An air pocket-type massage device is provided. The device can include: a bed unit (100) which is for supporting parts of the body of a user; a massage module (200) which is disposed on the bed unit (100) and includes a plurality of air pockets; and a position adjuster (300) which is provided on the bed unit (100) and enables changing of the position of the massage module (200).
THERAPEUTIC ANIMAL HARNESS SYSTEM AND METHODS OF USE
Systems and methods for treating and rehabilitating animals are provided. The systems and methods include harnesses and related devices, including compresses and heating/icing devices. The devices further include and comprise features to enable the device to be contoured to and secured to an animal. Animals contemplated for use with devices and methods of the present disclosure include, but are not limited to, canines and humans.
MODULAR TEMPERATURE CONTROL DEVICE AND METHOD
Described embodiments provide systems and methods for managing the temperature of an item that includes a first flap portion and a second flap portion defining between them a first pouch containing substance; a third flap portion and the second flap portion defining between them a second pouch containing substance; a first portion of a fastener attached to the front side of the first flap portion; a first complementary portion of the fastener attached to the obverse side of the second flap portion; a second complementary portion of the fastener attached to the obverse side of the third flap portion.
Simultaneous Thermal and Cooling Therapeutic Device
A therapeutic device combines both hot and cold therapy to work simultaneously together. The therapeutic device has a first portion being made of a material capable of being heated to a first temperature and a second portion having a fastener capable of connecting to a cold pack having a second temperature. The application of both hot and cold to the site of an injury of a user stimulates blood circulation to an injured muscle with heat and reduces inflammation with cold to facilitate a faster and more efficient recovery process of the afflicted area.
Modular apparatus for therapy of an animate body
A modular therapy system for treatment of at least a portion of an animate body is disclosed. The apparatus includes a first modular member and a second modular member. The first modular member comprises a heat transfer device adapted to transfer heat between the device and the portion of the animate body. The second modular member includes a pouch adapted to receive the first modular member. The second modular member can be wrapped around the animate body portion with the first modular member positioned therein. In various embodiments, the apparatus includes a third modular member having a pouch adapted to receive the first modular member. The third modular member is configured for wrapping to a different sized animate body or different portion of the body than the second modular member. The third modular member may have a different shape or size than the second modular member. In various embodiments, the second and third modular members are sleeves selected from among a plurality of differently configured sleeves. Methods of making and using the system are also disclosed.
COLD THERAPY DEVICE
The present invention is directed to a device for absorbing heat from a body. More particularly, the invention pertains to an improved device which utilizes a gel material comprising liquids and solids to absorb, over an extended period of time, heat from a body. The present invention also includes methods of providing cold therapy treatment to a user
COMPRESSIVE CRYO-HEMOSTATIC DEVICE
This is a device, belonging to the medical and hospital artifacts industry, developed to accelerate the hemostatic process for patients undergoing radial punctures, partially compressing the artery subjected to treatment; said cryo-hemostatic device is essentially presented in the form of a wristband (1), providing end bands (2) providing velcro-based closing, interconnected by an intermediate band (3) below which a first cryogenic reservoir pad is located (4), which can be filled with a saline substance by the action of a syringe connected to the first connection nipple (5) attached to the first tube (6), flanked by the second external reservoir pad (7), also provided with a second connection nipple (8), attached to the second tube (9).
Therapeutic device for heating and icing body parts
Systems and methods for treating and rehabilitating animals are provided. The systems and methods include harnesses and related devices, including compresses and heating/icing devices. The devices further include and comprise features to enable the device to be contoured to and secured to an animal. Animals contemplated for use with devices and methods of the present disclosure include, but are not limited to, canines and humans.
Weighted Blanket with Cooling Gel Filling
The current invention is a cooling gel blanket that is filled by weighted material and with materials to disperse heat. The cooling gel blanket is made by laminating a polyester or cotton fabric over a gel cooling core. The cooling gel is a water based polyurethane. The inner blanket core is a flexible cooling gel that transfers heat from the body to the room acting as a heat sink.
PORTABLE THERMAL THERAPY AND SUPPORT APPARATUS FOR EMERGENCY MEDICAL TREATMENT
A thermal therapy headgear for a patient includes a plurality of thermal reaction compartments, a liquid chamber, a gas chamber, and a gas container. The thermal reaction compartments contain a first of at least two thermal reaction components, and the liquid chamber contains the second thermal reaction component. The gas container has therein a pressurized gas and a gas valve for selectively releasing the pressurized gas into the gas chamber. The gas in the gas chamber will apply pressure to the liquid chamber and force the second thermal reaction component through the valve and into the thermal reaction compartments to react and transfer heat with the patient, and the presence of the gas within the gas chamber will cushion the patient. A method for conducting hypothermic therapy is also disclosed.
