A beauty instrument capable of imparting a massaging effect to skin. A beauty instrument is configured such that a pair of balls is supported at the tip of a handle. The balls are positioned at a distance from each another, and are capable of rotating around respective axes thereof.

A device for treating conditions associated with sebum production includes an end effector configured to apply a cycling mechanical strain, to an area of the scalp, of a character and for a duration sufficient to displace sebum.

A massaging device includes two caps, and a number of beams disposed between the caps and secured to the caps, and the beams each include a number of massaging projections for massaging purposes. A housing is slidably disposed between the caps and movable between the caps, the housing includes a number of massaging members. The housing includes a number of slots for slidably engaging with the beams respectively. The housing includes a chamber, and the caps each include a tubular element extended and engaged into the chamber of the housing. The housing includes a cavity formed in each of two end portions of the housing, and the caps each include a catch for engaging with the cavity of the housing.

A primary object of the present invention is to provide a control method for a massage machine and a massage element of a massage machine which can provide pressing and rubbing kneading to a person to be treated.

A control method for a massage machine contains a controlling process for individually controlling operations of a kneading motor 331 for operating a pair of massage elements 321, 322, width adjustment motors 341, 342 for adjusting a width between the pair of massage elements 321, 322, a strength-and-weakness motor 351 for adjusting strength of the pair of massage elements 321, 322 and an up-and-down motor 361 for adjusting movement of the pair of massage elements 321, 322 in an up-and-down direction.

A therapeutic mat is described. The mat provides therapeutic relief in the form of vibratory motion and/or heat. The mat or pad is particularly useful as a floor mat in a vehicle. The mat includes provisions to enable powering the mat from a 12-volt direct current source, such as used in an automobile or other vehicle. A massage module can be removed from the mat to facilitate cleaning of the mat. The mat may also include one or more upwardly extending provisions for massaging the arch region of a user's feet. Also described are illuminated mats. The lights of a mat can operate based upon the operation of another mat, pulsations of the massage module, or based upon acoustic levels in the vehicle.

A massaging apparatus has two massaging systems arranged proximate to each other for performing more elaborate massage on target body areas. The massaging apparatus includes a first massaging member pair for massaging target areas; a second massaging member pair, provided independently of the first massaging member pair, for massaging target areas; a rotation shaft rotatably driven; a paired first conversion mechanisms, each disposed on a corresponding one of the first massaging members, for converting rotation of the rotation shaft into mutually approaching and separating movements of the first massaging members; and a second conversion mechanism for converting rotation of the rotation shaft into mutually approaching and separating movements of the paired second massaging members. The second massaging member pair is disposed between the paired first massaging members, and the second conversion mechanism is disposed between the paired first conversion mechanisms.

A system and method for treating tissue of a biological subject, including a radio frequency wave generator configured for generating a radio frequency wave at a therapeutically beneficial wavelength, a power supply configured for supplying power to the generator for generation of the wave, a controller configured for setting the wavelength, and a director configured for directing the wave to the tissue to achieve a therapeutically beneficial outcome for the subject. Preferably, the wave generates heat at a therapeutically beneficial temperature. Preferably, the director is configured for directing the wave to the tissue by placement of the director adjacent the tissue and movement of the director across the tissue in alternating general directions applied at various therapeutically beneficial speeds, various therapeutically beneficial distances, and various therapeutically beneficial time intervals within a desired treatment area of the tissue.

The present disclosure provides a compression stocking that comprises a tubular fabric body and a piezoelectric material that is incorporated into the tubular fabric body. The piezoelectric material changes shape in response to actuation energy to generate a compressive force. When the compression stocking is placed on a user's leg, the compressive force may compress blood vessels in the user's leg to assist with the return of venous blood.

A massage device includes a base, a drive unit, and a transmission unit. The drive unit is coupled to the base. The transmission unit is disposed at one side of the base. The drive unit includes a drive member to drive a rotary shaft for driving massage members. One end of the rotary shaft is provided with a unidirectional bearing and a first bevel gear. The unidirectional bearing is able to control the rotation of the first bevel gear. The transmission unit includes two positioning blocks and a worm shaft connected between the two positioning blocks. The worm shaft is provided with a second bevel gear and a movable member thereon. The first bevel gear meshes with the second bevel gear. When the first bevel gear is rotated, the second bevel gear is driven to link other parts so that the drive unit can slide on the base.
