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 therapy wrap for treatment of at least a portion of an animate body having improved kink resistance. The therapy wrap may be selectively reinforced for improved kink resistance in only a portion of the wrap. The reinforcement may decrease the kink radius. The wrap may include a kink reducer in all or only a selected kink-prone region. The kink reducer may be selectively configured attachment points or spot welds. The therapy wrap may include a reinforcement layer of one or more discrete reinforcement members. The wrap may be formed by pre-tensioning the material layers while forming the fluid bladder and/or gas pressure bladder. The therapy wrap may be adapted to compensate for conditions that normally cause kinking of the wrap or buckling of the fluidic channels. Also disclosed are methods of manufacturing the wrap and methods of administering a temperature-controlled treatment to an anatomical body part.

Thermal management devices and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a representative device can comprise (i) thermoelectric components (TECs) each including a first side configured to be operated at a desired temperature and a second side opposite the first side, and (ii) a heat transfer system including an array of fluid distribution networks, an inlet passage coupled to the fluid distribution networks, and an outlet passage coupled to the fluid distribution networks. In operation, a working fluid flows through the fluid distribution networks from the inlet passage to the outlet passage, and absorbs heat from the fluid distribution networks. The inlet and outlet passages can be fluidically coupled to individual fluid distribution networks such that pressure drop and/or temperature drop of the working fluid across the individual fluid distribution networks is about the same as one another.

Presented is a belly wrap wearable by a postpartum woman The belly wrap includes a wrap body having a first side, and a second side. The wrap body includes a back support section with a pocket disposed thereof, a first side section, and a second side section attached on either side of the back support section, and an abdomen support section attached to one side of the second side section. The abdomen support section includes a pocket configured on the first side of the wrap body, and a first matting means configured on the second side of the wrap body. The first side section further includes finger-like projections extending therefrom. The finger-like projections include a head incorporating a second mating means. The second mating means removably engages with the first mating means to ensure the belly wrap is wrapped around the abdomen and back of the woman.

A shoulder brace includes a base layer having a first side and a second side, a side support coupled to the first side, and a sling attached to the side support and having a sling strap. A counterforce strap has a first end coupled to the second side of the base layer, and a second end attached to a portion of the sling strap. So configured, the counterforce strap applies a force to the sling strap in a direction toward the second side of the base layer to relieve pressure on a user's neck during use. In addition, a cold therapy device assembly is coupled to the shoulder brace and includes a cold therapy device having first and second portions and at least one connecting member attached to one of the first and second portions and configured to be attached to a portion of the shoulder brace.

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.

A rejuvenating beauty care tool for skin and body is an apparatus that enables the user to treat different skin and body areas using different therapeutic and cosmetic techniques. The apparatus may include a handle, a first arm, a second arm, a plurality of first rollers, and a plurality of second rollers. The handle enables the user to comfortably operate the apparatus using only one hand. The handle also supports the first arm and the second arm when the first arm and the second arm are pressed against the user's body. The first arm presses the plurality of first rollers against a first target body area. Likewise, the second arm presses the plurality of second rollers against a second target body area. Further, both the plurality of first rollers and the plurality of second rollers enable the application of the desired cosmetic or therapeutic treatment onto the target body areas.

A therapeutic device for applying vibration, thermal and compressive therapy is disclosed. According to one embodiment, the device has a top layer and a bottom layer adapted to contact a body surface of a user. The device further includes a therapeutic element disposed between the top layer and the bottom layer, the therapeutic element including a vibration component, a thermal component, and a compression component, where, upon activation of the therapeutic element: (i) the vibration component applies a vibration force, (ii) the thermal component applies a thermal therapy, and (iii) the compression component applies a compressive force.

A wearable temperature control assembly includes a temperature control module comprising a contact and a thermal element configured to heat or cool the contact. The assembly also includes a primary strap configured to receive the temperature control module and secure the contact against a subject. The assembly also includes a secondary strap configured to be connected to the primary strap. The secondary strap is configured to provide adjustment of a pressure between the contact and the subject when the primary strap secures the contact to the subject.
