The lumbar therapy belt is a therapeutic device. The lumbar therapy belt is configured for use with a patient. The patient is further defined with a torso, a spine, a pelvis, an abdomen, and a lumbar region. The lumbar therapy belt includes a belt, a fastener, and a plurality of pads. The fastener and the plurality of pads attach to the belt. The belt is a strap. The fastener attaches the belt to the patient such that the plurality of pads are positioned over the lumbar region. The plurality of pads press against the lumbar region such that the normal movement of the patient causes the plurality of pads to stretch the muscles of the lumbar region, including spinal muscles, laterally so as to relieve downward pressure on the spinal discs and nerves.

DYNAMIC REACTIVE SYSTEM AND METHOD TO SUPPORT AND CHANGE SITTING POSTURES

There is provided a dynamic and proactive system for supporting sitting while detecting and changing sitting postures of a user and method of operation thereof. The system including a frame, a plurality of supports, each configured to support a different body part, and a plurality of joints each configured to move independently of or together with any other of the joints, each of the supports is connected to the frame via a corresponding joint, at least one of the joints is a two dimensional joint which enables a change in angle between the frame and a corresponding support. Each one of the plurality of supports is configured to move with respect to the frame or to another support, thereby enabling any changes in sitting postures of the user. The system comprises sensors, which based on their readings, the system detects user postures and suggests or creates posture changes.

Back clapping machine with chest percussion function

A back clapping machine with chest percussion function includes a casing, a movement mechanism, a clap mechanism, and a buffer unit. The casing includes an outer cover, a rear cover, and a housing space therein, in which the movement mechanism is disposed. The clap mechanism is in the housing space and connected with the front lateral side of the movement mechanism. The buffer unit is in the housing space and arranged to elastically abut against the outer cover and the rear cover therebetween. Thus, the present invention automatically carries out back clapping operation and detects the distance for back clapping, also provides a shock buffering effect, thus achieving a back clapping chest percussion operation through a hand alike structure and preventing pressure ulcer.

System and method for heat or cold therapy and compression therapy

A medical device providing a combination of thermal and DVT therapies to a patient. The components, arrangement of components, function of the device as a whole, and methods of use of the device are all devised to maximize therapeutic effectiveness. Effectiveness in this context is measured by the ability to provide a controlled application of the recommended thermal treatment including time, temperature, compression, and number of cycles with specified cycle duration.
