A portable therapeutic device includes a portable body having a recessed central region and a raised outer peripheral edge surrounding the recessed central region and directly engaged with the recessed central region, a plurality of massage balls seated at the recessed central region and spaced inside a perimeter of the raised outer peripheral edge, a thermal-conductive element channeled inside the outer peripheral edge and spaced from the recessed central region, and a power source communicatively coupled to the massage balls and the thermal-conductive element.

The majority of adult devices have been designed for an individual to hold. However, it would be beneficial to provide users with a range of adult devices that support their use either in a hands free manner and/or are compatible with being worn by the user for varying periods of time from intermittent/occasional short durations through to extended wearing such as all day for example. In order to provide such wearable devices being able to separate the drive means from the stimulation means provides increased design flexibility as well as allowing different designs of adult device to be implemented as the design flexibility within the appropriate regions of the user's anatomy increases when the large vibratory motors are removed and connected to the stimulation means via flexible drive shaft. Further, beneficially, flexible drive shafts allow operation as the user moves during normal activities, such as sitting, standing, walking, etc.

The invention comprises an apparatus for arm exercise for therapy of a subject. The apparatus comprises a base comprising a planar upper surface. A first set of parallel rails are affixed to said upper surface of the base, the first set of parallel rails comprising a first rail and a second rail positioned parallel to each other and separated from each other by a predefined first distance. A second set of rails comprising at least a third rail having a first end and a second end are also provided, wherein said first end is slidably mounted on the first rail and said second end is slidably mounted on said second end. A sliding mount is slidably affixed to the second set of rails, and configured such that said sliding mount can be slidingly moved between the first end and the second end of the third rail.

An apparatus for the motor rehabilitation of the upper and lower limbs is disclosed, which is compact, portable, lightweight, and easy to transport. The apparatus has an adapter for the distal end of the patient's limb, a robotic arm, a gear system, two motors, and virtual and/or augmented reality software to interact with the patient. A management and control system makes possible the execution of movements and exercises in the three-dimensional space so that patients with neurological, musculoskeletal, muscular, rheumatic, motor and/or cognitive diseases or injuries and patients in post-surgical recovery may exercise and recover the movements of their upper and/or lower limbs. The equipment may also be used for the purpose of training and physical fitness.

A mechanical exoskeleton wearable apparatus and an operation control method as well as an operation control device for the same are provided in the embodiments of the disclosure, so as to enrich usable functionalities of the mechanical exoskeleton wearable apparatus. The mechanical exoskeleton wearable apparatus includes a foot wearable mechanism; a leg wearable mechanism including: shank supports articulated with the foot wearable mechanism, thigh supports articulated with the shank supports, and first stroke regulators articulated with the foot wearable mechanism and the thigh supports respectively at both ends; and a hip support mechanism configured to connect with the thigh supports. Each of the first stroke regulators is configured to be extendable and retractable with a leg action of a user, and an extending or retracting condition thereof is lockable.

A method for correcting a massage position and a massage chair for performing the same includes allowing a shoulder height measurement module to measure a shoulder height of a user, allowing a hip bone position prediction module to predict a hip bone position through a preset prediction method by using the shoulder height measured by the shoulder height measurement module, allowing a massage position determination module to determine a plurality of determination massage positions and a plurality of correction massage positions spaced from the determination massage positions by a predetermined distance on the basis of the hip bone position predicted by the hip bone position prediction module, and allowing a massage ball assembly control module to control a massage ball assembly so as to massage the determination massage positions and the correction massage positions determined by the massage position determination module.

A joint mobilization apparatus includes a pulling unit and a power unit. The pulling unit includes a wearable member set for mounting on the patient's joint part, and a rope set connected to the wearable member set. The power unit provides power of reciprocatingly pulling the rope set, and includes a shell member, a motor, and a reciprocation mechanism connected to the motor and the rope set. The reciprocation mechanism is driven by the motor to reciprocate relative to the shell member, so as to pull the rope set to reciprocate the wearable member set and patient's joint part. By using the power unit to drive the pulling unit to pull reciprocatingly for mobilizing the patient's joint part, instead of the therapist's treatment, the therapist's burden in physical strength can be reduced. Furthermore, the joint mobilization apparatus can provide the user to execute various muscle training modes.

An apparatus for manipulating (in one alternative correcting) the cervical curvature of a user, the apparatus having a top, a bottom, a first end, a second end, a first side and a second side, wherein: proximate the top, a thoracic section for receiving the upper back region of a user, preferably for receiving the thoracic region of the user; proximate the top, a cervical section for receiving the cervical curve region of the user; the cervical section is movable with a traction path in at least one of the following planes vertical, horizontal and combinations thereof; in one alternative, the cervical section is movable in an arc-like motion along the vertical plane.

The massage machine includes a massage unit for treating a treatment target person, a first drive unit for driving the massage unit in a direction facing a treatment site of at least the treatment target person, and a control unit that controls driving of at least the first drive unit. The massage unit is configured to include a treatment unit in an articulated structure with at least two or more joints, and a second drive unit that drives the treatment unit in the direction facing the treatment target site of the treatment target person. The at least the two or more joints are shifted from each other in a direction intersecting a longitudinal direction of the treatment target site.

An exothermic natural massage shell includes a natural bivalve shell comprising a first half and a second half adhered together with an adhesive to form a hollow chamber. An aperture is formed in the first half to provide a portal to the hollow chamber of the bivalve shell. A reactant is disposed inside the hollow chamber of the bivalve shell. The reactant may be a reactive powder mixture disposed inside a fluid-permeable pouch. Combining the reactant with an activator inside the hollow chamber of the bivalve shell causes an exothermic reaction that heats the bivalve shell and maintains the bivalve shell at a substantially constant elevated temperature for a duration of time. The adhesive adhering the first shell half to the second shell half includes a first elastomeric polymer bonding agent with balanced coefficient of expansion properties and a second flexible resin sealant that makes the adhesive moisture-proof.
