1. A therapeutic device for attachment to a human or animal body, comprising: a flexible substrate, an array of infrared-emitting ceramic elements disposed on or within the substrate, with each ceramic element including a concave surface oriented towards the human or animal body part to be treated when the device is attached to the human or animal body part to be treated, and an attachment means, the array comprising at least a first plurality of infrared-emitting ceramics element having a first specific spectral luminance covering the wavelength range of 3-7 μm and a first peak wavelength within the range of 3-7 μm, and at least a second infrared-emitting ceramic element having a second specific spectral luminance covering the wavelength range of 7-14 μm and a second peak wavelength within the range of 7-14 μm, wherein the first specific spectral luminance is different from the second specific spectral luminance, and wherein the first peak wavelength is different from the second peak wavelength.
