therapeutic textiles

Therapeutic textiles are specially designed fabrics that provide health benefits beyond traditional clothing. They can incorporate features like compression, moisture-wicking, or embedded substances such as ions or antimicrobials to promote healing, reduce pain, or improve comfort. These textiles are used in medical applications, sportswear, and everyday clothing to support recovery, enhance performance, or manage conditions like skin irritations. By combining textile engineering with medical knowledge, therapeutic textiles aim to improve well-being through innovative fabric technologies.
