“Being an interstate truck driver my neck, shoulders and back tends to get quite sore. I can set the Pain Pod up and use it while I'm driving. It's fantastic and best part is that it's small and compact and so easy to use out on the road.”
Hi Ken,
Thanks so much for the great review, we're so glad it's helping you and can only imagine the muscle tension and soreness you'd have from staying in the same position for many hours at a time. We do need to point out that most of our devices can cause involuntary muscle contractions so hope you are using the one that doesn't or that it isn't disrupting your driving at all.
“This product is the most Amazing product.
I have permanent nerve damage and struggle badly with pain. This product really helps me manage my server pain days”
Hi Bella, firstly thank you for taking the time to write a review and secondly we are so happy that the PainPod has been able to help you manage your nerve pain.
“Best $777 I’ve ever spent. Very quick delivery and the product is amazing. My knees are no longer aching and it’s even helping my partner carpel tunnel. Thank you Pain pod AU.”
“Received the starter kit and foot pads on 10 Jan 24. Previously when walking I suffered from pain in my foot in the ankle area which cut short my walks. Since using the pain pod twice daily, I am now capable of completing my walk. Also bought the Silicone cover to reduce the issue of breakage of the control.
I have been to podiatrists, physios and doctors, and pain killers did not help. An ankle brace was suggested, costing $400, this did not assist in anyway except to cut up my joggers.
At this point I would recommend the PainPod.”
“Have been dealing with these guys for a while now. Delivery of new pads always next day which is great. Have recommended to friends as I use as my main pain relief for my back and hips. Always willing to help out.”

“Only used a few times but excellent results so far. Only problem has been situating on lower back and knowing which button is the power but getting used to the positioning.”
Hi Jeanette,
Thank you for your review, we are so happy that only after a few uses you are happy with the results. As a solution to familiarising yourself with the location of the buttons of the PainPod Lite we do have Long Extension Wires on our website which you can plug into the PainPod as use the actual device as a remote if that makes it easier for you.
“Good afternoon,
Just wanted to alert you to a quality issue with your pads. I ordered some replacement small pads some weeks ago. Treated them exactly in the same way as always. After two days the adhesive dissolved into a liquid mess. No exposure to chemicals or excessive heat.
Disappointing and I am reluctant to spend more money on pads (which I need).”
We are very sorry to hear this and it is highly unusual.
Our customer service team will be in touch to help resolve the issue.

We have tried to assist you with your issue.
You have stated your profession in the signature of one of your emails that indicates you are a scientist, however when we politely requested an image to show that the gel pads have "dissolved into a liquid mess" so we could send evidence to our manufacturer you were not able to do this as you then stated that "it looks normal".
You then berated our customer service contact for simply asking this of you, calling this person recalcitrant and argumentative.
We will always replace pads if they are not performing as they would be expected to. We do not think it is unreasonable to request evidence in the form of a photograph if a claim of a major physical fault has been made, such as the one you have made above.
“I have purchased the Hidow many years ago. My husband and I use it all the time when needed. I have purchased one for my son & daughter who use it when needed at all times as well. It works great and releases muscle tension, pains etc. Convenient and easy to put on and take with you wherever.
I am so grateful to own one and highly recommend it to give comfort. Thank you.”
“Hi thanks for the great service and new items. The cover is great and provides protection to the unit from accidental drops.
Josh helped greatly in facilitating the repair quickly and easily then in having my pain pod unit returned to me.”
