System and methods for therapy involving the use of three-dimensional articles of manufacture having printed media at predetermined locations thereon to overcome a therapeutic issue, such as (but not necessarily limited to) fear, phobias, trauma, addiction, grief, depression, feelings of loss, physical pain and diabetic neuropathy. By using the system and methods of the present invention while focusing on emotional and/or physical pain associated with a therapeutic issue, both hemispheres of the brain are activated and random stimulation via place or grid cells and their associated complex circuits occur, which collectively causes or creates new neural connections in the brain of the patient to thereby diminish or even resolve the emotional and/or physical pain associated with the therapeutic issue.

A therapeutic pillow is disclosed. The therapeutic pillow provides support to a user's head, neck, back, and spine when lying down on the pillow. The pillow includes a head support, an elongated spine support, a firm support member for supporting the elongated spine support, and a lower member for manipulating the pillow. When lying down on the pillow the force exerted onto the elongated spine support compresses the elongated spine support. This compression causes an end of the elongated spine support that is connected to the head support to bend, which in turn causes the head support to bend at an angle towards the vertical axis of the pillow. Further, when lying on the pillow the lower member protrudes through a user's legs, which enables users to grasp the lower member with their legs and perform therapeutic exercises with the pillow.

The present disclosure relates to a collapsible mobility and stretching device that allows for portability and low-profile storage. More specifically, a collapsible mobility bar may comprise a series of bars that may fit into each other when disassembled. The series of bars may be extended to provide a larger bar, such as may mimic typical barbel sizes and configurations. The collapsible mobility bar may comprise knurling that mimics the look and feel of standard barbells and dumbbells, which may allow for more realistic practice and exercise. The collapsible mobility bar may comprise mechanisms to allow for accessory attachments.

The invention relates to the technical field of exercise resistance bands, and particularly to an exercise resistance band with silicone massage dots, which enables massage at the time of fitness and is convenient to wear, and has the advantages of improving the storage effect and reducing the occupied area after storage. The exercise resistance band comprises an elastic hand, a hook-and-loop fastener and two elastic pull-up bands, wherein multiple sets of protruding silicone massage dots are adhered and fixed to an inner side of the elastic band, the hook-and-loop fastener comprises a hook and a loop, and the two elastic pull-up bands are respectively fixed on left and right sides of the elastic band.

This application discloses systems and methods of applying vibration to a targeted area on an individual that is experiencing pain, discomfort, or other musculoskeletal symptoms. Steps of the method include lengthening followed by oscillation and vibration. The lengthening step requires positioning the individual (e.g., with the help of a stretching cage) such that the individual experiences a stretching sensation in a targeted area (e.g., a group of muscles, ligaments, tendons, etc.). Next, the individual oscillates in and out of that lengthened position while vibration is applied to the targeted area. It has been discovered that these techniques can bring about dramatic and quick improvements in flexibility and range of motion, while also diminishing symptoms like pain and discomfort.

An exercise device includes a foot support portion pivotably connected to a leg support portion and having a neutral position relative to a pivot axis. The support portion is configured to rotate about the neutral pivot axis in a first direction away from the neutral position and in a second direction away from the neutral position. The second direction is opposite the first direction. The exercise device also includes a resistance mechanism configured to exert a force on the foot support portion about the pivot axis opposite to the respective first and second directions of rotation of the foot support portion about the pivot axis.

A combined exercise mat and massaging roller is an apparatus used to perform exercises, especially bodyweight floor-based exercises and mobility work. The apparatus is configured to connect and disconnect easily for conversion between an exercise surface and an acute-pressure-supplying roller device. The apparatus includes an exercise mat, a plurality of massaging protrusions, and a snapping mechanism. The exercise mat provides a clean and comfortable exercise surface for a variety of yoga or body weight exercises. The plurality of massaging protrusions relates to a set of features that extend from the exercise mat to provide stimulation to various muscle groups and tissue during rolling. The snapping mechanism is a series of interlocking fasteners that engage with each other to secure the apparatus into a rolling configuration and subsequently release to toggle back into a flat configuration. The configuration of these components allows the apparatus to provide an exercise surface and roller.
