The support band is designed to comfortably position the mask body and the plurality of therapeutic inserts retained within the mask body against the user's face. The plurality of therapeutic inserts includes several therapeutic inserts that provide various therapeutical benefits when at least one therapeutic insert is used with the mask body while the user is resting.
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR WEARABLE HEATING PACK
A device and method for a wearable heat pack is presented. The heat pack provides a therapeutic application of heat or cold to a user using phase-change material to provide a desired temperature and is made of a soft and flexible material that is comfortable and pleasant to use, but is strong enough to be reused multiple times. The heat pack device includes a sealed silicone envelope. An infill is contained in the envelope and includes a phase-change material for providing a temperature range over a period of time. The method includes heating the heat pack device, placing the heat pack device in a pocket of a garment, and placing the garment on a user to position the heat pack device in contact with the user, wherein the heat pack device includes a phase change material and further wherein the heating creates a phase-change of the phase-change material.
WOUND AND THERAPY COMPRESS AND DRESSING
A method of providing moisture therapy to a subject by applying a moist therapy compress against a treated body portion. The moist therapy compress includes a fluid-permeable shell, a flexible backing fastened to the shell to define an enclosure, and a hydrophilic zeolite fill granules loosely contained within the enclosure.
