1. A therapeutic treatment pad comprising:
- a flexible pad member including;
(a) a flat, substantially rectangular central portion defining two elongate and substantially parallel sides extending along a direction of elongation and two ends shorter than said elongate sides and spaced in the direction of elongation of said central portion, said elongate sides being spaced in a direction transverse to said direction of elongation,(b) a concave cut-out in said central portion, said cut out extending from an intermediate portion of one of said sides towards the other of said sides,(c) flat extending portions projecting from said one of said sides adjacent each of said ends and in said direction substantially transverse to said direction of elongation of said central portion, said flat extending portions being spaced from said cut-out in said direction of elongation;

Abstract
A therapeutic pad includes a flexible member including a flat and substantially rectangular central portion defining ends spaced in the direction of elongation of the central portion and sides spaced in a direction transverse to the direction of elongation. A substantially semi-circular cut-out is provided in the central portion, the cut-out extending from an intermediate portion of one of the sides towards the other of the sides. A flat substantially rectangular extending portion projects from one side adjacent each of the ends in a direction substantially transverse to the direction of elongation of the central portion. Straps or other such means are provided for selectively connecting the opposite ends while a heating or cooling element may be positioned within the pad.
