect it in the correct order.
6. If controller shows errors, the easiest way to solve the
problem is to reset it. Disconnect the plug from the socket
rst and then from the belt or hands wrap connection terminal.
When you disconnect the plug from the appliance, please always
do it carefully with two hands, holding the connector with one
hand while the other hand pulls the plug. Pull the plug out of the
connector on the device carefully as well. Do not pull it by the
cable or the connection between the hot stone mat terminal
and the controller plug may become loose. Aer this always rst
reconnect the controller to the mat tightly and then plug it into
an electrical outlet again. Be sure that the socket has electrical
power, this can be tested by using any other electrical device.
Reconnection and reset are the most common ways to
eliminate errors and reload the controller.
But if reconnection or any other way of troubleshooting do not
improve the situation, it likely means that there is a problem with
the controller. If your controller was not accidentally damaged or
ooded we will replace it ASAP, fast and free.

7. Do not worry if your mat or pad are not hot to touch. All FIR
Amethyst mats do not work like conventional heating pads. Most of
the energy from the hot stone mat, pad, belt or wraps in the form
of Far Infrared Rays heat, is transferred by radiation, and not by
conduction (as is the case with standard heating pads, which are
hotter to the touch but do not heat the body much). If the hot stone
mat is le uncovered, it should be slightly warm on lower levels, warm
on medium levels and very warm on high levels – but the transferred
heating energy is actually much higher, and this warmth is far more
penetrating. So the hot stone pads of any size from the small belts or
wraps up to Single or Queen mats should be used on a much lower,
more prudent temperature than a standard electrical heating device –
and it demands extra care, especially for all night use.
8. It usually takes around 30-60 minutes for the pad to
reach the maximum temperature if you put both a thick
protector and a thick blanket on top. The heating stops and
resumes again when the pad cools down, to maintain the set
temperature. During this time, the gems become very warm
and emit radiant Far Infrared rays. For extra electrical safety
the heating wires are positioned a short distance from the belt’s
edges so that the end tubes with crystals are heated indirectly
by other stones (these stones may have a lower temperature).
The surface temperature of the bare pad under the blanket, or
under your body if you are on the mat or pad, becomes hot to
the touch, especially in those areas which are covered by lm
or mesh. At maximum heat level It will reach 140-150 °F
on the surface, if measured immediately aer you stand up
or remove the thick blanket. But if you measure the bare
belt or hands wrap surface temperature in several minutes
again it will be much lower, around 110-130 °F. If the pad
with crystals is uncovered, and room temperature is low or the
air ow is strong, it will cool down very quickly. This is normal –
when preheated, the crystals transfer most of the energy in the
form of Far Infrared Rays. Hot stones radiate heat very quickly.
If you keep your mat, belt, wraps or any other hot stone pad
open without the protector pad, blanket, or your body on it, the
heat is dissipated – and though the controller may continue to
show rather high temperature inside the heating elements, the
surface will be merely warm to touch even on highest level.

