Abstract

Band is made of a thin internal coating water-permeable in fabric that touches skin, and an also thin external waterproof coating, adherent the first one. First coating avoids direct contact from plastic to skin and sweat condensation. Plastic coating reflects human heat and avoids dispersion. This double coating band, if worn during sleep or resting, will keep and reflect human heat to muscles, avoiding sweating and favoring loss of muscular aches and antalgic symptoms on soft body parts and articulations covered and protected by band.

Description

Description
A wearable band for loss of muscular aches and/or antalgic symptoms
Technical Field
This invention relates to a weareable band made of an internal thin coating (cotton or simi¬ lar) that touches skin, and an external waterproof plastic coating, also thin, adherent to first coating
Disclosure of invention
Cotton coating avoids direct contact from plastic to skin, and sweat condensation, plastic coating purposes to reflect the heat emanate from skin, avoiding heat dispersion This dou¬ ble coating, for its peculiar characteristic especially if worn during sleep or rest, can keep and reflect human heat to muscles, avoiding sweat and helping loss of muscular and articu¬ lation aches and antalgic symptoms on body parts covered by band (verified on several subjects troubled by these kind of problems on chest, neck and limbs) This double-covered band has another external coating and can be used with disposable arms to improve positioning on even part of body that ish to care
Brief description of drawings
Drawings alfeged show two exphficated versions of weareable band n 1 ) rectangular-sha¬ ped created for chest, lumbar and sacral zones, with an external coating, external of double coating, with disposable arms, n 2) shape for scapular and cervical zones protection
Modes of carrying out the invention
Obviously shapes, dimensions and peculiar materials can be several and different, accor¬ ding to protect different parts of human body
