A lift system has a back panel and a seat panel to provide a seat. The back panel is slidably mounted on a support column via slider so that the back panel can be moved up and down to adjust the seat height. The seat panel can be flipped back when the back panel is in an upright position. The back panel, together with the support column, can be oriented in a horizontal position and the seat panel can be adjusted similarly. With the support column, the lift system can be attached to a wheeled frame for mobility, but it can also be attached to a pole, a rotatable arm, a wall or a ceiling.

An acupressure headband apparatus for helping people sleep includes a headband having a band front side, a band back side, a band left edge, a band right edge, an open band top edge, and a band bottom edge. A strap is coupled to the band right edge. A pair of engagement members is coupled to the headband and the strap. The pair of engagement members is selectively engageable to secure the headband around a user's head. An insert is selectively positioned within the headband through the band top edge between the band front side and the band back side. The insert has an insert front side and an insert back side. A pair of temple pads is coupled to the insert. Each temple pad is coupled to the insert back side and aligns with the user's temples while the headband is worn.

A finger-splinting sheath device is provided for use as a self-treatment aid in assisting a bowel in a patient suffering from complications of pelvic organ prolapse, namely rectocele. The finger-splinting sheath device generally includes a monolithic molded body including a flange-element, and a sheath-element having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the sheath-element is coupled to the flange-element at the proximal end and is closed at the distal end. The sheath-element generally includes an elliptical cross-section configured to receive two-fingers therein, wherein the sheath-element functions to splint the two fingers during use. A method for using the device includes inserting the device with two fingers within the sheath-element into the vagina and applying pressure to the vaginal walls to assist a bowel movement.

A device and method for assisting persons in achieving erection-optional orgasm, the device comprising an articulating base component which acts as a riser, a penetration component attached to the base component, shaft, tip, depth control means for controlling the depth of the penetration, and method for using the device.

A walker that includes a handle, first frame having first and second legs, a second frame having first and second legs, one or more support bars, and a foldable or stowable foot rest, in which the folding action of the foot rest is actuated via the handle.

An ankle exoskeleton device is provided having a lower leg anchor, a foot/ankle anchor, a first actuator and a second actuator. The first actuator includes an upper end disposed at a first anchor point on the right side of the foot/ankle anchor and a lower end disposed at a second anchor point on the right side of the lower leg anchor. The first actuator includes a first biasing mean having a neutral position when the ankle is in a neutral position. The first biasing means provides for compression loading due to ground reaction forces on the foot/ankle anchor to provide a cushioning effect on the ankle as the being takes a step. The second actuator provides for substantially the same elements on the left side of the foot/ankle anchor and the lower leg anchor.

A walking assist device includes a pair of link members rotatably connected to each other at an output shaft situated at a location corresponding to a knee of a user, one link member being fixed to a thigh side of the user, and another link member being fixed to a lower leg side of the user, a rotary damper that generates a resistance force that is conveyed to the output shaft and that acts against rotation of the link members around the output shaft, a one-way gear that limits the resistance force generated by the rotary damper to one of directions of the rotation of the link members around the output shaft, and a clutch that switches between conveyance and non-conveyance of the resistance force from the rotary damper.

A massage tool includes a spherically-shaped muscle ball element, a cylindrical central handle element, a discoid-shaped skin brace element, and a pin-pointer element. The massage tool allows for both general and targeted massage of various body parts. For example, the spherically-shaped muscle ball element can be used for general massage to aid in relaxing muscles; and the pin-pointer element can be used for targeted massage of particularly tense muscle fibers (muscular knots). The cylindrical central handle element can also double as a shoulder roller for releasing tension in the shoulders.

Embodiments of the invention provide systems, methods and apparatus for pelvic floor exercise. The invention includes an anchor adapted for insertion into a user's body; a cord coupled to the anchor and adapted to extend external to the user's body when the anchor is inserted internal to the user's body; and a weight system adapted to be removably coupled to the cord. Numerous additional aspects are disclosed.

A walker is provided. The walker includes a walker body, a handle unit, a first wheel unit and a second wheel unit. The handle unit is connected to the walker body. The first wheel unit is connected to the walker body. The second wheel unit is connected to the walker body. In an auxiliary mode, a first gap is formed between the first wheel unit and the second wheel unit. In a driving mode, a second gap is formed between the first wheel unit and the second wheel unit. The first gap is smaller than the second gap.
