Therapeutic garment for treatment of over-shunting headaches and method for use of same
A therapeutic garment for treatment of over-shunting headaches and method for use of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, the therapeutic garment includes a waistband and an abdominal portion that extends from the waistband to encircle the abdomen and hips from the groin to the costal margin of a person wearing the therapeutic garment. A binder portion, having open and closed positions, is coincident to the abdominal portion. In the closed position, the binder distends the epidural venous plexus of the person wearing the therapeutic garment. A closure mechanism is configured to selectively alternate the binder between the open and closed positions. The therapeutic garment may further be fashioned into a brief, a tank top, or include leg extensions.
Hernia belt
A hernia belt (500) may include a digitally knitted support belt (502) and a two-part fastening system (504,505). The two-part fastening system may include a first part (504) and a second part (505), in which the second part includes a plurality of fastener strips (508, 510, 512, 514, 516) arranged spaced apart from each other. The digitally knitted support belt may include mesh stitch layouts (518, 520, 522) for providing breathability and support.

Lower back pain treatment and spinal protection device
The present disclosure provides for a low back pain solution device design for individuals with acute or chronic lower back pain, individuals who are post-spinal surgery, or individuals who are pregnant and are experiencing low back pain or back injury. The device allows a user to continuously wear something that is both comfortable and discrete. The device accomplishes this task by flanking a user's lumbar and erector spinae muscles with soft yet firm cushions. This protects a user's lower spine processes and their peripheral nerves from be touched by any object that has the potential to compress it during sitting, sleeping or driving.
SPINAL SUPPORT DEVICE
A spinal support device comprises a biomechanically stiff trapezius grapnel adapted to extend over and engage human trapezius muscles from a dorsal position toward a ventral position, a harness coupled to the trapezius grapnel and adapted to snugly anchor onto a human torso to maintain engagement of the trapezius grapnel with the human trapezius muscles, and a penannular cervical spine support portion coupled to and supported by the trapezius grapnel. The cervical spine support portion comprises a series of biomechanically stiff vertebra supports and a series of symphyseal resistive dampers. The vertebra supports are spaced from one another by symphyseal resistive joints formed by the symphyseal resistive dampers so that the vertebra supports alternate with the symphyseal resistive joints. The vertebra supports and the symphyseal resistive joints are positioned for dorsal alignment with respective alternating human vertebrae.
ORTHOTIC DEVICE AND METHOD OF MAKING AN ORTHOTIC DEVICE
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide sportswear usable even during practice or games, having no problem of difficulty in attachment, relating to a garment, in particular, correcting the posture of the upper half body of a wearer, and particularly used when playing golf. SOLUTION: The sportswear is a stretchable garment having a face part, a back part, right and left shoulder parts, right and left sleeve parts, and a collar part, wherein an elastic string is attached to the upper part of the back part of the garment in a crossing fashion.

VENTILATED GARMENT
A ventilated garment is configured to be supported on a wearer to provide ventilation to a body part of the wearer. The garment can include an air flow guide that is defined by inner and outer panels. A blower is positioned in the air flow guide to draw air in through an intake and discharge the air through an outlet of the guide. The guide can be arranged on the garment so the intake is adjacent the base of the back of the wearer and the outlet is adjacent the neck. The garment can include a support cushion in operative alignment with the blower to cushion the body part from the blower when the blower is pressed between the body part and a support surface.
