Massage machine
A massage machine includes a seat unit on which a treatment subject person is configured to sit, a backrest unit configured to support a back of the person sitting on the seat unit, a base that is disposed in front of the backrest unit; and a treatment mechanism that is attached to the base configured to perform a massage on a shoulder of the person in a state where the person sits on the seat unit. The treatment mechanism includes a drive unit which includes an output shaft attached to the base and rotated by supplied power, and a treatment device configured to press the shoulder from above. In accordance with rotation of the output shaft, the treatment device oscillates in an upward/downward direction so as to perform the treatment on the shoulder.
MASSAGE TOOL
A massage tool, including a generally cylindrical grip portion, a generally hemispherical massage head portion, wherein the generally hemispherical massage head portion defines an edge portion and a generally flat bottom portion, and an extension member extending between and connected to the generally hemispherical massage head portion and the generally cylindrical grip portion.
Stretching belt for stretching of the spine
A stretching device for stretching and aligning a user's back may include a belt, optionally a gambrel and universal hook, and optionally a support system, such as a slotted door mount. The belt may be designed to wrap around the user's back and under the user's armpits, wherein the belt is a segmented belt having a plurality of raised segments spaced along a length of the belt. Rings may be attached to each end of the belt, wherein the rings may be designed to engage with a mounting device, such as the gambrel and universal hook.
Reinforced therapeutic wrap and method
A therapy wrap for treatment of at least a portion of an animate body having improved kink resistance. The therapy wrap may be selectively reinforced for improved kink resistance in only a portion of the wrap. The reinforcement may decrease the kink radius. The wrap may include a kink reducer in all or only a selected kink-prone region. The kink reducer may be selectively configured attachment points or spot welds. The therapy wrap may include a reinforcement layer of one or more discrete reinforcement members. The wrap may be formed by pre-tensioning the material layers while forming the fluid bladder and/or gas pressure bladder. The therapy wrap may be adapted to compensate for conditions that normally cause kinking of the wrap or buckling of the fluidic channels. Also disclosed are methods of manufacturing the wrap and methods of administering a temperature-controlled treatment to an anatomical body part.
TELESCOPIC ROTARY MASTURBATION CUP MASSAGER
The disclosure provides a telescopic rotary masturbation cup massager, comprising a shell and a massaging silica gel member provided in the shell, a drive motor, a rotating member, a sliding member and a transmission gear assembly are provided in the shell, the transmission gear assembly is arranged above the drive motor and engages with the rotating member, a fixing member is sleeved on an outer surface of the rotating member, and a sliding guide rod is provided between the fixing member and the sliding member. The telescopic rotary masturbation cup massager is simple in structure and convenient to use, and produces a better massage effect.
Pain-relieving apparatus
The pain-relieving apparatus has a housing, a stimulating surface, user inputs, and a plurality of ports, such as a battery port and a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) output connector. The stimulating surface may include a suction ring, vacuum apertures, vibration stimulators, a plate, heat and cold transducer elements, and medicinal holders to provide various approaches for relieving pain. The pain-relieving apparatus may also have a sound speaker for producing nerve stimulating sounds.
Method for controlling a grasp assist system
A grasp assist system includes a glove having a glove palm and fingers, with the glove worn on a user's hand. A sensor measures flexion of the glove fingers, and thus a change of position and/or attitude of the fingers is determined. Finger saddles at least partially surround a phalange of a respective one of the user's fingers. The system uses one or more tendon actuators to pull on flexible tendons. Each tendon connects to a respective finger saddle. A controller is in communication with the actuators and sensor(s). The glove may use feedback from optional contact sensors to adjust tension, and may have a built-in restorative force. In executing a control method, the controller selectively applies tension to the tendons in response to finger flexion, via the tendon actuators, at a level sufficient for moving the user's fingers when the user executes a hand maneuver.
FACE CRADLE SYSTEM
A face cradle system; the face cradle system includes a face cradle configured to be used in combination with a host massage therapy table. The face cradle includes an adjustable frame includes an open-ended oval shape having a first-arm extension, a second-arm extension, and an oval portion. The oval portion of the adjustable frame includes a padded forehead hammock positioned at a closed end of the oval portion. The padded forehead hammock features a sinus relief nodule which makes contact upon, and applies pressure to, an area directly above a bridge of a nose. The oval portion, the first-arm extension and the second-arm extension are connected at an adjustable pivot point. The face cradle system promotes proper alignment of the spine, relieves and prevents a user's sinus pressure while in a prone position, and overall facilitates a more beneficial massage.
Finger-splinting sheath device and method
A finger-splinting sheath device is provided for use as a self-treatment aid in assisting a bowel in a patient suffering from complications of pelvic organ prolapse, namely rectocele. The finger-splinting sheath device generally includes a monolithic molded body including a flange-element, and a sheath-element having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the sheath-element is coupled to the flange-element at the proximal end and is closed at the distal end. The sheath-element generally includes an elliptical cross-section configured to receive two-fingers therein, wherein the sheath-element functions to splint the two fingers during use. A method for using the device includes inserting the device with two fingers within the sheath-element into the vagina and applying pressure to the vaginal walls to assist a bowel movement.
DEVICE FOR TREATING CELLULITIS
A massage device comprising at least one arcuate support provided with a plurality of adjacent rollers, wherein each roller is constrained to the arcuate support in a certain position and is further adapted to rotate about an axis belonging to a plane substantially parallel to the tangential plane to the profile of the arcuate support at said certain position, and each roller of said plurality of rollers is convergent or divergent with respect to the immediately adjacent roller.
