Our Story
Therma-Sleeve started as a result of injuries Christine had at the start of her 20s. She was consistently using the computer and as a result, developed tendonitis. She tried multiple braces to make the pain go away, and was in and out of physical therapy. During physical therapy, the one thing that always helped was heat therapy. The tendon pain in her wrist, forearms, and elbows would immediately reduce. However, doing this at home was difficult as she started her full time job early to support clients across the world and would need to be actively conducting meetings and taking notes. This made it impossible to hold a heating pad on her arms and often stressed the other arm as well. As a result, she created the first version of the Therma-Sleeve which was heating pad merged with a compression sleeve. She quickly realized that using this during her workday gave her immediate relief and allowed her to do the things she most loved doing at the end of the day. She wanted to bring this relief to others in an even more mobile way. As a result, she created the Therma-Sleeve Original. She learned to sow and sold her first few units to friends and family having similar ailments.
She now works with a manufacturer to provide multiple versions of the Therma-Sleeve to individuals with any type of muscle, joint and tendon pain in their arms, legs, shoulders and backs.
