Just received this hand massager - trying to use it but cannot get the heat to work. Is there a secret to this?

There is no heat. It is a bogus scam. Aside from a tiny bit of stimulation it is a useless rip off. Return it now. I waited too long and ended up giving it to some kids to play with

There is a button that you push for heat after you turn it on; on ours it is the third button and you can select two settings for heat

On ours, pressing the button with the thermometer makes waves - either 1 or 3 waves - on the hand image. We dont really feel heat. As the Breo netsite says "the heat is very low and may not be felt by some users" ( paraphrased) The indicator shows that heat is on but we cannot detect any heat.

I can barely feel a little heat in the palm of my hand with this massager. They advertise heated massager but it really isn't. I would not buy this massager if I had known this.

There really is no heating from this unit.That part of a feature of the unit is a misnomer. M

Not easily. I usually 'catch' the lip of the ring with pongs of a fork and try to maneuver it, or just get some warm fingers. its a bit tricky. there might be a better option/tool but I havent figured it out yet.

There is no dial on this to turn up the heat. The new body shaped heating pad has a unique design which conforms to your body. It provides CONSISTANT, therapeutic heat where you need it most. MINE NEVER GETS HOT ENOUGH TO BURN ME.

On the low setting, and perhaps using the infrared side on medium. The single massage point is very strong and works better on large muscles like hips and thighs. I find using the infrared side works OK for smaller areas. You might want to try a different massager.

No there is no heat. It mimics the motions that massage therapists learn in massage school.The nice thing about the Kneading Massager is that you have total control over the intensity of the massage.All About Health Network Professional Massage Therapist

Sure can, actually I don't use the massage feature at all. Kind of annoying to me, especially when driving. I use the heat feature all the time,

Sorry can't help u, mine never worked. When I tried to return it the company refunded my money and told me to keep it as a souvenir. I don't believe u need to use any gel as mine didn't come with any and should feel similar to a cat licking u.

Yes, i will post a link, but if it doesn't show up, go to you tube, and put kneading massager in the search bar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5luRTIzKLbw

Make sure you hold it down for a minute before you release it, so it will heat up the element. If that isn't it, I have no idea. May be defective.

I use my fingers. Clean them first, and try to rub hard enough that you generate a little heat.

Try keeping it in the frig. Not only should it remain thick, but the coolness feels refreshing. If that doesn't work I would return it. I've had the same problem with hand cream left in the car, and it worked for me. Good luck

Give it some time to warm up and then put your hand over the top. You will feel the heat. I didn't believe it either, but it's been working for months now. I still check it every time I open the safe.

Just vibration + heat - various levels of both vibration & heat - Have had several types of foot massagers and this is the best we have had. Had a reflexology one just prior to this one and was one of the worst we have ever had - - plain discomfort ! ! Hope this answers your ? ?

You can use the heat and massager together or separately. Both have seperate switches on the control pad, also they both have two different levels low to high.

There is nothing for the unit to heat up if the wand is not connected. If the wand is disconnected there is no power going to it, which results in No increasing temperature. Hope this helps

Make sure your bedsread is heavy enough to hold the heat. also if you are not in the bed and put your hand on it it won't seem warm. Mine was warm enough but the controller kept blinking and shutting of the heat. I replaced it with a Biddeford which doesn't seem very warm. Oh well.

Like most every other kind of pump, it needs to be "primed". I got mine to work by repeatedly and briskly pressing it down. It may also help to prime it with a lower viscosity fluid like water first, then refill with the thicker lotion or soap product.
