Development of conductive thread heating element on wireless heating e-textile belt for thermotherapy application

Thermotherapy is the application of heat as a relief for pain and discomfort. That is because heat stimulates the sensory receptors in an isolated section of the body decreasing the transmission of pain signals to the brain. This study presents a heating e-textile belt to provide the needed temperat...
