ABSTRACT:
The applicator comprises a portable hand-held blower including a fan, a motor and heating wires to provide a stream of heated air out of an exhaust opening. A porous support element may cover the exhaust opening. A fabric material can be arranged to be draped about the motor housing in hooded fashion. Another fabric is arranged about the porous support element to provide a cushioned surface for engaging a body portion. This latter fabric material is impregnated with a medicant so that the heated air from the blower opens up the pores of the skin of a portion of the human body engaged by the fabric. The medicant is then easily absorbed thereby bringing relief to victims of arthritis and other aches and pains. The hood keeps the hot air generated by the blower in proximity to the body portion.
