A system for promoting knee flexion may comprise a support bar and a plurality of pads removably mounted thereto, such that sequential use of the plurality of pads may progressively allow a knee joint to move through an increased range of motion.

A knee joint flexibility rehabilitation apparatus having a tubular strut with a support foot and a bracket, a height-adjustment bar translatably and rotatably disposed in the tubular strut, and a padded support bar fixed substantially perpendicularly to the height-adjustment bar, the padded support bar being configured to receive a knee joint posterior.

A device for spine correction, in a particular human spines, has a keyboard with numerous adjacent segments comprised of opposed back supports. The keyboard (3) has at least one set of cooperating segments A, B and C supported on curved arch elements which bias a patient back in engagement with the keyboard toward a desired back configuration. The device includes a support frame (1), and a relatively movable mobile frame (2) on which the keyboard is supported. A measurement system includes a controller (49), a server (50) and a screen (51). The controller is connected to sensors (26) which determine rotational positions of the segments. The server provides outputs from the screen (51) responsive to the sensed data.

A massage machine has a base (1) and a bed (6) with a first longitudinal axis frame transversally swinging mounted on the base (1) and sustaining a patient support plane (7) having a head crossbar and a foot crossbar (17, 11) being mutually connected by telescopic side members (18) and ball joints (19). A second frame being mounted under the patient support plane (7) and has pairs of lower and upper oscillating end cross members (59, 60 and 59-A, 60-A) being joined together by pairs of lower and upper telescopic longitudinal members (62, 63) and ball joints (19-B) and supports a longitudinally movable massage apparatus having massaging roller systems (27) and massaging planetary systems (28) arranged on supporting frames (45, 45-A) movable in turn on lower telescopic longitudinal members (62), and patient supporting elements with idle transversal rollers (29, 30) sliding on upper telescopic longitudinal members (63).

A polyvalent apparatus for physical therapy including a support to which is fastened a first tool provided for a specific treatment, a second and a third tool provided for a specific treatment, the second and the third tool being connected to the support in combination with the first tool.

The multi-purpose fitness device is provided in a comfortable posture such as being seated, face up or face down, to generate twisting of various body sites, loosen muscle stiffness in hypokinetic people, and promote blood circulation intermixed with muscle training, for recovery, maintenance and promotion of health. Dieting, rehabilitation, massage, stretching, cellulite prevention, and metabolic syndrome prevention exercise are addressed. For generating twisting in various body sites, the multi-purpose fitness device comprises: main body having a rotatably supported strut, a repetitive drive unit connectably disposed below the strut, upper and lower wings fixed to both side surfaces of struts, and a pad driver slidably connected on the top part of strut; and pad parts as accessories. By flexibly transmitting rotation of the main body units movable front-to-back, left-to-right and up-and-down to a human body, twisting exercises become possible in exercise bodily free positions.

An exercise apparatus comprises a main body with a cavity that can be selectively covered with a lid. The main body is angled to increase the range of motion of a user of the apparatus. At least a portion of the lid is selectively housed within the cavity. A smaller scale embodiment of the exercise apparatus can be utilized as a sitting apparatus that corrects posture while a user is in a seated position. A method of exercise comprises a variety of steps which can be performed by a user while the user remains on his or her back.
