ABSTRACT:
A flexible heat transfer device for heating or cooling a surface such as the skin has an envelope formed from two double walled sheets, Each sheet contains within the double wall a first high thermal capacity material such as a freezing gel that is flexible when frozen for good surface contact. The space between the double walls contains a second high thermal capacity material that may have different physical properties than the first material. This may be in the form of a removable pouch insert that may be heated or cooled separately. The device is more versatile in its applications and provides for more prolonged heating and cooling.