TIPS: TAKING CARE OF YOUR BELT OR WRAPS
1. The belt or wraps should not be used outside if you are not sure
about weather and do not have protective clothing to secure it
from becoming wet. Wear it indoors or lay on your bed, sofa,
mattress or oor. Of course if the weather is ne, preheat the
belt or wraps for an hour and have a refreshing walk with it.
2. On sunny day you can “clean” and recharge your mat, belt
or wrap crystals. if you are sure that the rains are far away,
leave the mat or pad on the sun with crystals side upward for
a while. Ancient practitioners believed that sun beams clean
Amethysts taking away negative information accumulated
while healing and renews the crystals powers. Modern science
says that it is the UV (ultraviolet) light part of sun spectrum
that kills microbes and disinfects crystals. But anyhow it is
worth doing at least several times a year. It is wonderful to see
how amethysts and other gems really absorb a lot of energy
from sunshine and become much hotter than on the max level
of electrical heating.
3. Sometimes controllers and even devices issues happen aer
power spikes. When hurricanes or storms are approaching, if
you are not going to use your hot stone pad for a while, or if
you are leaving your home for a weekend or vacation it is better
to unplug it from the socket. The best is to keep your pad
unplugged from the power socket always while it is not in
use.
4. No need to unplug the controller connector from the pad
connection terminal frequently. If the controller always
remains connected to the pad it is OK as this only helps
prevent the connection from loosening. Just remember to
verify the tightness of the connections from time to time,
especially if you sleep on your hot stone mat. If you have to
disconnect the plug of the controller from the pad’s connection
terminal always do this carefully and with both hands. Hold the
connector with one hand while pulling the plug carefully with
the other hand. If pulled by the wire it can break, or the
connection may eventually become loose and the pad will
not work correctly.
5. Please take care of your hot stone mat, pad, belt or wrap and
it will be your friend for a long time. It is great for meditation,
sleeping, and sessions, if laying calm on it without a lot of
movement. Never apply pressure or step on it. Dogs and
especially cats adore it and can use but this should be under
your supervision. Do not allow heavy dogs to play in the same
room. Children like to jump but it may be very harmful if they
jump on the pad. There are a lot of tiny electronic parts inside
such as bimetal switches, temperature sensors, etc. Occasional
acute pressure may damage them. In order not to damage the
inner sensors and heating system electronics avoid impact,
walking, standing, training, doing any active exercise on
the pad. Do not allow any heavy or sharp objects to be put
on or fall on it. Never fold it while hot, never heat it in
folded condition.
6. Store the device in the bag provided. Consider storing the
controller and plug separately so that the sharp edge of the power
socket plug does not damage the crystals pad’s so leather or
suede. Do not store the device in a humid, dusty or oily place.
Store it in a clean ventilated storage room or closet.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
WARRANTY
You will not have to clean your mat, pad, belt, vest or wraps at all If you
cover it with our MediCrystal® Waterproof Cover, or at least a cotton or
bamboo towel all the time.
It will stay clean for a very long time unless you use it uncovered or
spill something on it.
1. Before cleaning, turn o the mat using the button on the controller
and then unplug the device from its power source.
2. Do not use chemical solvents such as benzene or thinner or
aggressive cleaning agents on the controllers and pads with crystals
because it may damage them.
3. Clean it as you would clean any leather or suede product that has
electrical parts inside. Do not wash the mat or controller with water.
Do not put them in a washing machine or dryer.
4. Do not get the mat with crystals wet. But even if occasionally you
spilled something and the mat was not covered with a waterproof
protector, do not worry, it has waterproof layers inside. Just let it
completely dry before using it again. Then test it on high heat for an
hour before laying your body on the belt or hands wrap. Remember
that ironing the device is strictly prohibited.
5. Use only a slightly wet cloth (soap water can be a good choice) to
wipe o dirt and dust. You could also use a vacuum to remove any
dust from the surface of the mat.
6. You may leave your belt or hands wrap with protectors on high heat
for 1 hour each week to completely self-clean and disinfect.
7. To fold the mat of any size including the amethyst micro-mattress
or belt attachment pad and wraps, disconnect the power plug from
the socket, then from the mat, belt or wraps. Aer this fold the mat,
belt or wraps inward. Try not to bend rm mat and belt in unusual
places. Your mat and belt will last longer the less you fold or bend
it. Wraps are more exible and withstand bending better, but extra
care is always necessary while folding it. Try to fold in the same
manner as the item was received.
All new classic mattresses, amethyst or ametyst tourmaline mats of all
sizes including chair mats and belt micro mattress pads are covered for

If your mat is rated for the North American 110-120V voltage and your controller is with the U.S. standard NEMA 5-15P (two-pole with
ground pin) plug, use it only with the step-down 220-250V to 110V voltage converter in the 220-250V 50Hz countries. The maximum
wattage of such converter should be at least 2-3 times higher than the mat’s power consumption. Do not connect the 110-120V mat
into the 220-250V outlet through an adapter. If you plug in a device that isn’t rated for the outlet’s voltage, it may be severely damaged,
and cause re risks!
