Provided is a skin care device including a head part brought into contact with skin of a user, a battery configured to supply power for operation of the head part, a body part having a fastening portion provided at one end to which the head part is fastened and provided with the battery therein, and a cap assembly detachably attached to one end of the body part and forming an accommodation space configured to accommodate the head part, wherein the cap assembly includes a sterilization module disposed to irradiate ultraviolet light toward the head part when the cap assembly accommodates the head part.

Rehabilitating an impaired body part of a subject such as a stroke patient includes systems, devices, and methods using an orthosis system configured to attach to the impaired body part and to move or assist in movement of the impaired body part. A control system is configured to operate the orthosis system in a mode in which the orthosis system first allows the subject to move volitionally or attempt to move volitionally the impaired body part in a predefined motion and then operates to move or assist in the predefined motion of the impaired body part. Additional modes of operation include a brain computer interface mode of operation and a mode in which the orthosis system operates in a continuous passive mode of operation comprising a plurality of repetitions of an exercise to move the impaired body part.

Devices and methods for treating carpal tunnel syndrome or DeQuervain's syndrome. The device may include a resting portion for receiving a user's forearm, first and second contact portions configured to contact the user's forearm, and a stretching mechanism configured to apply opposing forces to the first contact portion and the second contact portion to stretch the user's underlying tissue. The first contact portion may be configured to apply a compressive force to the user's forearm at a first location. The second contact portion may be configured to apply a compressive force to the user's forearm at a second location different than the first location.

Disclosed is a structure for therapeutic applications comprising at least one layer with sensor elements and heating elements. A first force affects the layer from one side and a second force affects the layer from the other side. The forces are detectable. The sensor elements can comprise, for example, position sensors, pressure sensors, and temperature sensors.

Some embodiments are directed to a cellulite treatment system that contains a laser generating device. A hydrogel patch may include a region, at a first side of the hydrogel patch, to be in contact with a person's skin. The region may contain an adsorbing medium (e.g., carbon black or any other substance that would have a similar effect) that, when receiving a laser beam from the laser generating device, results in Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (“ESWT”) being applied to the person's skin to treat cellulite.

An intelligent start and stop massager is provided, which includes a first shell, a connecting spring, and a second shell; the first shell is connected to the second shell through the connecting spring; a vibration motor is arranged in the first shell; the vibration motor is in driving connection with a deflection member; a battery, a main control board and a touch switch are arranged in the second shell; the main control board is in conduction connection with the vibration motor, the battery and the touch switch; a first rubber layer is wrapped on an outer side of the first shell; and a second rubber layer is wrapped on an outer side of the second shell.

Disclosed embodiments provide a pressure field stimulation device having an arm adaptable in shape. Embodiments of the improved stimulation device include a cup, a driver, and an arm. The arm is flexible in such a way that it holds its position when bent. The adaptable arm may be a handle, a member insertable into the vagina or rectum, or a connection member between the pressure field stimulator and another stimulator. In use, a user positions a rim of the cup such that an opening to the cavity is over an area to be stimulated (e.g., the clitoris). A sealed-, or substantially-sealed, chamber is formed by the cavity walls and the user's skin (surrounding the clitoris). A pressure field is generated in the chamber, providing sexual stimulation to the clitoris. The user can adjust the placement of the cup by bending the arm.

A device used for applying an antiseptic preparation, such as an antibiotic solution or water, or all other substance deemed necessary in treating a wound prior to arrival at a hospital or other treatment facility or for continuing wound therapy and maintenance while hospitalized, in an out-patient facility or at home. A loose-fitting bag is provided which encloses the wound by securing the open end(s) to the patient by closing means. The bag further includes ports or resealable flaps that allow access to the wound for treatment and cleaning while containing all fluids resulting therefrom. A high friction scrub surface is provided in the bag. A method and apparatus are also provided for wound maintenance with a lavage system.

The present invention relates generally to the field of joint cracking. More specifically, the present invention relates to a joint cracking device. The device is primarily comprised of a body further comprised of at least one vertical support, at least one cushion, at least one hinge, at least one semi-circular member, and a base. To use the device, a user steps onto the base and positions their body within the semi-circular member. The user then presses a button to inflate an inflatable cuff on the interior surface of the member such that the user is secured within the member. Then, the member is rotated upwards such that the back of the user is cracked on the cushion, which is preferably convex in shape. Then, the member is returned to its original position, wherein the user can then crouch downwards to exit the member.

Devices for improvement of the basic crutch, cane, and ambulatory aids to provide needed support to ameliorate potential injuries and improve ambulation for persons suffering from injured lower limbs, lumbar region or other injuries, and who frequently require using crutches for mobility. Normally, the conventional crutches require more energy from the user than merely walking, and frequently, a crutch user may require rest. Prior crutch systems have not provided a convenient way to provide the user with such rest. Also, we show crutch support in sitting position that works as a simple and handy decompression system for herniated or bulged discs and injured/weak back muscles. An integrated crutch and walker system is described.
