A brace for treating a portion of a human body, the brace including a brace body including at least one fastener adapted for fastening the brace about the portion of the human body, and an aromatherapy heat-treatment pack removably attachable to the brace body, the aromatherapy heat-treatment pack containing at least one temperature maintaining component and at least one aromatherapeutic component, wherein the aromatherapy heat-treatment pack is adapted to maintain a temperature thereof for a predetermined treatment duration.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a heat generator that contains a volatile component and in which the volatile component is stably maintained during storage, the volatile component is prevented from adhering to a heat-generating section, and it is possible to achieve an excellent warming effect during use. This heat generator comprises a heat-generating section (1), an accommodation body (2) for accommodating the heat-generating section (1), an adhesive layer (3) provided to an attachment surface side of the accommodation body (2), and a release sheet (4) provided to the attachment surface side of the adhesive layer (3). As a result of including a volatile component in the adhesive layer (3) and respectively providing gas barrier layers (211), (41) to a first packaging material (21) constituting the attachment surface side of the accommodation body (2) and to the release sheet (4), it is possible to stably maintain the volatile component within the adhesive layer (3) during storage. It is thereby possible to prevent the volatile component from adhering to the heat-generating section (1) during storage and to achieve an excellent warming effect during use.

A compaitmentalized heat transfer wrap for absorbing heat from a living body including a moisture-proof, outer envelope being sealed about a periphery thereof to form an outer boundary, the outer envelope being compartmentalized into a plurality of individual sealed pockets wherein each of the sealed pockets is isolated from each of the remaining individual sealed pockets, each of the individual sealed pockets including a formulated cooling medium encapsulated therein, the cooling medium having a combination of components including carboxymethyl cellulose in powder form, water, and a stabilizing additive for absorbing heat generated by a living body in contact with the outer envelope while the cooling medium is employed and functional at ambient temperature.

Disclosed is a portable electronic moxibustion therapy device which can be conveniently carried after being charged by a user to provide the effects of conventional moxibustion treatment anywhere and anytime, and which can maximize the effects of moxibustion treatment by directly applying heat stimulation while being near but not in direct contact with an acupuncture point to be treated and simultaneously providing an indirect thermal effect continuously to the surrounding area and the area around the acupuncture point to be treated. The portable electronic moxibustion therapy device according to the present invention comprises: an upper main body including a battery and a control circuit unit provided therein, and separate the skin from the bottom end of the funnel portion.

A brace for treating a portion of a human body, the brace including a brace body including at least one fastener adapted for fastening the brace about the portion of the human body, and an aromatherapy heat-treatment pack removably attachable to the brace body, the aromatherapy heat-treatment pack containing at least one temperature maintaining component and at least one aromatherapeutic component, wherein the aromatherapy heat-treatment pack is adapted to maintain a temperature thereof for a predetermined treatment duration.

A thermal device having a waterproof pouch including a first member having a first perimeter and an first waterproof outer surface, and, a second member having a second perimeter and a waterproof second outer surface, wherein the first and second members are partially joined about the first and second perimeter, respectively, and a cavity is formed between the first and second members, a removable insert arranged to be disposed within the cavity, wherein the insert comprises thermal material capable of being heated or cooled, and, a barrier member having an inner surface, wherein the inner surface of the barrier member is releasably secured to the first outer surface of the first member via at least one attachment means.

These therapeutic soft, pliable hot/cold rice packs, in different sizes and shapes, have adjustable elastic strips for the aid in comforting animals recovering from dental surgery and many other injured body parts. They can be frozen, cooled or heated in a microwave. The inner rice bag is hand washable, while the outer fleece covering, having hook and loop closures, can be machine washed and air dried. One or more elastic strips are pulled between silicone/rubber adjuster buttons (which slide independently of each other) and sewn into the product according to size to measure a perfect fit around the injured area.

Hook and loop material could also be sewn onto the bottom elastic strips and bottom of the outer covering for a break-away option.

A stationary massage device, system and corresponding methods are used for self-administrated or assisted soft tissue strain release (including trigger point therapy, strain-and-counterstrain therapy and neuromuscular release). The massage device comprises a body, wherein the body may include branches, each having flat surfaces, edges, ridges or corners. The surfaces, edges and ridges may be pushed along the myofilament direction of the soft tissues to produce pressing, rubbing, stretching and pulling actions on the soft tissues as stripping massages. The system can be configured to form different geometric shapes, and made of different materials of different firmness. The system can be further configured to perform unheated, or heated massages; and cooling treatments. In addition to being used alone, the system can be mounted on a piece of wall, a standing frame, furniture or a garment.

A thermal therapeutic apparatus is provided which includes a resilient shell, a thermal exchange material, and a flexible sleeve. The resilient shell includes an outer surface and inner cavity in which the thermal exchange material is disposed. The flexible sleeve at least partially covers the shell and defines a vent region which permits communication of air and through the sleeve.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a heat generator that comprises an adhesive layer containing a volatile component and in which the volatile component is maintained in a stable state during storage, the volatile component is prevented from adhering to a heat-generating section, and it is possible to achieve an excellent warming effect during use. This heat generator comprises: a heat-generating section, an accommodation body that accommodates the heat-generating section and comprises an attachment surface to which an attachment body is attached, an adhesive layer provided to the attachment surface side of the accommodation body, and a release sheet provided to the attachment surface side of the adhesive layer. As a result of including a volatile component in the adhesive layer and providing a metal foil membrane to the release sheet, it is possible to maintain the volatile component in a stable state within the adhesive layer during storage. It is thereby possible to prevent the adhesion of the volatile component to the heat-generating section during storage and to achieve an excellent warming effect during use.
