  • Patent number: 5956963
    Abstract: The invention offers relief for hot flash symptoms of menopause and body overheating by providing a wrist cooler. The cooler preferably includes chemical cooling pellets that remain in a solid state until broken. A woman experiencing symptoms such as menopausal hot flashes carries the cooler in her purse. When hot flashes occur, the cooler is removed from her purse, the pellets are broken and the cooler is slid onto her wrist. Once the flashes have subsided, the cooler is discarded. The invention is easily transportable and provides for immediate relief, as there are no reusable cooling elements to be frozen or chilled.
