Presented is a chiropractic adjustment and soft tissue mobilization tool. The tool includes a flat bottom section, and a spine adjustment section. The spine adjustment section includes two raised supports aligned substantially parallel, and a spine accommodating area formed along and between the length of the two raised supports for supporting an intended vertebrae portion of a patient's spine during chiropractic adjustment. The spine adjustment section further transitions to form a protruding edge adapted for performing soft tissue mobilization. The protruding edge further protrudes upwardly and rolls off to form a planar raised surface parallel to the flat bottom. Each side of the spine adjustment section features a recessed area formed thereof to allow a provider to hold the tool with the provider's fingertips and to aid in collection and re-dispersal of lotion applied during soft tissue mobilization procedure.

A massage unit includes a treatment member; an arm that supports the treatment member; a drive shaft that supports the arm and causes the treatment member to approach and be separated with respect to a treatment target site; a movable portion that causes the treatment member to be operable in a direction of being separated from the treatment target site when the treatment member comes into contact with the treatment target site by a force equal to or greater than predetermined strength; and biasing means for biasing the treatment member in an approaching direction.

A portable therapeutic device includes a portable body having a recessed central region and a raised outer peripheral edge surrounding the recessed central region and directly engaged with the recessed central region, a plurality of massage balls seated at the recessed central region and spaced inside a perimeter of the raised outer peripheral edge, a thermal-conductive element channeled inside the outer peripheral edge and spaced from the recessed central region, and a power source communicatively coupled to the massage balls and the thermal-conductive element.

An ankle-less walking assistant apparatus includes: a body supporting the back of a wearer; left and right hip joint-drivers extending from both sides of the body; left and right thigh links having first ends connected to the left and right hip joint-drivers, respectively; left and right knee-drivers connected to second ends of the left and right thigh links, respectively; left and right calf links having first ends connected to the left and right knee-drivers, respectively; and ground-contact feet fixed to second ends of the left and right calf links, respectively.

A medical apparatus for standing aid comprising a backrest (4) that has at least one side thereof provided with a crank rocker mechanism that comprises a crank mechanism (1), a triangular linkage mechanism (2), and a rocker mechanism (3), the crank mechanism (1) being rotatably connected to the triangular linkage mechanism (2) such that an included angle between a second driven link (BE) of the triangular linkage mechanism (2) and the crank mechanism (1) is always smaller than 90°, and the crank mechanism (1) driving the triangular linkage mechanism (2), the rocker mechanism (3) and the backrest (4) connected to the triangular linkage mechanism (2) to perform interactive movement repeatedly along a predetermined curve trajectory in response to a driving force coming from a drive effect of a driving unit (100), so that the backrest (4) connected to the second driven link (BE) assists a trainee in standing up repeatedly by obliquely supporting the trainee's waist.

It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a massage unit and a massage machine which can increase a protruding amount of a massage ball. A massage unit 700 includes a pair of massage elements 350; a forward-backward axis 722 forming a swinging fulcrum point for moving the pair of massage elements 350 toward a body of a person to be treated; and an up-and-down axis 732 for moving the massage unit, wherein the forward-backward axis 722 is formed in parallel with the up-and-down axis 732 and provided nearer to the side of the body of the person to be treated than the up-and-down axis 732.

An illustrated view of an exemplary walker device for a person necessitating the need of a walker and a wheelchair is presented. The walker device is light weight, foldable, provides contemporary conveniences and is cost efficient. The walker device can be further converted easily into a wheelchair.

A massage machine includes a main body that includes a treatment portion configured to perform treatment with respect to a user; a detecting portion configured to detect a running state of a component of the main body and to obtain running state data; a storage portion configured to store the running state data; and a control unit configured to control an operation of the main body. The control unit includes: a determining portion configured to determine presence or absence of an abnormality related to the main body; and an abnormality outputting portion configured to output an information related to the abnormality and the running state data when the abnormality determining portion determines that the abnormality is present.

An interface system in an exoskeleton includes a base support, a strap assembly, and posterior strut. The posterior strut has a vertical member defining a lower end connecting to the base support, and an upper end connecting to first and second transverse members extending in opposed directions from the vertical member. The first and second transverse members connect to the strap assembly. The interface system is adapted to receive and support an assistive device adapted to augment a user’s performance and mitigate repetitive strain injuries.

A spine alignment and massage device with a rigid member have an elliptically shaped top plan view and a left and a right protrusion. The raised protrusions are mirror images of each other. The inside surface of each the protrusion is approximately eighty-four degrees in angle forming a V shaped space between the two protrusions. The outside surface of each protrusion slops down at approximately forty-five degrees. The distance between the top of the two protrusions are approximately one and three quarters of an inch. The height of each protrusion is approximately two inches. The top portion of each the protrusion is a hemisphere of approximately one half of one inch in diameter. The base portion of the rigid member is curved along the short axis and has a radius of approximately twelve inches. In an alternate embodiment, the device is made of semi-rigid material.
