Waterproof personal thermoregulation system for the active individual

Disclosed are thermoregulatory systems. In particular, thermoregulatory devices are incorporated into garments for warming and cooling a user's body. Thermoregulatory devices are waterproof and breathable, which allow thermogenerators such as hot packs and cold packs, to remain dry while still allowing air flow such that thermogenerators using air-activated chemical reactants remain active. Thermoregulatory devices are particularly useful with garments maintaining the thermogenerators close to the body's core where they will be most effective. The thermoregulation systems advantageously allow a user to selectively position thermoregulatory devices in different regions of the user's body to self-regulate core body temperature.

20220023652 · 2022-01-27 ·

A method of treating tissue of a patient uses a device including a mother case, a belt, at least one treatment unit and at least two applicators. The treatment method may include attaching first and second applicators to the belt at a working distance to the patient's surface, and providing different treatment energy to the first applicator and the second applicator. A treatment pattern is created by the applicators providing the different treatment energies. The hardware pattern or positions of the applicators on the belt may be changed before and/or during the treatment. The hardware pattern may be based on selected treatment effect and body part.

THERAPY SYSTEM

A non-invasive, non-surgical, medication free therapy system for application to a targeted body location is provided. The therapy system includes a pouch having a first side and a second side. The first side is configured for contact with the targeted body location. Each of the first and second sides has an inner surface. The inner surfaces of the first and second sides define an internal cavity. A cold temperature source is contained within the internal cavity and is in direct contact with the inner surfaces of the first and second sides. One or more attachment straps are configured for attachment to the second side of the pouch and further configured to position the therapy system adjacent to the targeted body location. The one or more attachment straps still further configured for repeatable and removable attachment to the pouch.
