Abstract
Method and device to create energized polymers that can be used for pain relief, comprised of an ultrasound system that ultrasonically energize polymers that can then be used to provide an analgesic effect. Ultrasound waves are delivered to a polymer through direct contact, through a coupling medium, or without contact in order to energize the polymer. Other energies such as such as UV, microwave, laser, electricity, RF, sun, light, magnetic/electromagnetic, et can also be used to energize the polymer. The energized polymer can be immediately placed on a user to provide an analgesic effect, or the energized polymer can be placed storage material and removed at a later time to be placed on a user to provide an analgesic effect.

A method for creating ultrasound energized polymers, comprising the steps of:
- placing a single polymer article on a base surface, apart from other polymer articles;
- generating ultrasonic waves with an ultrasound apparatus having an ultrasound tip, the ultrasonic waves having an intensity configured for energizing a polymer;
- delivering the ultrasonic waves to the single polymer article by directly contacting and pressing the single polymer article against the base surface with the ultrasound tip to create an energized polymer article, the polymer article being selected from a group approved for use in a medical device by the Food and Drug Administration;
- and
- packaging the energized polymer article in a sealed packet for purposes of storage and later use.
