Abstract

The invention provides systems for topically heating or cooling an animal or human body, and more particularly concerns a modular system in which a heating or cooling liquid is circulated in a hermetically sealed flow path (6, 9, 6, 7) between a heating or cooling device (21) and a heating or cooling pad (5). In a preferred embodiment, the flow path includes a cassette which is reversibly engageable with a pump (15) and a heating or cooling unit located in a housing (1).
