A system and method for providing massaging within a vehicle that include receiving vehicle dynamic data associated with a real-time dynamic performance of the vehicle as the vehicle is being driven for a predetermined period of time. The system and method also include determining at least one strenuous driving activity associated with a driver of the vehicle based on at least one driving maneuver. The system and method additionally include analyzing positional parameters and movement parameters that are associated with at least one area of a body of the driver that is utilized to conduct the at least one driving maneuver for the predetermined period of time. The system and method further include controlling at least one massaging element disposed within the seat of the vehicle to provide massaging to the at least one area of the body of the driver.

A method of acupuncture needle packaging includes inserting an acupuncture needle body of an acupuncture needle including an acupuncture needle handle at an upper portion thereof into an acupuncture needle tube starting from the acupuncture needle handle; disposing the acupuncture needle in the acupuncture needle tube in a state in which the upper portion of the acupuncture needle handle is exposed to an exterior of the acupuncture needle tube; ascending the upper portion of the acupuncture needle handle exposed to the exterior using a pressing jig; irradiating a laser to an area where the acupuncture needle tube and the acupuncture needle handle abut each other; and coupling the acupuncture needle handle and the acupuncture needle tube by thermally deforming the area where the acupuncture needle tube and the acupuncture needle handle abut each other with a heat generated by the laser.

A care instrument arranges a storage container and a peristaltic pump, with the storage container accommodating the care product, the peristaltic pump being configured to draw the care product from the storage container and deliver the care product to a surface of a housing. In this way, a user can apply care products while using the care instrument. By controlling the peristaltic pump by the control component, the care product is delivered to the surface of the housing in a timed and quantitative manner for precise and accurate delivery of the care product. The massaging component and the peristaltic pump can operate independently. When only the massaging component works independently, the care instrument functions in massaging, and when the massaging component and the peristaltic pump work together, the care product delivered to the surface of the housing may be further uniformly dispersed by the massaging component.

An elbow joint boost device has first and second frames to be attached to the forearm and lower arm of a patient. A guide mounted on the first frame extends generally along the respective one of the forearm and upper arm. A link is mounted on the guide for sliding movement along the guide, and a spring acts in tension between the sliding link and a point on the second frame remote from the patient's elbow. As the patient straightens and bends the elbow, the link can slide along the guide, varying the leverage of the tension spring.

This disclosure relates to device for providing continuous negative abdominal pressure (CNAP) which selectively recruits (inflates) the dorsal (spinal region) collapsed areas of the lung, while enabling the patient to remain in the supine (usual) position. The CNAP device includes a rigid frame configured to have a shape and size to envelop a patient's lower chest and abdominal area while in a supine position with the frame having opposed edges which sit on a surface on which the supine patient is resting. A pressure sensor is mounted to the frame for measuring a pressure inside the chamber and is connected to a display for displaying the pressure inside the chamber. An active pressure controller is connected to the pressure sensor, and a vacuum pump is in flow communication with inside the chamber and connected to the active pressure controller. The device includes a top up pump in flow communication with inside the chamber and connected to the active pressure controller which is programmed to instruct the vacuum pump to provide negative pressure in the chamber to start decompressing the chamber, and to instruct the top up pump to maintain the negative pressure in the chamber.

A device for spine rehabilitation comprising a support frame, immovable crossbars, movable crossbars, and a holder and systems of actuators supporting a patient's head, shoulders, hip, knees, and feet, characterised in that it is equipped with linear actuators (8) mounted to the holder (7) supporting the patient's head and shoulders, whereby the holder (7) has a driving mechanism (9) situated horizontally and mounted to an immovable crossbar (6) of the support frame (1) and in its lower part is rotationally mounted, at the rotation point (10) of the holder, to the immovable crossbar (6). A method for spine rehabilitation using the device for lateral deviation of the patient's torso, whereby the patient's body situated horizontally, face up, is lifted on eight sling hangers taking hold of his/her head and his/her back in the points of shoulder girdle and pelvis girdle.
