ABSTRACT:
A therapeutic pad for relief of headache-associated head, temple, neck and upper back pain includes a lower portion substantially defining, in surface geometry, a rectangle having major and a minor bases and, further, having an axis of symmetry co-parallel to the minor bases. The therapeutic pad also includes an upper portion substantially defining, in surface geometry, an elongate wing-like shape having a major axis of about double the length of the major bases of the rectangle of the lower portion, and having a minor axis which is an axis of symmetry co-linear to the axis of symmetry of the lower portion. The upper portion includes elements for selectably securing to each other portions of lateral ends of the wing-like shape. The therapeutic pad also includes a connecting portion defining an isthmus between the lower and upper portions, the geometry of the connecting portion having an axis of symmetry co-linear with the axes of symmetry of the upper and lower portions, the connecting portion also having a major axis trans-verse to its axis of symmetry, said major axis having a length of about one-half of the major bases of the rectangle of the lower portion. The therapeutic pad is provided with elements for providing therapeutic inputs, which are embedded within each of the portions of the pad.
