Equipment for self-care of patients with chronic pain, through inducing, intensifying and maintaining their own frissons and where multisensory and multimodal stimuli are used to achieve it; musical, visual, aromatic and vibrotactile and cold are applied on the cutaneous surface of the spine. In addition, the method for using them through perceptual learning is presented. The equipment includes a computer and a computer system with a music and video player, lighting, presentation of aromas and a closed hydraulic circuit with a hydraulic actuator.

According to some embodiments, a method of promoting hair growth or hair stimulation in a subject comprises applying vacuum or suction using a handpiece assembly along a targeted portion of the subject's skin surface where hair growth or hair stimulation is desired and providing at least one treatment material to said targeted portion of the subject's skin surface, wherein the application of vacuum or suction helps promote hair growth or stimulate hair.

Apparatus and methods for producing thermal comfort using two point or multipoint heating or cooling that is applied to portion of a human body part to produce a warm or cool sensation over a larger area than that where the heating or cooling is directly applied. The body is induced to heat or cool itself by adjusting its neutral temperature setpoints. Increased warming perception from two-point, multipoint, and switching point stimulation causes downward adaptation in the neutral skin temperature of the user. Because spot heating and cooling sources operate at higher temperature differences from the skin than do area sources, they create a stronger perceived thermal sensation for the same power consumption. Point heating or cooling, rather than whole-area heating, can result in power savings and cost savings while improving occupant comfort.

A vibration therapy device that includes a housing that includes a handle portion, a head portion and a module seat defined on the head portion, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor, and a therapy module removably secured to the module seat. The distal end of the push rod assembly is configured to removably receive a reciprocating attachment thereon. The therapy module at least partially surrounds the distal end of the push rod assembly.

A leg care apparatus includes a main body configured to provide an action space in which a leg is accommodated and at least one action space adjustment module configured to adjust a size of the action space. Accordingly, a leg may be cared to fit a size and length of the user's leg.

The present invention provides a practical method for treating atopic dermatitis. By subjecting patients suffering from atopic dermatitis to filtered temperature controlled laminer air flow disease symptoms have been significantly reduced and even removed. The velocity of the laminar air flow is balanced such that body convections are braked without the generation of draught..

A manipulator for a massage device includes a pair of main rods having a first end pivotably coupled to a first elbow assembly and a second end opposite the first end that is pivotably coupled to a second elbow assembly. The pair of main rods is transitionable between a first configuration and a second configuration, wherein, when in the first configuration the pair of main rods define a first length and when in the second configuration the pair of main rods define a second length greater than the first length. The manipulator further includes a first arm rod pivotably coupled to the first elbow assembly, and a second arm rod pivotably coupled to the second elbow assembly.

In various aspects, the invention includes a wearable therapy delivery device for applying thermal therapy and/or compressive therapy. In some cases, the wearable therapy delivery device includes an inner layer configured to contact a body surface of a user; an outer layer; temperature therapy modules enclosed between the inner layer and the outer layer proximate the inner layer; and/or compressive therapy modules located proximate the one or more temperature therapy modules. In some cases, the compressive therapy modules are configured to force the temperature therapy modules toward the body surface of the user.

Provided in the present invention is a handpiece (300) for a treatment device with improved stability and hygiene function by being configured so as to freely adjust the angle of a vacuum cap depending on a treatment site and to attach/detach the vacuum cap to/from the handpiece (300). The handpiece (300) capable of attaching/detaching a vacuum cap and adjusting an angle of the vacuum cap comprises: a vacuum cap (310) having an open lower surface and a hollow part formed therein; a body part (410) configured to attach/detach the vacuum cap (310) thereto/therefrom; a vacuum device (350) for providing a reference negative pressure to the vacuum cap so that a target site of the skin can be adhered toward the hollow part of the vacuum cap; a reference negative pressure variable device (360) for varying the reference negative pressure in a pulse form under the condition in which the hollow part of the vacuum cap (310) maintains the negative pressure; RF electrodes (320, 321) configured to be exposed to the inside wall of the vacuum cap (310) so that, when the target site of the skin has been adhered toward the hollow part of the vacuum cap (310), the skin adhered toward the hollow part comes into contact with the inside of the hollow part of the vacuum cap (310); and a control unit (380) for controlling driving of the vacuum device (350), the reference negative pressure variable device (360), and the RF electrodes (320, 321). The driving of the reference negative pressure variable device (360) and the RF electrodes (320, 321) for treating the target site of the skin is controlled so as to select any one of single driving, simultaneous driving, and alternating driving. The attachment/detachment of the vacuum cap (310) to/from the body part (410) is made by simultaneous coupling or simultaneous separation of a vacuum cap connection unit (430) that consists of a vacuum tube coupler (432) configured at an end of the body part (410), power supply connectors (433, 434), and a clip (435).
