A heated mask comprises a user-operated control providing a number of different parameters including temperature and duration of heat application. At least one area contains a heater element. The heated mask covers an upper portion of a face and has areas positioned to be in registration with sinuses of a user. The heating element in one form comprises a serpentine conductor having a path through each area and having a preselected resistance in each area. In another form, a plurality of separate electrodes are provided, each in one selected area. Each electrode section is separately controlled to provide a preselected level of heat. It has been found that selected temperatures for a heater provide relief for sinus congestion, and that particular combinations of relative setting of a plurality of electrodes are associated with enhanced therapeutic results.

BABY SPACE WARMER

A baby space warmer system includes a baby space warmer having a heating element and/or a power source disposed in a housing and a controller that is operable to control the heating element and/or power source. The controller may control the heating element to warm to a warming temperature, switch to maintaining a maintenance temperature, and then cease heating. The controller may control the heating element in this way using regulation of voltage and/or one or more components, such as one or more timers, thermostats, thermometers, and so on. In some implementations, a baby space warmer system may include a warming container configured to contain the baby space warmer, concentrate heat generated by the baby space warmer to speed heating of the baby space warmer to the warming temperature, retain heat generated by the baby space warmer to maintain the heating temperature and/or the maintenance temperature, and so on.
