Device for generating electrical, magnetic and/or electromagnetic signals for treating the human body, and method for operating such a device
The invention relates to a device for generating electrical, magnetic, and/or electromagnetic signals, which, at different treatment frequencies, can be used to treat the human body, an electronic noise element (22) being provided as a means for providing a noise signal, which noise signal can be used for the selection of a treatment frequency, the properties of which electronic noise element are at least partly dependent on at least one biophysical radiation emission of the human body.
Photobiomodulation therapy to reduce the effects of fibromyalgia
Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) can be applied to a tender area on a subject's body to treat fibromyalgia. A light source device can be contacted to a subject's skin proximal to a tender area on the subject's body. A light signal (with wavelengths from the red to infrared part of the spectrum) can be applied in at least one of a pulsed operating mode, a continuous operating mode, and a super-pulsed operating mode through the light source device to the tender area. The light signal is applied for a time sufficient to stimulate a phototherapeutic response in the tender area to treat fibromyalgia.
Transdermal optogenetic peripheral nerve stimulation
A nerve in a mammal is optogenetically transduced, wherein the nerve is susceptible to stimulus by selective application of transdermal light, and a light source is applied to dermis of the mammal at or proximate to the optogenetically transduced nerve, to thereby stimulate the nerve. A wearable device for optogenetic motor control and sensation restoration of a mammal includes a wearable support, a power source at the wearable support, a controller at the wearable support and in electrical communication with a power source, and a transdermal light source coupled to the controller.
DETACHABLE LIGHT THERAPY BELT
A detachable light therapy belt includes a circuit board, multiple light emitting components, a contact layer, and a mounting component; the circuit board has a first surface and a second surface; the light emitting components are mounted on the first surface of the circuit board; the contact layer has a contact surface, a connecting surface, and multiple holes; the connecting surface and the contact surface face opposite directions, and the connecting surface is connected to the first surface; the holes are formed through the contact layer and on locations corresponding to the light emitting components; the mounting component has a mounting surface, wherein the mounting surface is mounted on the second surface of the circuit board; the contact layer of the detachable light therapy belt contacts a human body, and the connecting surface of the contact layer is detachable from the first surface of the circuit board.
Sterilizing Mouthpiece Assembly
A sterilizing mouthpiece assembly for reducing the airborne transmission of infectious diseases includes a mouthpiece for positioning in a user's mouth. A shelf is integrated into the mouthpiece and a wedge extends upwardly from the shelf. A plurality of first light emitters is each of the first light emitters is integrated into the mouthpiece and each of the first light emitters emitting light in the ultraviolet spectrum to sterilize the inside of the user's mouth. A plurality of second light emitters is each positioned on the wedge and each of the second light emitters emits light in the ultraviolet spectrum to sterilize the inside of the user's mouth.
