This disclosure describes a device comprising: (a) a first component for providing a means for securing acupuncture needles that are disposed in bulk-style packaging when such bulk-style package is opened; and (b) a second component for providing a mounting and resting surface for the first component. The first component and the second component may be coupled together by a coupling mechanism disposed therebetween. The device may permit an acupuncture practitioner to remove an acupuncture needle from bulk packaging, without accidentally touching the shaft of an adjacent or another acupuncture needle contained within the same bulk packaging, or accidentally spilling needles in an open package while moving packaging around during treatment.

An acumoxa therapy device utilizes energy waves for preventing, alleviating or treating COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) coronavirus infection. In one embodiment, the device delivers energy in a non-invasive manner. In one embodiment, the device is configured to include an energy pin and one or more energy rings. In one embodiment, the device delivers sufficient energy to certain body parts such as acupoints to achieve an intervening and/or therapeutic effect. In one embodiment, the device maintains or improves general health, or alleviates or treats a subject with COVID-19 infection and one or more other conditions.

Systems and devices for pulsed heating of the ST36 acupoint and/or other acupoint(s) by noninvasive transcutaneous magnetic induction heating towards (1) ameliorating cognitive impairment arising, for example, from head-injury, stroke, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's; (2) helping to prevent neurodegenerative diseases; (3) preventing and treating age-related cognitive decline; and (4) preventing and treating depression manifesting, for example, as Major Depressive Disorder, Dysthymic Disorder, or Adjustment Disorder with Depressed Mood.

An apparatus for treating dermatological tissue, including at least two pins configured to be inserted in dermatological tissue to deliver electromagnetic energy to target dermatological tissue, and an electrical signal generator electrically coupled to the at least two pins, and creating a pulsed electrical signal across the at least two pins.

Custom shoes for preventing diabetes, preventing diabetic foot caused by diabetic complications and easing ulcer pain of diabetic necrosis which disperse plantar pressure and prevent impact are proposed. The shoes may prevent shoes from creasing and deforming by attaching a deformation prevention frame to an external side of a sole; and increase weights of shoes by manufacturing shoes, wherein columns with which springs are embedded are formed on the bottom, an insole with massaging protrusions formed on the top of columns is attached to the top of the sole, an inner sole made of shock absorption material is attached to the top of the insole, and an upper combined to a sock lining is installed to the top of the insole.

A laser acupuncture treatment apparatus includes: a laser device; a collimating mirror disposed at a light exiting end of the laser device and configured to convert laser emitted from the laser device into a parallel laser beam; a laser polarizer disposed at a light exiting end of the collimating mirror and configured to convert the parallel laser beam into a first linearly polarized laser and a second linearly polarized laser, a polarization direction of the first linearly polarized laser being different from a polarization direction of the second linearly polarized laser; and a laser combiner disposed at a light exiting end of the laser polarizer and configured to combine the first linearly polarized laser and the second linearly polarized laser.

An automatic acupuncture device includes: a case; a motor or an electromagnet; a needle driver, configured to move linearly under the force of the motor or electromagnet to drive an acupuncture needle in a needle gadget into a human body, the needle gadget comprising a needle tube and an acupuncture needle inside the needle tube; a needle gadget chamber configured to house the needle gadget; and a locking-releasing structure that is configured to lock the needle gadget so that it will not fall out of the needle gadget chamber during acupuncture treatment, and also configured to release the needle gadget from the needle gadget chamber after acupuncture treatment. A needle gadget is provided for use with the acupuncture device, so that the acupuncture needle will not be exposed in air outside the needle tube before or after acupuncture. The acupuncture process is automatic, safe, without complicated manual operation.

Embodiments of medical treatment including skin treatment using electrical energy, especially with the primary purpose for skin treatment for aesthetics are described generally herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

A method of acupuncture needle packaging includes inserting an acupuncture needle body of an acupuncture needle including an acupuncture needle handle at an upper portion thereof into an acupuncture needle tube starting from the acupuncture needle handle; disposing the acupuncture needle in the acupuncture needle tube in a state in which the upper portion of the acupuncture needle handle is exposed to an exterior of the acupuncture needle tube; ascending the upper portion of the acupuncture needle handle exposed to the exterior using a pressing jig; irradiating a laser to an area where the acupuncture needle tube and the acupuncture needle handle abut each other; and coupling the acupuncture needle handle and the acupuncture needle tube by thermally deforming the area where the acupuncture needle tube and the acupuncture needle handle abut each other with a heat generated by the laser.

The present disclosure provides a TENS electrode needle and a TENS device. The TENS electrode needle includes: a needle handle having a first electrode and a second electrode for providing pulse current signals with different polarities are arranged; and at least one first needle body and at least one second needle body. Each of the first needle body and the second needle body includes a first end and a second end. The first end of the first needle body is electrically connected to the first electrode, and the first end of the second needle body is electrically connected to the second electrode, so as to form an electrical field between the second end of the first needle body and the second end of the second needle body.
