A wearable cooling apparatus (2) comprising a pad (4), an inlet valve (6), a channel (8), and a thermally conductive membrane (10). The channel (8) is an open-sided recess formed in the surface of the pad (4) and the pad (4) is secured to the membrane (10) such that the open side of the channel (8) is covered by the membrane (10). The covered channel (8) forms a conduit (11) arranged between the pad (4) and the membrane (10), wherein the walls of the conduit (11) comprise the surface of the pad (4) and the surface of the membrane (10) and the inlet valve (6) is arranged in fluid communication with the conduit (11).

A mist generator improves the sterility of blowers having controlled forced air systems. In one embodiment, the mist generator has a chamber adapted to receive a disinfectant adapted for attachment to an output opening of a blower for delivery into the chamber of forced air carrying misted disinfectant. The main body also includes an output duct or aperture adapted for attachment to a second hose which, in turn, is adapted for attachment to an inlet opening of the blower for delivery of disinfectant misted air through internal components of the blower. Alternatively, there is used a disinfectant filter formed as a sterilizing grid having a screen coated with a soft porous surface material impregnated with a liquid disinfectant. The soft porous surface material releases said liquid disinfectant when forced air moves through the filter. In both embodiments, sterile water is introduced to take up residual disinfectant and the vapor captured in a dry filter or desiccant material and removed from the system. The mist generator improves the sterility of the blower to mitigate microbial contamination of forced air delivery systems.

A temperature regulating device for a user's neck includes a housing that extends about the neck and has a base portion, and first and second side portions. The side portions each have an air duct extending from an air inlet to an air outlet in communication with air inlets of an air duct within the base portion. Two thermoelectric are devices located within each of the side portions. Each thermoelectric device is in thermal connection with a cold space member at exterior sides of the side portions for contacting the lateral sides of the neck. Two fans within the base portion are configured to pull air through the side portions past the thermoelectric devices to the base portion and out through the air outlets of the base portion. Only the side portions of the housing selectively heat and cool the neck near pulse points of the neck.

One general aspect includes a system to mitigate motion sickness/emesis, the system including: a memory configured to include one or more executable instructions and a processor configured to execute the executable instructions, where the executable instructions enable the processor to: in response to an activation of a motion-equalizing device installed in an interior of a vehicle, provide electric stimulus to a vehicle occupant via the motion-equalizing device, where the electric stimulus is designed to mitigate one or more symptoms of motion sickness and/or emesis for the vehicle occupant.

A personal portable cooling system and method which includes a device which rapidly cools the joints, extremities, chest, or head of a given patient and a coolant, such as a can of compressed gas/liquid is disclosed.

A whole-body hyperthermia system for raising the body temperature of the entire body of an individual to a predetermined target temperature and for stabilizing the body temperature at the target temperature comprises an apparatus means for raising the body temperature at a rate of at least 1 C./hour, and at least a second thermal means for further adjusting the body temperature to the target temperature Tb. The second thermal means comprises a fluid circuit, which is at least partially within the individual, and a fluid, heated by a heat exchanger to a set temperature is circulated through the fluid circuit.

Systems and methods for improving or preventing a condition, such as the treatment of pain syndromes and migraine headaches are disclosed. A method for treating pain can include one or more of the steps including identifying a region of the patient comprising glabrous tissue; positioning the region of the patient comprising glabrous tissue into an enclosed chamber; adjusting the relative humidity of the enclosed chamber sufficient to create a physiologic effect. The method need not involve altering the temperature within the enclosed chamber.

Embodiments of the present application disclose a cryogenic physical therapy cabin and a cryogenic physical therapy cabin system. The cryogenic physical therapy cabin includes: a cabin body; a cabin door, which is hinged with the cabin body to form at least one sauna room; a refrigeration module, which comprises an evaporator arranged on an inner wall of the cabin body; an air outlet module, which is arranged on the cabin body and includes fan blades and a fan electrically connected to the fan blades, wherein the fan is configured to drive the fan blades to rotate to generate a circulating airflow inside the sauna room; and a main control module, which includes a controller electrically connected to the fan and the refrigeration module, wherein the controller is configured to receive a user adjustment instruction and adjust operation states of the air outlet module and the refrigeration module according to the user adjustment instruction. With the cryogenic physical therapy cabin in embodiments on the present application, the operation state can be adjusted according to the user adjustment instruction, and thereby improving the intelligence level of the cryogenic physical therapy cabin.

The embodiments of the present invention provide a method, an apparatus for controlling a cryogenic physical therapy cabin, an electronic device and a storage medium. The method comprises: acquiring physical therapy information input by a user; acquiring target feature information of a target user, and controlling a cabin door of the physical therapy cabin to be opened when it is determined that the target feature information matches pre-stored feature information; controlling the cabin door of the physical therapy cabin to be closed after determining that the user enters the physical therapy cabin; adjusting a temperature of the physical therapy cabin to reach the physical therapy temperature, and recording the physical therapy duration of the user; and after determining that the physical therapy duration of the user reaches the physical therapy duration, adjusting the temperature of the physical therapy cabin to a preset temperature, and controlling the cabin door of the physical therapy cabin to be opened. The cryogenic physical therapy cabin can be controlled based on the physical therapy information input by the user and the target feature information of the target user, so as to complete the cryogenic physical therapy process to the user. There is no need for the assistance of staff and the cryogenic physical therapy cabin can be operated by a single user, thereby better meeting the cryogenic physical therapy needs of the user.
