Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9428834A1] Therapeutic garments or devices for enclosing appropriate body parts, such as a mitten (50), a bootie (80), an elongate strip (130) and the like, are fashioned with polyorganosiloxane layers (52, 54, 82, 86) having particles dispersed therein which absorb microwave energy and emanate heat in response. The silicone rubber layers (52, 54, 82, 86) are enclosed in respective cloth covers (56, 64, 102, 104, 110) and are stitched together along their lateral margins (106, 112, 126) to form a body part enclosure. The covering elements are made of materials which are substantially non-absorptive of microwave energy.
