A myofascial release apparatus can include a head member and a shaft configured to couple to the head member and to releasably mount the head member to a weightlifting rack. This can be accomplished, for example, by threading the shaft of the apparatus through apertures on a support member of the weightlifting rack and placing a securing member or securing loop on the shaft to prevent the shaft from retreating through the support member during use. The apparatus can be included in a kit having one or more of the following additional components: a washer, a magnet, collars, two or more additional head members, or a handle. The head members can be any suitable shape, including a blunt nub head, a precision nub head, and/or a broad nub head.

A core exercising stool enables a user to exercise specific muscle groups by performing oscillatory motions. The stool has a seat, a collapsible frame, and a seat actuation assembly. The collapsible frame is a support structure that maintains the seat at a desired height. To accomplish this, the collapsible frame has a set of length-adjustable legs and a base support on which the legs are mounted. The length adjustable legs enable the user to adjust the modify the height of the stool as desired. The seat actuation assembly is a coupling mechanism that establishes an articulated connection between the seat and the collapsible frame. Specifically, the seat-actuation assembly is connected in between the seat and the collapsible frame. Accordingly, the user is able to move the seat through oscillating motions while performing core strength exercises.

A device and method for alleviating extremity pain and improving range of motion using a mobile mirror with functional activity attachments. Secured symmetrical functional objects for manipulation are positioned either along side, in front, or on the mirror itself. The individual looks at the reflection of the non-affected extremity manipulating the functional attachment while both extremities perform the activity. The occupational therapy device is simple to use and can relocate to either tabletop or floor. The large mirror accommodates longer arms and legs for improved visual field and can be rotated for either vertical or horizontal orientation.

An exercise device for exercising at least one of a human hand, wrist, and forearm, may include a pair of handles that rotatably mounted within sockets by exerting a force that can be adjusted. Further, levers may be pivotably mounted relative to handles to facilitate developing grip strength. Further, a vibrational force may be delivered to at least one of the handles to promote bone and muscle generation and inhibit their loss.

An exercise and rehabilitation bar that provides the user with a variety of attachments and features allowing the user to perform many exercises that focus on rotational movements that strengthen the user's torso, back, shoulders, and core without overly straining the user's hands, wrists, arms, shoulders, or other body part.

The present invention is directed to systems and methods for a portable parallel bar system. The system is easily folded as a portable configuration by resting one or more stanchions on a platform of the device. Transport mechanisms may be deployed for easier transport of the device. Cross-members may be employed to provide stability to the device when in the unfolded or in-use configuration.

A portable mirror therapy device comprises a stiff divider panel attached to a base unit which supports the divider panel in an upright position to define two adjacent limb receiving spaces at opposite sides of the divider panel. A mirror is mounted on one face of the divider panel. A clamp mounted at a lower end of the divider panel cooperates with an underside of the base unit for securing the base unit on a support such as a table or worktop. An exercise apparatus is mounted on the device and includes a limb engaging member, which in this case comprises a handle at a mirror side of the divider panel. The exercise apparatus is a resistance load training system and comprises a load cord extending from the handle to an associated resistance element mounted within a housing on an opposite side of the divider panel to the mirror.

A device for the therapeutic treatment and/or training of the lower extremities of a human has independent driven and controlled movement devices which are connected to a stationary frame. Each of the movement devices include foot plates that are moved independently of one another along walking trajectories. Each movement device has a pivot arm pivotable into different elevations where the pivot arm is rotatably connected to a single sled on a linear track. A first rotational drive is attached to the sled and is connected to the pivot arm for changing the elevation of the respective holding member. A second rotational drive changes the inclination of the foot plate and the sled is connected to a linear drive for changing the longitudinal position of the foot plate.

The present invention relates to a leg-pressurizing device attachable to and detachable from a riding apparatus of the present invention, when a user is pedaling while sitting on a saddle, a pair of calf pressing rollers constantly pressurize lower surfaces of user's calves upward and downward and forward and backward while the user's calves move upward and downward and forward and backward, and a pair of tiptoe pressing rollers constantly pressurize user's tiptoes while the user's tiptoes are rotating, so that the user's calves and tiptoes are pressurized regularly by the rotational movement of the rollers, thereby enabling smooth blood circulation of the leg and preventing various adult diseases.
