The Therapik runs on a 9 volt battery and appears to breakdown venoms and enzymes from bites and stings. It is supposed to generate heat but my guess is it only passes electricity through the skin in the area of the bite or sting. > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Does it apply voltage to the skin or heat? Ross Craig <lagoon@...> wrote: I have one. It's sold in Canada by Lee Valley.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 It relieves the itch from insect bites using heat. You can get the same result with any very warm object eg " spoon , lighter, kettle etc. Just don't burn yourself. Therapik > Anyone ever hear of this gadget?
