2k Innovations Inc. is recalling 22,757 Volt Resistance Heated Therapy Foot Wraps because FDA inspections found unapproved therapy and medical claims on product information and the company website.

The agency’s classification

FDA (Devices): Class II

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 2/5 (Moderate).

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text explicitly states the issue is unapproved claims found during inspection, with no reported injuries or illnesses. This aligns with the 'Moderate' criteria for minor labeling or compliance errors without reported harm.
