[0011] Furthermore, the parameters in S4 include: laser power, laser speed, focal length, drilling diameter, drilling spacing, laser wavelength, and drilling mode.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] The addition of graphene powder in this invention can evenly distribute heat to the local area, improve local blood circulation, promote muscle relaxation and pain relief, thereby effectively improving the heating effect and user experience of the massager. The addition of cotton and bamboo fibers provides excellent moisture absorption and breathability, effectively regulating the temperature and humidity of the fabric. The addition of additives effectively inhibits bacterial growth, improving the hygiene and antistatic properties of the fabric and preventing skin irritation and discomfort.
