A cervical traction device has and occipital tractioning member and a handle. The device is positioned between the occiput of a person and the floor or other surface. Rotation of the handle away from the person's torso exerts opposite forces against the occiput and the surface, which exerts a tractioning (extension) force upon the cervical spine. The occipital tractioning member can advantageously comprise first and second spaced apart plastic spheres.

A laryngeal nerve exciting system includes a collar holding a bridge, or a neckband, pressing soft tissue nerve exciters against a patient's neck providing a source of vibrations to stimulate the laryngeal nerve through the larynx. At least one exciter, and preferably two exciters, provide vibrations at preferably 70 Hz to 110 Hz and sufficiently strong to penetrate to the laryngeal nerve. The exciters may be held by the collar circling the neck, or by the neck band partially circling the neck. The therapy system includes a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) and software which wirelessly connects, monitors, and triggers the device. The system may be used to treat dysphagia, chronic cough, and spasmodic dysphonia.

An exoskeleton to support and move a large character costume and to transfer weight of the costume away from a performer's body. The exoskeleton includes a spine including an elongated and rigid vertical member and also includes a waist ring configured to extend about a waist of a performer using the exoskeleton in a spaced apart manner. A lower end of the spine is attached to a rear center portion of the waist ring. The exoskeleton includes a pair of leg assemblies each pivotally coupled on opposite sides of the waist ring. Each of the leg assemblies is spaced apart from a leg of the performer and extends below a foot of the performer, whereby weight is transmitted to a support surface. Each of the leg assemblies may include at least one passive assist mechanism configured to assist the performer in moving the exoskeleton with bipedal locomotion.

A floating physical therapy device includes a frame and a harness. The frame includes an inner frame and an outer frame on the right and left side. The inner frame defines a patient area. The harness is attached to the inner frame such that it secures a patient to the device in a substantially upright position during use. The frame extends forwards and backwards, as well as to the left and right, of the patient area in order to provide stability in the water during normal use. The frame defines a trainer area immediately forward of the patient area where a therapist can have access to the patient during therapy sessions.

A neck massaging device includes an elastic arm, a handle, a connecting member, an electrode assembly, and an electric pulse generating device. The handle includes a first outer shell and a first inner shell. The first outer shell includes a connecting end and a free end opposite to the connecting end, and the first inner shell is buckled with the first outer shell. The connecting member is for connecting the handle to the elastic arm. The connecting member is connected to the connecting end of the handle and buckled with the first inner shell. The electric pulse generating device is electrically connected with the electrode assembly. The free end of the handle may swing with the connecting member as a pivot under an action of external force to drive the first inner shell to be separated from the connecting member.

The decompression chair will allow a user to help straighten and support their back for pain relief while they sit. The decompression chair carefully stretches and aligns the body by pulling back the shoulders, supporting the lumbar region, holding the neck and lower legs and raising the upper back. The decompression chair of the present invention has an adjustable back rest for optimal angles and collapses for easy storage at home. Adjustable straps, back supports and foot pads ensure an optimal fit.

The pillow of the present disclosure comprises: a first unit body and a second unit body which are arranged side by side in the left and right directions and are connected to each other with a variable gap therebetween; a third unit body which is coupled to the first unit body so as to move relative thereto in the forward and backward directions; a fourth unit body which is coupled to the second unit body so as to move relative thereto in the forward and backward directions, disposed in parallel to the third unit body in the left and right directions and coupled thereto with a variable gap therebetween; a first gap adjusting unit for allowing the third unit body and the fourth unit body to get further apart from or closer to each other in the forward and backward directions with respect to the first unit body and the second unit body; and a second gap adjusting unit for allowing the first unit body and the third unit body to get further apart from or closer to each other in the left and right directions with respect to the second unit body and the fourth unit body.

The present disclosure provides a cervical traction pillow includes a cervical traction pillow main body and a heating device. The heating device covers the cervical traction pillow main body. The cervical traction pillow main body is a flexible cervical traction pillow main body with a narrow upper part and a wide lower part, so as to form a neck brace traction portion at an upper end and a base at a lower end, a first back portion connected between the neck brace traction portion and the base, and two first side portions opposite and connected to the neck brace traction portion, the base, and the back portion. The neck brace traction portion and a bottom surface of the base are connected in an acute angle.
