A somatosensation and proprioceptor stimulation surface configured to stimulate rapid-firing nerves in the receptive field of a user's glabrous skin. The somatorsensation and proprioceptor stimulation surface includes a plurality of protuberances disposed thereupon, each protuberance sized and spaced apart appropriately to impress the receptive field when pressed in contact with the glabrous skin of the user. Each protuberance widens from an apex toward a base whereby increased pressure applied to the surface increases an area of contact and stimulation by applying stimulation over a larger area of skin. The protuberances are spaced apart to maximize stimulation of rapid firing nerves while lessening overstimulation. The somatosensation and proprioceptor stimulation surface is rendered in the form of a mat or floor covering and alternatively as an insole for wear in a user's shoes.

A health care device includes a health care body for positioning a body part of a user, so as to maintain a first specific positional relationship with the body part, wherein the body part has an acupoint; an acupoint work piece for performing a health care work onto the use through the acupoint; and a work piece holder having a first end connected to the health care body and a second end for fixing the acupoint work piece, so that under the first specific positional relationship, the acupoint work piece performs the health care work under the condition that the acupoint work piece has a second specific positional relationship with the acupoint. A health care body, method and system are also provided.

Proposed is a medical needle which performs treatment by stimulating acupuncture point of a human body, the medical needle including an electrical stimulation output module which generates a first signal which is an electromagnetic wave, an optical stimulation output module which generates a second signal which is a laser, and a probe needle which is inserted into a skin tissue of a human body to stimulate acupuncture point of the human body and receives the first signal generated from the electrical stimulation output module and the second signal generated from the optical stimulation output module so as to provide the first signal and the second signal to the skin tissue.

The disclosure provides an ultrasonic wave acupuncture device, including an ultrasonic source, a liquid lens, an ultrasonic-source controller, a liquid-lens controller, and a power supply. The ultrasonic source is adapted to generate ultrasonic waves. The liquid lens is adapted to focus the ultrasonic waves. The ultrasonic-source controller is electrically connected to the ultrasonic source and generates ultrasonic-source voltage pulses to control the frequency, amplitude, and pulse length of the ultrasonic waves generated by the ultrasonic source. The liquid-lens controller is electrically connected to the liquid lens and generates liquid-lens voltage pulses to control the focal length of the liquid lens to focus the ultrasonic waves on a specific location. The power supply is electrically connected to the ultrasonic-source controller and the liquid-lens controller, so as to provide voltage to the ultrasonic-source controller to control the ultrasonic source, and to provide voltage to the liquid-lens controller to control the liquid lens. The ultrasonic-source voltage pulses generated by the ultrasonic-source controller and the liquid-lens voltage pulses generated by the liquid-lens controller are aligned with each other.

A device, system and method for increasing air intake by a subject is described. The device includes a vibration motor and a control unit for controlling vibrational motion output by the vibration motor. The methods include positioning the vibration motor on one or more limbs of a subject, and stimulating nerves in the limbs via the generated vibrational motion, whereby the stimulated nerve signals the brain to increase breathing rate or air intake by the subject. Accordingly, embodiments of the device activate nerve fibers that carry kinesthetic cues from the limbs in a pattern that simulates normal limb motion, and thus triggers inherent reflexes that increase ventilation in response to such motion.

A hearing training device, is provided, including: a wearable device configured for being worn on the head of a user; a playing device arranged on the wearable device; an acupoint stimulation device, served as a physiotherapy device, comprising a plurality of acupoint stimulation mediums arranged on the wearable device, respectively configured for stimulating a plurality of acupoints on the head of the user and related to hearing, and arranged at the positions of the wearable device corresponding to the acupoints respectively; and a control device being in signal connection with the playing device and storing at least one music file, wherein the control device controls the playing device to play the music file, a beat is formed in an audio track of the music file, and the beat decreases with time, and is fixed until the beat is between 10 Hz and 15 Hz.
