The present invention discloses an enhanced design of the orthotic device with symmetrical estimations in stature and side width to provide enhanced stability. The assembly has three separate connectable levels which fit as blocks and enable the user to adjust each level as per individual requirements.

An apparatus and method for training muscle strength and mobility in the neck provides a dynamic resting position without pressure on the neck, of a person when in lying position. The apparatus includes a base element, a head support suspended floating above the base element, and a neck support rising from the base element. The neck support provides a fulcrum that defines head movement to a pivoting motion about a first axis (X) which runs sideways substantially along the shoulder line of the body, a pivot connection between the head support and the base element defines head movement to a pivoting motion about a second axis (Y) transversely to the first axis, and by its floating suspension the head support defines head movement to a pivoting motion about a third axis (Z) running in the longitudinal direction of the neck and body.

A mobilisation device may include two or more therapeutic surfaces for applying concentrated pressure to an area of a user. The therapeutic surfaces being connected by at least one support formation. The device may include an arcuate formation extending from a distal end of the at least one support formation. The arcuate formation may define a therapeutic surface. The two or more therapeutic surfaces may be linearly arranged therapeutic surfaces. The mobilisation device may include a base connected to a proximal end of the at least one support formation. The base may be contoured on at least one surface, thereby to define a recess into which a user's head may rest. The mobilisation device may be oriented to define a short configuration or a tall configuration.

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

Techniques for a cervical orthotic device are provided. In an example, the device can include a base, sidewalls extending upwardly from the base, and a cervical support surface opposite the base and configured to unite the sidewalls. In certain examples, the sidewalls can include opposingly paired lateral sidewalls and first and second longitudinal sidewalls. In some examples, the cervical support surface can include a first planar portion adjacent the first longitudinal sidewall, a second planar portion adjacent the second longitudinal sidewall, and an arcuate portion intermediate the planar portions.

A therapeutic neck exercise device for neck pain relief and stiff neck treatment, includes a back plate, two shoulder belts, and two bottom belts. The two shoulder belts and the two bottom belts are selectively coupled to the back plate. The device helps relieve the user's neck pain when stretching the head backward and stretching the shoulders forward. The stretching position is held for a period of time and then subsequently relaxed. The back plate contacts the upper back of the user. The user's hands push forward on the belts. The user's elbows touch the two bottom belts and push forward and downward. This urges pressure against the upper back of the user and pulls the shoulders forward. While holding the head in a straight position, the user pushes his head backward. This urges proper adjustment of the neck spine and results in decompression of the cervical disc.

A traction and decompression device for use in spinal therapy. The device includes a contoured headrest having a contour shaped and sized to fit a patient's head. The device also includes an adjustment mechanism having a base plate securable to an external structure. The adjustment mechanism also includes a headrest plate secured to the contoured headrest. The device may be incorporated into a spinal therapy bed or other apparatus. In certain embodiments, the device may be attached to a motorized actuator.

Apparatus for exercise the musculature and mobility of the joints in the neck wherein the apparatus comprises an upper part 4, a bottom part and a connecting element 3 connecting the upper and the bottom part, and wherein the upper part 4, the bottom part and the connecting element 3 defines a space in which the head of a user can be placed, characterized in that to the upper part 4 there is attached a cradle 5 in which the head of the user can rest and the lower part has attached a pillow for neck support 2.

A buoyancy-based cervical traction system has a floatation and a head rest supported by the flotation system. The head rest is adapted to support a person's head above the neck and apply traction to the neck when the person is in a body of liquid. The system has a position adjustment system adapted to allow selective adjustment of the position at which the person's head rest will be relative to an upper surface of the liquid when the person and the cervical traction system are in the liquid, the person's head is supported by the head rest, and the cervical traction system and person are floating in the liquid at equilibrium.

The present invention may be embodied as a system or method for dynamically exercising a user's neck muscles. The system includes a headset, an arm attached thereto, a weight, and at least one motor to move the weight, for example, about the arm. The weight may be mounted eccentrically on a radial track that is rotatable by one motor and moved linearly by another motor. The direction of the arm, the distance between an apex of the headset and the weight, the eccentricity of the weight on the axis, and the speed of rotation of the motor are all parameters that can be adjusted by the caregiver or user, either manually or via controlling software.
