Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus for the therapeutic treatment of human muscle tissues. The apparatus comprises a length of resilient banding 10 which is either provided in an endless loop, or is connectable to form a loop, for wearing over the front of both shoulders and under both arms of a user. The apparatus comprises a thermal source which allows targeted application of heat to the user's back muscles. This may be in the form of an electrically heatable fabric which is integrated within the material of the resilient banding, or a removable thermal source which may be placed in a pocket 12 or connected to the band. The material for the resilient band may be spandex. In use, the portions of the banding extending between opposing shoulders and underarms are of sufficient length to enable them to span the back of the user.
