A membrane is coupled to the skin of a human being, there being a gel layer provided between the membrane and the skin, the apparatus comprises a wiping structure movably mounted in a frame, one side of the membrane facing away from the skin and locally and progressively the membrane is forced against the gel layer and the skin so that progressively air bubbles in the gel layer are driven out of that layer and the layer is interposed bubblefree between the skin and the membrane. The wiper may swivel or roll; there may be plural wiper blades.

Coupling a membrane to the skin of a human being

The body of a patient is gaplessly coupled to the membrane of therapeutic equipment through a gel layer; a gel releasing bag is placed upon the membrane and the membrane is moved towards the body; subsequently, the bag is removed from the gap that forms between the skin of the patient and the membrane whereby gel emerges from one or several openings, filling the gap completely with gel as the bag is squeezed and removed.
