A pressure applicating assembly for treatment of menstrual cramps and other discomfort; the apparatus comprising a pressure applicator apparatus and a flexible strap. The pressure applicator apparatus comprises a plurality of styluses arranged in both a direction parallel to the strap and a direction perpendicular to the strap. The pressure applicator apparatus is secured to a patient using the strap in a manner to apply pressure to a tender location on an interior region of a patient's calf. The applied pressure can be employed to relieve the patient of menstrual discomfort by identifying the tender spot by applying light pressure to a menstrual discomfort controlling pressure region. The identified tender spots are considered the menstrual discomfort controlling pressure points. The plurality of styluses applies a distributed pressure to the region to ensure the tender spots are sufficiently addressed, thus relieving the patient of the discomfort.

A male sexual stimulation device comprising: an anal or prostate stimulation shaft; and a holder for holding a male penile stimulation device, wherein said anal stimulation shaft is connected to the holder by a connecting strap, and wherein the holder of the male penile stimulation device is in the form of one or more closed rings/loops or adjustable straps. The function of the holder connected the anal or prostate stimulation shaft is to hold any conventional male penile masturbation device firmly, so that the male sexual stimulation device disclosed according to the invention, along with any conventional male penile masturbation device, can function as an apparatus to provide simultaneous sexual stimulation to more than one erogenous zones such as the penis, perineum, anus and the P-spot.

A system can include a base configured to support a lower half of a human body. The system can also include a headrest elevated relative to the base, wherein the headrest is disposed adjacent to a proximal end of the base, where the headrest is configured to support a head of the human body. The system can further include a back platform having a first end and a second end, where the first end is coupled to the base, where the second end is disposed adjacent to the headrest, and where the back platform has a curvature, where the back platform is configured to support a torso of the human body. The system can also include a vibrating mechanism in communication with the back platform, where vibrations generated by the vibrating mechanism translate to the back platform.

A foot massaging assembly for massaging a user's feet includes a stand that may be positioned on a support surface. The stand may be vertically oriented on the support surface. A massage unit is slidably coupled to the stand. A bottom side corresponding to each of a user's feet may be rolled on the massage unit. Thus, the massage unit may massage the user's feet. The massage unit is selectively positioned at a selected point along the stand.

Controlling movement of an end effector coupled to a robotic arm includes receiving an indication of a massage technique to be performed. It further includes determining a surface in a plurality of surfaces of the end effector to interact with a massage recipient when performing the massage technique. It further includes determining an operating space for the end effector in performing the massage technique based at least in part on the determined surface of the end effector. It further includes controlling the movement of the end effector to operate within the determined operating space.

A sturdy portable massage roller that collapses flat. The roller includes an outer contact skin formed of a plurality of longitudinal stiffeners connected by longitudinally-extending hinge points, the contact skin defining an inner cavity. A collapsible support structure within the contact skin inner cavity is sized to contact and radially support the longitudinal stiffeners in the expanded shape of the contact skin, and is adapted to collapse so that the massage roller converts between a generally cylindrical expanded shape and a collapsed, flattened shape. The support structure may include a series of rigid discs that either pivot or are folded in half to convert the massage roller between its expanded and flat configurations.

Systems and methods for exerting forces on a body, including a support structure defining a space and a plurality of surface contacting units that are configured to exert force upon the body, such that the weight is distributed away from the primary weight bearing regions to non-weight bearing regions of the body, or vice versa, without exerting significant shear or frictional forces on surfaces of the body. The systems and methods may be used to exert forces to cause fluid shift in different compartments of the body. Applications include treatment of various disease conditions including pressure ulcers, heart failure, high blood pressure, preeclampsia, osteoporosis, injuries of spine and to slow microgravity-induced bone and muscle loss. The systems and methods may be used to simulate gravity, weightlessness or buoyancy, in rehabilitation medicine. The system may include a chair, bed, a wearable suit or an exoskeleton.

A treadmill having a curved treadmill deck is provided. Two curved side frames are disposed at two sides of the treadmill frame. Front and rear end ends of each curved side frame are higher than a middle section thereof. Inner sides of the two curved side frames are provided with a plurality of fixing seats, respectively. The fixing seats have fixing holes, respectively. An elastic deck is composed of a plurality of sheets connected side by side. The sheets each have perforations corresponding in position to the fixing holes of the respective fixing seats. A plurality of fixing pins are inserted in the perforations of the sheets of the elastic deck and secured to the fixing holes of the fixing seats. The elastic deck is forcibly fastened by the fixing pins and slightly deformed according to the curvature of the curved side frames to form the curved treadmill deck.

A unit has been designed to be applied within the area of physiotherapy and is applicable to both medical and athletic therapeutic programs to provide correction of functional states of the spine and the nervous system to eliminate nervous overloads, fatigue, and stress. Moreover, the unit corrects spinal disorders, paravertebral muscular disorders and can be used as a part of mobilizing procedures to act on biologically active body points, and as a part of therapeutic procedures to relieve the spine.

A massage and muscle release tool having a base having four sides divided into two adjacent pairs of sides with the sides of each pair being of equal length. Each of the sides arms are joined by a corner defining a front and back corner and opposed side corners. A handle extends from the base. There are a plurality of rounded protrusions protruding from the bottom and the protrusions, corners, sides and handle can all be used to manipulate muscles in various ways to alleviate adverse physical conditions.
