Abstract: A spinal traction/decompression therapy treatment can be performed using a therapeutic spa bath. The therapeutic spa bath can comprise a bathtub body having a central reservoir which can be filled with water. The bathtub body can include a floor, a backrest, a headrest, an upstanding sidewall, and a pair of leg cover shelves extending over the floor. A plurality of water jet nozzles can be mounted to the backrest, the headrest, the floor, and the leg cover shelves and a water pump can be operably coupled to the water jet nozzles by one or more conduits. In operation, the water pump provides pressurized water to the water jet nozzles for generating massaging water jets within the reservoir which provide the spa bath user with a hydromassage and gently pull the spa bath user's torso and head in opposite directions for providing a gentle spinal traction/decompression therapy treatment.

Abstract: A cooling system, such as a cooling vest, includes a cooling panel having a cooling panel body having a front wall, a rear wall, and an interior space between the front wall and the rear wall. A cooling member is positionable within the interior space of the cooling panel body, such as by being removably insertable thereinto. The cooling panel includes a conduction surface adapted to directly or indirectly contact an individual, such as a wearer, wherein the conduction surface is cooled by the cooling member in the interior space. Optionally, a fan can blow air chilled by the cooling member towards the individual so the individual can also experience convection cooling.

Abstract: A portable air cooler is provided that includes an openable top that provides access to a chest interior. The chest body also has as air inlet in the chest body through which ambient air can flow into the chest interior, an air outlet in the chest body through which air from the chest interior can flow out of the chest interior, and a fan operable to cause ambient air to flow into the chest interior through the air inlet and to cause air from the chest interior to flow out the air outlet. A chilling member is positionable in the chest interior to define an airflow pathway from the air inlet to the air outlet, wherein when the fan is operated, air is caused to flow from the air inlet through the airflow pathway to the air outlet, and wherein the chilling member comprises a heat exchange facilitating structure that chills air flowing through the airflow pathway so that the air at the air outlet is a lower temperature than the ambient air.
