FLEXIBLE VIBRATION MODULE FOR SNAP IN ATTACHMENT TO A GROMMET EMBEDDED IN A COMPRESSION WRAP
A flexible vibrating module with flexible radiating arms outwardly projecting around the module, with each arm having an associated coin motor which can optionally be operated at high frequency or low frequency or pulsing frequency, is shown in combination with a wrap having a snap in flexible grommet for the module to consistently orient properly the module with respect to a patient's muscles or joints.
METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A MASSAGE DEVICE AND MASSAGE SYSTEM INCORPORATING SUCH A DEVICE
This method makes it possible to control a massage device comprising a plurality of localised tactile elements. It comprises:a step (E10) of obtaining a first audio stream (FA1);a step (E50) of obtaining tactile signals (ST) from at least one characteristic extracted from the content of said first audio stream (FA1); each of said tactile signals (ST) being sent (E60) to one of said tactile elements (11) depending on the location of same in order to activate said tactile element for a time period and at an intensity according to said tactile signal, the tactile signals (ST) being obtained in such a way that the tactile elements (11) are activated from one to the next so as to create a massage wave propagating in the massage device.
Device for treating skin
The present application relates to a device for treating skin (1) comprising a housing (2), a shaft (14) located in the housing (2) having a longitudinal axis (A) and an end for receiving a skin treating part (3). The device (1) further comprises a drive means configured to cause the shaft to rotate about its longitudinal axis, and to oscillate in a direction along the longitudinal axis, wherein the drive means comprise a rotational drive unit for rotating the shaft (14) and an oscillation generator (26) for oscillating the shaft. The oscillation generator (26) is located about the shaft (14) such that the shaft is rotatable relative to the oscillation generator. Furthermore, the oscillation generator (26) comprises a solenoid (39) and a flux assembly (25), and the flux assembly (25) is moveable along the shaft (14) relative to the solenoid (39).
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REGULATION OF ONE OR MORE EPIDERMAL PROTEINS
The disclosed embodiments provide skin stimulating devices and methods that address the aging effects of skin at a protein level. Particularly, cyclical mechanical strain is used to regulate specific proteins within the skin, so as to produce specific effects. As a non-limiting example, the disclosed embodiments can be used to increase the production of certain proteins (e.g., hyaluronan synthase 3 (HAS3); fibronectin; tropoelastin; procoll1; integrin, etc.) in the skin, which results in anti-aging effects by increasing epidermal cohesion.
DEVICES FOR GASTROINTESTINAL STIMULATION AND USES THEREOF
A gastrointestinal stimulation devices including a random stimulation delivery mechanism(s), configured to provide stimuli to a bodily tissue in a vicinity of the stimulation capsule, the provided random stimuli being characterized by a stimulation parameter, and a control circuitry in communication with said physical stimulation delivery mechanism, and configured to set and alter the stimulation parameter non-systematically, thereby altering the characterization of the stimuli provided to the bodily tissue. The algorithm may be patient tailored, and may have a learning machinery which responds to data being received from the patient.
SKIN TREATMENT DEVICE
Disclosed is a skin treatment device including a treatment unit inserted into skin to stimulate the skin, a holder unit for detachably mounting the treatment unit thereonto to transfer a signal to the treatment unit, and a handpiece unit for mounting the holder unit thereonto to supply the signal to the holder unit, thereby rapidly exchanging the treatment unit.
