Abstract :
The possibility to use miniature one-stage thermoelectric unit as the source for contrast thermal effect on biologically active points and areas is considered. It is shown that use of thermoelectric unit satisfy the requirements of reflexotherapy for penetration depth of heat into BT, as far as the locality is concerned the unit can be used only for treatment of biological areas.
