Abstract: A medical treatment device (20) is disclosed which includes a medical treatment element (36,38) and resilient securing members (32,34) which adjust or deform to conform to the particular dimensions of that part of the patient's anatomy which is to be treated. The resilient securing members (32, 34) move or deform outwardly away from the patient (22) as the device is applied to conform to the size of the patient and ensure that the patient is centered within the treatment device. The medical treatment elements (36,38) are thus accurately positioned with respect to the patient (22). This is particularly important in treatments involving the application of magnetic fields to the patient (22). In addition, the disclosed medical device (20) is relatively comfortable and can be worn by a patient (22) for a relatively long period of time. The invention also extends to the method of applying the medical treatment device (20) to the patient (22).
