A massage device generally includes a massage stick, an accessory kit, and a rack. The massage stick includes a rod, two handle tubes, two massage tubes, eight bearings, two first sleeves, two second sleeves, three separation rings, and two nuts. The accessory kit includes two massage cylinders and a plurality of bushings including at least one double-taper bushing and at least two single-taper bushings, so that the massage stick can be detachably mounted with the massage cylinders through the bushings. The rack includes two lateral supports each defining a plurality of recesses positioned at different heights, so that the massage stick can be installed horizontally on the rack. With the massage stick, the rack, and the accessory kit, the massage device can be operated in various ways.

A massage guiding device and a massage guiding method are provided. The massage guiding device includes: a main body (1); and an image recognition unit (2) and a projection unit (3) which are disposed on the main body (1). The image recognition unit (2) is configured to obtain an image of a person being massaged and determine massage information based on the image of the person being massaged. The projection unit (3) is configured to emit visible light according to the massage information as determined by the image recognition unit (2) so as to display the massage information on a body of the person being massaged. The massage guiding device is applicable in a massage process to solve the problems that unprofessional massagers cannot achieve desired massage effect due to lacking of massage information or due to incorrect massage information.

An objective of the present invention is to provide users a face cradle that form-fits to the unique contours of a user's face, as the user suspends their face within the elastic woven components of the face cradle. Accordingly, the present invention provides an apparatus comprising of a structure that holds a webbed elastic face rest. Preferably, the present invention comprises an arch shaped webbing formed over a rigid structure. According to a preferred embodiment, the present invention is shaped similar to that of a vortex or torus that can stretch, and form fit to the user's head/face with no pressure points. Furthermore, the present invention may exist as a standalone structure, or a removable attachment to a previously existing structure for attaching to a treatment table.

A palm wrap device to assist with deep tissue massages provides tension relief by serving as an alternative to using the thumb and is easy to use and remove. The device contains a top surface; a bottom surface; a broad end; a first protruding end; a second protruding end; a first fastener, second fastener, third fastener, and fourth fastener; a palm pocket; one or more palm wedges; and an optional wrist support band.

An expert system facilitates non-surgical manual semi-occlusion method for treating Reperfusion Injury (RI). This technique involves a four phase framework: (1) palpating a soft tissue structure or segment of the body in order to bring blood flow to the areacalled the Touch; (2) placing a contact point at the nearest proximal vascular branch that supplies the specific target structure and creating manual tension at a vector running 90 to the elongate axis of the artery to act as a manual tourniquetcalled the Activation; (3) maintaining the vector of tension until a pulse is felt under the contact point and then waiting for the pulse to adequately diminishherein called the Pulse; and (4) applying a stretch on the nerve that supplies the Structure or Segment, both locally and centrally, in order to occlude the blood supply to the nerve for 30 secondscalled the Neurovascular Stretch.

A therapeutic flotation device and a therapeutic method of use thereof is disclosed. The device includes a plurality of buoyant float elements and a member (an elongated web strap) that couples each of the buoyant float elements such that the buoyant float elements are serially aligned along the member. A first end of the member is secured to a second end of the member. A mating mechanism, such as a buckle, secures the first end of the member to the second end of the member, or the two ends of the member may be permanently secured to each other using an adhesive or by being sewn together. Each of the buoyant float elements has a center aperture aligned along the center of a cross-section thereof. The member is preferably coupled to each of the buoyant float elements by being sequentially passed through the center apertures of each buoyant float element.

A foot-based massage apparatus includes a base member having a first end portion and a second end portion opposite the first end portion. A top surface of the base member has a generally rectangular configuration. A first connector member is coupled to the first end portion, and a second connector member is coupled to the second end portion. A flexible member is coupled to the first connector member and the second connector member. When tension is applied to the flexible member, the flexible member supports a massage practitioner providing a foot-based massage. A first gripping member and a second gripping member are coupled to the base member. The first gripping member and the second gripping member restrict movement of the base member relative to a supporting surface.
