any contact adhesive will work. apply to both sides, wait the allocated time (really do wait) then stick em together, put some weight on it just to stick it real good.

My LF luxury pads are comming apart the same after only 6 sessions.NOT HAPPY JAN....
Very easy fix,bit of glue and good as new but just a bit peed off that you pay sooo much for a good product and they fall apart.
$218 ,,you think they could spend 2cents extra per foot pad and use some good adhesive.
Anyone else had this problem???
