Abstract
A V-band therapeutic wrapping system including a V-wrap pad assembly with a V-wrap pad having; at least one vibrator-receiving-pocket or external Velcro attachment area with first color-coding; at least one endothermic/exothermic chemical reaction gel pack-pocket with a second color coding; a plurality of closers; at least one vibrator; at least one endothermic/exothermic chemical reaction gel pack; and at least one attaching strap. The V-wrap pad assembly is portable. The temperature and vibration treatment, as determined by a user-wearer, is provided by the V-band therapeutic wrapping system to target a core pain by enveloping selected the body surface when coupled to the user-wearer.
Claims8
An apparatus comprising
- a vibration module including:
- a housing;
- a vibration motor located centrally within the housing;
- a first battery located within the housing configured to at least partially power the vibration motor;
- and
- a first rubber pad located within the housing adjacent to the first battery, the first rubber pad configured to prevent vibrations from the vibration motor from affecting life of the first battery;
- wherein the housing includes a main body, an upper end cap, and a lower end cap;
- wherein the upper end cap fits seamlessly to an upper end of the main body;
- wherein the lower end cap fits seamlessly to a lower end of the main body;
- wherein the main body has a smooth closed curve outer periphery, comprised of a concave portion connected to a convex portion;
- wherein the convex portion is opposite the concave portion;
- wherein the upper end cap includes first and second extending arms;
- wherein the lower end cap includes third and fourth extending arms;
- wherein the first and third extending arms are located on a side of the housing and the second and fourth extending arms are located on an opposite side of the housing;
- and
- wherein the first, second, third, and fourth extending arms are configured to allow for threading of straps or bandages through the first, second, third, and fourth extending arms to be adapted to attach the housing to a specific area of a human body.
