A surgical patient interface including a base; a platform coupled to the base and including a first end and a second end, the platform configured to transition between a first position and a second position about a pivotable axis stationary relative to the base; a first abutment and a second abutment each adjustably coupled to the platform. In the first position, the platform extends between the first end and the second end in a substantially horizontal direction relative to the base, and the first abutment and the second abutment are separated by a first distance along the substantially horizontal direction. In the second position, the platform extends between the first end and the second end in a substantially vertical direction such that a torso of a patient extends in the substantially vertical direction, and the first abutment and the second abutment are separated by a second, different distance along the substantially vertical direction.

The invention relates to a chair for accommodating a person. The chair includes an upper body section having an upper body contact surface adapted or adaptable to at least parts of a front of a torso or a rear of a torso of a person placed on the chair, and a lower body section having a lower body contact surface adapted or adaptable to at least parts of at least a front of a thigh of the person, wherein the upper body section and the lower body section are arranged or arrangeable and fixable in a position relative to each other such that the upper body contact surface and the lower body contact surface cause a hyperextension posture of the hip joint of the person with a predetermined hyperextension angle. By forming the hyperextension angle of the hip on the chair, shortening of the anterior thigh and hip muscles can be counteracted. Also disclosed are a pressing device for application to the human body, which is adapted for use on a chair and which includes one or more pressure units each having at least one pressure head adapted to apply local or point pressure at a predetermined pressure location on the body of a person accommodated on the chair, and a chair having such a pressing device.

A wall-mounted back care apparatus for handsfree washing, lotion application, and scratching includes a pair of mounting brackets. Each mounting bracket has a mounting plate and a receiver coupled to the mounting plate. The mounting plate is mounted to a wall of a shower or a bathroom. A mounting rod is coupled to the pair of mounting brackets and is selectively engageable within the receiver of each mounting bracket. A backboard is coupled to the mounting rod. The backboard has a concave front face and a convex rear face. A cover is coupled to the backboard. The cover is selectively engageable with the backboard to be continuously disposed over the front face of the backboard. The cover exfoliates skin, applies soap or lotion, or scratches an itch.

A back stretcher that has a basket shaped held support and an extending foot holder. In use, the patient is placed on the table. The patient' head is placed in the head support basket. The patient's feet are secured to the foot support. Once activated, the device slowly extends the foot support outwards, which causes the patient to be stretched. This system is safer than other systems because the patient's head, although supported, is not tied to the apparatus-especially under the chin or around the patient's neck. Unlike other tables, this table is one-piece making construction simpler and less costly. Finally, inasmuch as the foot portion is the only section that is moved, the mechanism is simpler and therefore more economical.

An exercise assist tool is used together with an exercise tool used in a supine or seated state, and the exercise assist tool includes a body-axis indicator that allows a user to be conscious of a body axis. The body-axis indicator has a longitudinal direction, and is supported such that the longitudinal direction can be disposed along a craniocaudal axis of the user. The body-axis indicator is a rod member supported so as to be disposed along a craniocaudal axis of the user. The body-axis indicator includes a proximal-side indicator provided in front of a face of the user, and a distal-side indicator provided farther from the user than the proximal-side indicator. The proximal-side indicator is configured to be capable of adjusting a distance from the user.

A strength assist device includes: a base frame; a plurality of rotating bodies provided on left and right sides of the base frame, and rotatably connected to the base frame; a plurality of actuators rotatably connected to the respective rotating bodies, and forming respective restoring torques according to rotation angles with respect to the rotating bodies; and a cable connecting the rotating bodies. In particular, rotational motions of the rotating bodies with respect to the base frame are restricted against each other by a tension of the cable.

A health-regain device includes a driving portion, a health portion disposed on one side of the driving portion, and a control module communicably connected to the driving portion, wherein the control module controls the driving portion driving the health portion in rhythmic reciprocating motion.

A device for nuclear magnetic resonance therapy includes: a device configured to create an alternating magnetic field; a device configured to create a magnetic field as a sweep field running transversely to the alternating magnetic field; and a device configured to stretch a user.

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of rehabilitation medical devices, and in particular relates to a pose-adjustable rigid-flexible coupled waist rehabilitation robot. The robot comprises a fixed platform, a movable platform connected to the fixed platform, a lumbar vertebra support assembly mounted on the movable platform, and two support airbags symmetrically arranged at both sides of the lumbar vertebra support assembly. The lumbar vertebra support assembly comprises a plurality of bellow air bags arranged in parallel. By controlling the pressure in a plurality of bellow air bags arranged in parallel, the lumbar vertebra support assembly at the lumbar vertebra position can be adjusted to different curvatures to adapt to different patients, such that the lumbar vertebra support assembly can support the lumbar vertebra part of the patient in a perfectly fitting manner to guarantee the comfort in the rehabilitation training process.

An assistive stretching device worn by a user to reduce physical stress while lifting to aid another individual in stretching and method is disclosed. The device includes a belt sized to fit around the torso of the user, first and second pulleys supported on the belt, first and second wrist attachments; first and second ankle attachments; first and second cords threaded through corresponding pulleys with one end attached to corresponding ankle attachments and the opposite end attached to corresponding wrist attachments. The pulleys operate to change the direction of the lifting force, making it easier to lift and stretch the anterior aspects of the musculature of the individual rather than lifting dead weight. An attachment including a dual pulley system may replace the first and second pulleys and includes an arm supporting a pulley at each end and openings to provide leverage adjustments when attaching the arm to the belt.
