A portable therapeutic unit and system for treating a back, a neck, or the back and the neck of a user is disclosed. The therapeutic unit includes a first seat, a back support, a hinge, and a metal back. The first seat is designed for the user to sit thereupon. The back support is designed to support a back of the user. The hinge pivotally connects the first seat and the back support. The metal back is connected to the back support, with the metal back magnetically coupling with an attachment magnet. Further, the attachment magnet couples to a therapeutic aid to deliver treatment to the user.

A method for performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) includes elevating the heart of an individual to a first height relative to a lower body of the individual. The lower body may be in a substantially horizontal plane. The method may also include elevating the head of the individual to a second height relative to the lower body of the individual. The second height may be greater than the first height. The method may further include performing one or more of a type of CPR or a type of intrathoracic pressure regulation while elevating the heart and the head. The first height and the second height may be determined based on one or both of the type of CPR or the type of intrathoracic pressure regulation.

A massage chair includes a seat portion, a back portion a leg portion, and a massage carriage configured to move within the seat portion, the back portion, and the leg portion. The massage carriage includes comprises a percussive massage assembly comprising a motor, a reciprocating shaft coupled to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor, and a reciprocating massage head coupled to the reciprocating shaft. The massage chair also includes a support mechanism associated with the percussive massage assembly. The support mechanism is configured to support a weight of a user of the massage chair, thereby allowing the reciprocating shaft and the reciprocating massage head of the percussive massage assembly to reciprocate.

The present application provides a zero-gravity massage folding chair, which relates to the technical field of health care equipment. The zero-gravity massage folding chair comprises a chair body and a face fabric provided on the chair body, wherein the chair body is provided with a plurality of massagers, the massagers are provided on the face fabric, the chair body is unfolded when in use, the massagers provided on the chair body massage corresponding parts of the human body, and the chair body is folded when not in use. The zero-gravity chair of the present application can choose to massage in different scenes according to actual needs, such as in parks or at home, thus overcoming the defect that the traditional space capsule massage chair cannot move according to actual situations.

A walking assisting apparatus includes a leg mounted device configured to be mounted on a leg of a user to assist walking of the user. A waist mounted device is provided on an upper side of the leg mounted device and configured to be mounted on a waist of the user. A support is located on a front side of the leg mounted device and configured to contact a ground surface. A control device is coupled to a front side of the waist mounted device, electrically connected to the leg mounted device, and configured to control the leg mounted device. A connector connects the control device and the leg mounted device to detachably housing house the support.

A massage chair and an input device in data communication with the massage chair is disclosed. The massage chair has several massaging mechanisms, each of which is for massaging a corresponding one of a number of body parts of a user. The input device includes a touch screen display. The input device is operable to display on the touch screen display a body part selection screen. This body part selection screen includes a human body representation and a number of body part representations corresponding to the body parts of the user. Each body part representation is individually selectable for actuating a corresponding massaging mechanism to massage a corresponding body part of the user. One of more of the plurality of body part representations is of an irregular shape and of a size that at least substantially covers a corresponding body part of the human body representation.

A flexible wearable robot for assisting with a walking motion of a user may include a thigh strap to be worn to enclose a thigh portion of a user, a shank strap to be worn to enclose a shank portion of the user, a driver to be worn on a back or waist portion of the user to provide a driving force for assisting with a walking motion of the user, a first driving wire with one end connected to the thigh strap and the other end connected to the driver to receive tension, a second driving wire with one end connected to the shank strap and the other end connected to the driver to receive tension, and a controller to control a drive of the driver to selectively apply tension to at least one of the first driving wire and the second driving wire.

Vibration therapy delivered as a low-magnitude; high-frequency stimulus offers a means to deliver relevant mechanical signals safely to patients who cannot exercise to build musculoskeletal strength. Vibrations will begin at the cellular level and metastasize to the muscles and the entire musculoskeletal system. What I am proposing here is instead of using mechanical loading, we can do it more effectively using “Resonant Frequency”; which is the frequency of an external oscillation or vibration that matches an object (or cavity's) natural frequency, as a result either causes it to vibrate or increases its amplitude of oscillation. In mechanical systems, resonance refers to the amplification, reinforcement, or prolongation of sound or other vibrations. Using an external oscillation equipment, we match the natural frequency for the musculoskeletal system which will create vibration throughout that system which will improve bone density, increase strength and increased mobility.

A power assist suit includes a harness worn at least around hips of a wearer, an assist unit, a power unit, and a bearing roller. The assist unit includes an arm and a thigh-worn part. A rail is provided at a part of the arm in a longitudinal direction. The rail includes channel-shaped parts extending along the longitudinal direction. The thigh-worn part is connected to sliding movable parts or integrated with at least a portion of the sliding movable parts. The bearing roller is disposed between each of the channel-shaped parts in the rail and each of inner wall surfaces of the sliding movable parts facing the respective channel-shaped parts.

Disclosed is a collapsible walking device that can be disposed in an operative (open) configuration and a storage (closed) configuration. The open, operative configuration of the walking device provides a structure to aid a user in walking or standing. The closed, storage configuration allows for easy and convenient storage and transport of the walking device. The collapsible walking device can be transitioned from the operative configuration to the storage configuration in one motion. The walking device includes four support legs that extend to the ground from adjacent two handles, and a seat configured to support the user.
