ELECTRICAL TREATMENT DEVICE
A electrical treatment device (100) includes a band-like member (20), a first electrode portion (41), a second electrode portion (42), a first mark portion (31) configured to be aligned with a specific position of a right lower limb when the band-like member (20) is wrapped around the right lower limb such that the first electrode portion (41) is guided to a first target position and the second electrode portion (42) is guided to a second target position, and a second mark portion (32) configured to be aligned with a specific position of a left lower limb when the band-like member (20) is wrapped around the left lower limb such that the first electrode portion (41) is guided to a third target position and the second electrode portion (42) is guided to a fourth target position.

NEURAL INTERROGATION PLATFORM
A system includes spatially isolated nodes proximal to a cortical surface or spinal cord, a telemetric antenna array located above the dura, the telemetric antenna array configured to provide power to and exchange data with the spatially isolated nodes, and a power and data distribution unit configured to power the spatially isolated nodes, aggregate recorded data, send the aggregated recorded data and commands through a wireless link.

Self-Adjustment Belt with Bumps
An apparatus of self-adjustment belt with bumps is used during physical exercise, stretching, or just worn around a user's body to provide support, resistance, create compression, and offer a self-guided automatic adjustment. The apparatus provides constant conscious body awareness and can help enhance balance reactions and re-educate muscles. The bumps of the apparatus help relieve muscle tension by applying pressure and gentle massage to chiropractic trigger points of the user's body. The apparatus is equipped with sensors providing health data and monitoring activity or any health changes. Additionally, the apparatus provides heating and/or cooling to desired areas of the user's body. Further, the vibrators inside the bumps of the apparatus offer a better massage through vibration, which can also be light tapping, or electric stimulation, to relieve muscle tension and strain, tone muscles, and stimulate the circulatory system of the user.
Bioimpedance measurement method and apparatus with electrical stimulation performance
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method and apparatus for measuring a bioimpedance and performing an electrical stimulation, the method including generating a first current corresponding to a first high-frequency, generating a second current corresponding to a second high-frequency, generating a low-frequency current based on a beat phenomenon of the first current and the second current, and calculating an impedance of a target part based on a voltage induced to the target part by a high-frequency current corresponding to at least one of the first current and the second current and the low-frequency current.
Modulation of neuronal NKCC1 as a therapeutic strategy for spasticity and related disorders
Methods, devices, and systems for treating spasticity, hypertonia or dystonia are disclosed. Treatment involves applying a source of direct current to one or more locations in a subject (animal, human, or other sentient being). Locations for application of direct current include the spinal column, peripheral nerves, and the cranium. The delivery of direct current is adjusted to change biological activity of or level of gene expression and/or protein expression of target molecule NKCC1.
