Re: Dangers of Heating Pads!!! I use a special heating pad that has a built in safety feature that turns the pad off in time before it can burn you. My favorite place to sit while using it on my back is in my recliner. I lean against it but it always turns off before it gets too hot although it does get nice and warm. use a special heating pad that has a built in safety feature that turns the pad off in time before it can burn you.

1 If you are using an electric heating pad, avoid falling asleep while the pad is on. 2  If you think you might fall asleep, set an alarm clock to go off in 20 minutes. 3  Use heating pads set on low or medium, never on high.
