Hello!

We are doing preliminary work on therapeutic wearable bands for RSI
(repetitive stress injury) such as wrist injury due to excessive
typing. The therapeutic bands would fit snugly around the wrist - just
like a wrist band. The wrist bands would be at a temperature other
than body temperature. Just wanted to find out the temperature that a
human body can be in contact with without causing problems? We do know
of athletes using ice packs on sore muscles.

Similarly, how high AND how low can the temperature of this wrist band
be at - without causing any damage when in contact with the human body
for say 15 minutes or so.

I have already taken a look at webpages such as:

Thanks

This sounds like a very interesting product. There are so many carpal
tunnel problems these days that I would think you'll be quite
successful in marketing this kind of item.
