A therapeutic wrap that can be releasably connected to a body has one or more chambers for holding one or more discrete hot or cold members. Openings into the chambers and connectors for holding the wrap to the body are provided so that the hot or cold member(s) can be accessed in the chamber(s) without substantially moving the wrap relative to the body to which it is connected.

An apparatus for applying heat or cold to a knee, comprising a container for wrapping about a knee of a leg along a direction of wrap extending medially and laterally from a central fold line of said container, which central fold line is transverse to the direction of wrap and which central fold line is adapted to overlie the patella of the knee and extend parallel to the length of the leg when said container is wrapped about the knee, wherein said container has two vertically oriented chambers defined therein on opposite sides of, and parallel to, the central fold line such that one chamber adapted to overlie the medial side of the knee and extend along a portion of the length of the led from above to below the knee and the other chamber is adapted to overlie the lateral side of the knee and extend along a portion of the length of the led from above to below the knee when said container is wrapped about the knee, said chambers further adapted to hold respective discrete temperature masses to provide heat or cold to medial and lateral portions of the knee when said container is wrapped about the knee, and wherein said container further has two elongated vertically oriented portals defined therein transverse to said direction of wrap and parallel to the central fold line so that the portals do not substantially curve along said direction of wrap, wherein each said portal is adapted to open outwardly away from the knee when said container is wrapped about knee such that each said chamber is accessible through a respective one of said portals to insert or remove the respective temperature mass without removing said container from the knee and wherein said portals are on opposite sides of, but adjacent to, the central fold line of said container.
