The water-cooled sheet body 100 has a first channel layer 200 and a second channel layer 300. Liquid flows in the first channel layer 200, which is set to fit the human skin. Gas can be filled in the second channel layer 300. The water-cooled sheet body 100 has a first liquid inlet 210, a first liquid outlet 220, and an air inlet 310. The first liquid inlet 210 and the first liquid outlet 220 are both connected to the first channel layer 200, and the air inlet 310 is connected to the second channel layer 300.

[0035] Specifically, by setting up a first flow channel layer 200, which is filled with a cooling liquid, it can be used to apply ice to the human body. By filling it with a heating liquid, it can be used to apply heat to the human body. A second flow channel layer 300 is set up, which is filled with gas and expands to massage and pressurize the affected area. This allows the first flow channel layer 200 to fit more closely with the human skin, improving the physical experience.
