It's all in the science

How Does Heat Therapy Work for Insect Bites

1. What types of insect bites and stings can ThermiQ be used on?

Heat therapy involves applying a brief burst of concentrated heat (typically between 47°C and 51°C for a few seconds) directly to the site of an insect bite or sting. This method helps relieve itching, swelling, and pain by targeting the biological causes of these symptoms.

2. How does ThermiQ stop itching from insect bites?

When an insect bites or stings, it injects proteins into the skin that trigger an immune response, including the release of histamine. Heat therapy works by: •Denaturing these proteins, making them biologically inactive. • Suppressing histamine-related itch by activating heat-sensitive nerve receptors (TRPV1). • Promoting blood flow, which helps clear inflammatory substances. These effects combine to reduce itch, pain, and swelling quickly and effectively.

3. Is ThermiQ scientifically proven to relieve insect bite itching?

Yes. A large-scale clinical study involving over 12,000 treatments showed that heat therapy significantly reduced itch and pain from mosquito bites, horsefly bites, and bee/wasp stings. For example, mosquito bite itch was reduced by 57% within 1 minute and by 81% within 10 minutes. Another hospital-based study confirmed similar results, with itch scores dropping from 5.4 to 0.4 within 10 minutes.

4. How fast does ThermiQ work?

Most users experience noticeable relief within 1–2 minutes, with continued improvement over the next 5–10 minutes. In many cases, symptoms are almost completely gone within 30 minutes.

5. Does ThermiQ work on bites that are several hours old?

Yes. Clinical data shows that heat therapy is effective even when applied several hours after the bite or sting. The reduction in itch and pain was consistent regardless of how long ago the bite occurred.

6. Is ThermiQ safe for adults and children?

Yes. The devices used for heat therapy are non-invasive and meet international safety standards. In clinical trials, less than 0.13% of users reported mild side effects such as temporary redness or warmth. No serious adverse events were recorded.

TRUSTED SCIENCE BACK UP

On your keyring and powered by your phone

In a large German clinical study involving more than 1,750
participants and over 12,000 insect bite treatments, concentrated
heat therapy demonstrated significant reductions in itch and pain symptoms.

Results observed within 10 minutes of treatment:

✅ Mosquito bites: up to 81% itch relief
✅ Horsefly bites: up to 89% itch relief
✅ Bee and wasp stings: up to 64% itch relief
✅ Pain associated with bites and stings: up to 80% reduction

These outcomes were significantly better than those achieved
by participants who did not receive heat treatment.
