Methods are provided for reducing body fat, volume of fat pads, and/or lipoma(s) in a subject. The methods as provided herein may include injecting a fat-sculpting liquid into a treatment region of the subject, wherein the fat-sculpting liquid has a temperature of −25° C. to 10° C. when injected and is substantially free of frozen particulates. The methods for reducing body fat in a subject may further include injecting a fat-sculpting liquid comprising saline and benzyl alcohol into a treatment region of the subject, wherein the fat-sculpting liquid has a temperature of −15° C. to 5° C. when injected and is substantially free of frozen particulates.

A system and method for providing a universal wrap that can apply a thermal pack to many different regions of a patient's body. The universal wrap is provided in a standardized form. The medical provider is provided with options to modify the standardized form in order to adapt the wrap to many different applications.

A hot air producing system produces and stores hot air, and applies the stored hot air to a human body. The system includes a heating apparatus to heat the air, a temperature setting gauge to allow a user to set a desired temperature, a pressure gauge to measure a pressure of the air in the container, a pump to pump the hot air, a fill connection, an expandable container for receiving and storing the hot air, with a valve to connect to the fill connection such that the expandable container can receive the hot air, an adjustable flow release mechanism to allow a user to adjust an amount of flow of hot air out of the expandable container, and a flexible hose connected to the adjustable flow release mechanism, with a nozzle to direct the hot air to a portion of the human body.

A heating device includes a heating unit and device electronics. The heating unit is configured to deliver heat to a user's body. The heating unit includes a substrate and a heating element supported by the substrate. The device electronics are coupled to the heating element and are configured to store a first heating profile that includes data indicating how power should be delivered to the heating element over a first period of time. The device electronics are configured to deliver power to the heating element according to the first heating profile. The device electronics are configured to wirelessly receive a second heating profile from an external computing device. The second heating profile includes data indicating how power should be delivered to the heating element over a second period of time. The device electronics are configured to deliver power to the heating element according to the second heating profile.

Disclosed is a system and method for producing and storing hot air, and for applying the stored hot air to a human body. The hot air producing system may include a heating apparatus configured to heat air to a temperature, a temperature setting gauge, a pressure gauge, a pump to pump the hot air, a fill connection, a container for receiving hot air from the heating apparatus and storing the hot air therein, the container including at least one valve to connect to the fill connection of the heating apparatus such that the container can receive the hot air from the heating apparatus, an adjustable flow release mechanism connected to an outlet of the container for receiving the hot air, and a flexible hose connected to the adjustable flow release mechanism. Embodiments of the invention can include a computer system capable of governing all the components.

The medical provider is provided with options to modify the standardized form in order to adapt the wrap to many different applications.

Disclosed is a cooling device, including a housing having a wall; a reservoir within the housing; a cooling material such as a liquid or gel in the reservoir; a pump within the housing; and a conduit passing adjacent the wall and through which the material is circulated by the pump from the reservoir back to the reservoir.

Approaches for portably and discreetly treating muscle cramping using one or more of a selectively controllable transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) unit and a heating element comprising resistive fabric. Cramping of the muscle may be detected with a surface electromyography (sEMG) unit. Artificial intelligence techniques may be applied using the sEMG signals and/or user input to identify effective treatment settings.

Described are methods for inducing browning of adipose tissue. More specifically, the present disclosure relates generally to methods for inducing browning of adipose tissue remote to the treatment location. The methods can include at least a first treatment and a second treatment, wherein the treatments comprise applying a cooling element to a local adipose tissue deposit, wherein the cooling element cools the local adipose tissue deposit to a temperature of between 0° C. to 30° C. for a period of time sufficient to induce browning of adipose tissue in one or more areas of the subject's body remote to the local adipose tissue deposit.

A freezable pet harness is an apparatus that cools down the pet's body while also comforting the pet during hot days. The apparatus may include a back-bracing pad, a neck-bracing strap, a girth-bracing band, and at least one primary gel pack. The back-bracing pad corresponds to the portion of the apparatus covering the pet's back. The neck-bracing strap secures the apparatus to the pet's neck to prevent the apparatus from getting loose. The girth-bracing band keeps the back-bracing pad positioned against the pet's back while also securing the apparatus to the pet's body. The at least one primary gel pack enables the apparatus to remain cool enough to maintain the pet's body cool when the apparatus is being worn by the pet. The at least one primary gel pack also weights down the back-bracing pad against the pet's body so that the apparatus can also serve as a gel-weighted blanket.
