A customizable cleaning brush, including a main body, a plurality of head members removably connected to at least a portion of the main body to brush, scrub, and massage a body of a user, a plurality of operation controls disposed on at least a portion of a first side of the main body to perform at least one of a rotation, oscillation, and vibration of the plurality of head members, and a plurality of pressure controls disposed on at least a portion of a second side of the main body to perform at least one of a speed control and a pressure control of the plurality of head members.

A temperature-controlled massage node that imparts either or both a heating or cooling effects is provided, which may be attached to a massager to impart a heating or cooling effect on a user with a massage effect, or optionally, without a massage effect. The temperature-controlled massage node may be affixed to the massager or may be removably coupled. The temperature-controlled massage node may be powered by the same power source as the massager or may include an independent power source located, for example, in the massage node. The massage node may be used with a massager that provides percussive massage effects, such as a massage gun, or may be used with a vibrating massager. Optionally, the massage node may include independent power, a controller and a motor to supply both a vibrating massage effect and hot and cold effect, either alone or in combination.

Techniques and devices for extending a piston and/or compression unit, for example connected to a medical device such as a mechanical CPR device, to accommodate different sized patients, are described herein. In some cases, a piston of a mechanical CPR device may include an inner piston at least partially slidable into an external piston sleeve. In one aspect, some aspects, the piston includes sleeves which can move relative to each other to extend the piston. In additional aspects, the compression mechanism may also extend downward toward the patient. In all aspects, the change in length of the piston may be detected and used to modify movement of the piston, for example to more safely perform mechanical CPR.

A system and method for controlling the speed of operation of sexual stimulation devices from videos of sexual activity using a less computationally-intensive method of estimating movement speed from a video. In an embodiment, the system and method involve estimating movement in a video using pixel-by-pixel color change over time, calculating a rate of color change in the video, estimating a speed of movement in the video from the rate of color change, and applying an algorithm to convert the estimated speed of movement in the video to a speed of operation of a sexual stimulation device.

An exoskeleton system includes a cable, an exoskeleton device, a controller, and a motor. The exoskeleton device includes a frame comprising a first portion coupled to a second portion by a joint, a first crossbar supported by the first portion of the frame, and a second crossbar supported by the second portion of the frame. The first crossbar is configured to redirect the cable toward the second crossbar, and the cable is configured to affix to the second crossbar. The motor is connected to the cable and configured to cause the cable to provide a torque about the joint. The controller controls the motor to adjust the torque. The cable provides the torque by exerting a first force on the first crossbar and a second force on the second crossbar. The cable provides the torque about the joint in a first direction.

Methods for treating Blepharitis, Meibomian Gland Dysfunction and Dry Eye Syndrome include thermal massage, thermal debridement, and thermal expression. Particular embodiments include use of handheld devices that provide the thermal therapy to tissue by contacting a surface heated with thermal energy to a patient's tissue. Thermal energy can be continuously provided during operation. In particular embodiments, a handheld device comprises a base assembly operatively connected to a removeable thermal energy applicator. A wide range of thermal applicators may be connected to the base assembly to provide different treatments, including heat application, debridement, and expression of the treated tissue or gland.

The apparatus includes a moxibustion container assembly for localized application of therapeutic herbal smoke originated from gas-producing combustible material, an air pump connectable to the moxibustion container assembly via an inlet tube to supply air to the moxibustion container assembly, a vacuum pump connectable to the moxibustion container assembly via an outlet tube to create a partial vacuum to draw air from the moxibustion container assembly and exhaust air thereafter, and an air purifier connected to the vacuum pump to remove the contaminants in the air exhausted from the vacuum pump.

A skin cleansing device has a base body and a removable cleansing head. The base body houses a vacuum pump and has a mount for connecting to the removable cleansing head. The mount has an opening into the base body and a support surface. The removable cleansing head has a collection portion and a mounting portion. The collection portion defines an inlet and an internal cavity. The mounting portion has a stem defining a channel fluidly connected to the internal cavity. The cleansing head is removably connectable to the base body with the stem being configured to be received in the opening of the mount. The vacuum pump is configured to generate a fluid flow through the internal cavity and the channel into the base body such that a suction force is generated at the inlet.

Hand grip therapy devices and systems for rehabilitation system for increasing the functionality and/or strength in a hand compromised by disease, injury, and the like. In one embodiment the hand grip therapy device includes a dodecahedron portion which is gripped by a hand having less functionality and a prism or paddle portion which is gripped by a hand having greater functionality, the device then being manipulated in a therapeutic manner using both hands.

Devices, systems, and methods for High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation therapy can include a therapy garment including a covering garment for dressing on a patient's torso, the covering garment including a bladder pocket defined between inward and outward layers, and a fluid bladder arranged within the bladder pocket. The fluid bladder can define a pressurizable chamber adapted to receive pressurized fluid to provide force of high frequency pressure oscillation to a patient's chest wall. The pressurizable chamber can be formed to define an outer profile shaped to correspond closely with the patient's rib cage profile to reduce transfer of force of high frequency chest oscillation to the patient's torso outside of the patient's rib cage profile.
