MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611113248 A) filed by Chandigarh University on September 22, 2026, for Multi-Modal Therapeutic Foam Roller With Thermal And Electrical Stimulation.
Inventors include Madhura Sudhir Deshmukh; Sumedha Bhatia; and Shubhangini Sharma.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: A multi-modal therapeutic foam roller is provided for musculoskeletal therapy, combining mechanical rolling with regulated heating or cooling and TENS and/or EMS electrical stimulation. The apparatus includes a load-bearing structural core (101), rechargeable power and battery management system (102), shock-isolated electronics bay (103), thermoelectric modules (107), thermal spreader and thermal mass layer (108), thermal energy transfer network (106), active matrix electrode plane (112), and removable conductive silicone outer sleeve (113). Skin-contact impedance is monitored to selectively energize validated electrode regions, while temperature feedback regulates thermal output and motion information can adapt stimulation intensity. Moisture channels (109), protected endcaps (104), heat dissipation assemblies (105), and safety controls support controlled operation during rolling. The apparatus provides a portable platform for selective or combined thermal and electrical therapy with mechanical myofascial rolling.
