Abstract:

Developed in response to need of effective, long lasting, cooling therapy for women of menopause and for body overheating. This self-adhering cotton fabric cold strip is to be worn as a wrist band, or a ankle band. The self-adhering cotton fabric cold strip has an envelope defining a sealed cold strip volume. A cooling gelatinous material is positioned in the cold strip volume. A bandage sheet is fixed to the envelope. The bandage sheet defines a bandage adhesive for temporary adhesion of the cold strip to the skin surface of a user. The self-adhesive envelope contains a cooling gelatinous material which reduces the body temperature. The reduction of the body temperature brings relief that is convenient, portable, and lasts for hours. The cold strip is to be worn for a period of hours and is then disposed and replaced with another cold strip. The self-adhering cotton fabric cold strip will be produced with different colors of cloth. This will help the user from drawing unwanted or embarrassing attention to a therapeutic wrist or ankle band.
