A massage machine includes a main body that includes a treatment portion configured to perform treatment with respect to a user; a detecting portion configured to detect a running state of a component of the main body and to obtain running state data; a storage portion configured to store the running state data; and a control unit configured to control an operation of the main body. The control unit includes: a determining portion configured to determine presence or absence of an abnormality related to the main body; and an abnormality outputting portion configured to output an information related to the abnormality and the running state data when the abnormality determining portion determines that the abnormality is present.

A exercise ball device can include a ball and one or more panels supported by the ball. The ball can be substantially rigid and the at least one panel can be soft or resiliently deformable. The exercise ball can include a belt for guiding and positioning the one or more panels on the ball.

Systems and methods for exerting forces on a body, including a support structure defining a space and a plurality of surface contacting units that are configured to exert force upon the body, such that the weight is distributed away from the primary weight bearing regions to non-weight bearing regions of the body, or vice versa, without exerting significant shear or frictional forces on surfaces of the body. The systems and methods may be used to exert forces to cause fluid shift in different compartments of the body. Applications include treatment of various disease conditions including pressure ulcers, heart failure, high blood pressure, preeclampsia, osteoporosis, injuries of spine and to slow microgravity-induced bone and muscle loss. The systems and methods may be used to simulate gravity, weightlessness or buoyancy, in rehabilitation medicine. The system may include a chair, bed, a wearable suit or an exoskeleton.

A massage device includes a massage roller that extends lengthwise along an axis from a first end to a second end, opposite said first end, a grip extending from the first end, and a flexible sling extending from the second end and swivelably mounted to the second end. The sling includes an elbow harness for receiving a user's elbow. The massage roller may be urged and rolled against the first side of a user's body by holding the grip and applying a force on the elbow harness with the elbow on the opposite side of the user's body, while the massage roller is allowed to rotate about the axis without twisting the sling.

The present invention relates to the field of family health care, in particular to a manual massager with grounding benefits. The highly portable and manual device transfers the user's body excess voltage and transfers through the wire to grounding port and thus deposited to Earth. The assembly incorporates the benefits of grounding (earthing) with the benefits of massage therapy. The manual massager has a simple structure, low manufacturing cost and controllable massaging force, and is convenient to use.

Systems, devices, and methods for relieving muscle pain that may include a massage roller; one or more arms at least partially disposed within the massage roller, wherein each arm of the one or more arms has a length greater than the diameter of the massage roller and slides freely across the diameter of the massage roller; and two or more movable protuberances, where each of the two or more movable protuberances is disposed at each end of each arm.

The compression sleeve with massage rollers is a medical device. The compression sleeve with massage rollers applies a compressive pressure to an appendage of a patient. The compression sleeve with massage rollers is a mechanical device. The compression sleeve with massage rollers generates a kneading action that massages the appendage of the patient. The compression sleeve with massage rollers comprises a compression structure, a plurality of massage mechanisms, and a control circuit. The plurality of massage mechanisms and the control circuit attach to the compression structure. The control circuit electrically connects to the plurality of massage mechanisms. The control circuit controls the operation of the plurality of massage mechanisms.

A body massage device which includes a handpiece with movable heads (2) for applying force on the body of a patient and a massage arm connected to the movable heads (2). A motor (4) mechanically coupled to the movable heads (2) for conveying motion thereto. Measurement device having a temperature sensor (8), a vertical force sensor (15), and a torque sensor (14) for measuring the resistance to rotation of the movable heads (2). An electromagnetic radiation generator (12) for generating it at a determined frequency and intensity. A power supply (11) that provides power to the electromagnetic radiation generator (12) and to the handpiece. The movable heads (2) apply electromagnetic radiation on the patient. A processing unit (13) receives measurement information and estimates the effective depth of the treatment, determining in real time if the applied force is appropriate.

Uterine massage belts and related methods are generally described. In some embodiments, a massage belt may be configured to compress a uterus between two force-applying components to induce uterine contraction and reduce the risk of postpartum hemorrhage. The belt may include at least one roller configured to push at least a portion of the uterus (e.g., the uterine fundus) in an inferior direction. The belt may be used with at least one inflatable body to push at least a portion of the uterus in a superior direction. The uterus positioned between the opposing forces may be urged to contract and increase its muscle tone to avoid severe postpartum complications. In some embodiments, the inflatable body may be part of the belt and may be positioned proximal to the pubic bone of the patient. In other embodiments, the inflatable body may be separate from the belt and positioned inside the vagina.
