A wearable cubital tunnel syndrome prevention and treatment device is an auxiliary tool for the protection of cubital syndrome, using two long plate-typed main bodies with a convexly curved outer edge of the same shape to attach to the outer skin surfaces of the extensor and flexor tendon g with a fan-shaped spherical arc surface arranged in equal intervals on the inner side surface of the main body. The two extended sides of the outer edge surface of the main body cover both ends of the whole main body by means of the pass-through of the band or bonding, allowing convex arc rings to buckle the assembly tightly with the band, achieving the effect of holding and positioning and applying pressure with the elbow, and the effect of doing multiple point massage to the muscle groups of the extensor and flexor tendons on both sides of the elbow synchronously.

A device and method are provided for treating a patient with vibration and/or tactile and/or thermal stimuli. The device includes first and second stimulating units for generating first and second stimuli respectively. The stimuli are vibration and/or tactile and/or thermal stimuli, and each of the stimuli is repeated on average at a frequency of 1 to 60 Hz. The stimuli are generated partly at different times.

Apparatus for carrying out treatments on the human body, which includes a central unit provided with a compressor and two operational heads, each provided with a plate intended to contact the skin of the patient to be treated, and susceptible of being temperature-conditioned with a corresponding hot or cold fluid. Moreover, each operational head is provided with a plurality of pneumatic actuators, which are operable to move, in a retracted position and in a protruding position, by corresponding solenoid valves which are housed in the operational head, and are connected to the compressor (9) and to the corresponding pneumatic actuators.

A method and apparatus that affect vacuum to massage a volume of the skin and one or more types of skin treatment energies coupled to the massaged volume to treat the skin and subcutaneous adipose tissue and produce a desired treatment effect. The method and apparatus are based on coupling an array or a number of arrays being an assembly of skin treatment units with each skin treatment unit including a hollow cavity and a number of different energy to skin applying elements operative to receive skin treatment energy from a source of such energy and couple or apply the received energy to a treated segment of skin.

A therapeutic mat is described. The mat provides therapeutic relief in the form of vibratory motion and/or heat. The mat or pad is particularly useful as a floor mat in a vehicle. The mat includes provisions to enable powering the mat from a 12-volt direct current source, such as used in an automobile or other vehicle. A massage module can be removed from the mat to facilitate cleaning of the mat. The mat may also include one or more upwardly extending provisions for massaging the arch region of a user's feet. Also described are illuminated mats. The lights of a mat can operate based upon the operation of another mat, pulsations of the massage module, or based upon acoustic levels in the vehicle.

Example muscle tension relief devices are provided herein. A muscle tension relief device includes a first base portion extending in a first plane, a second base portion extending in a second plane, and a muscle engagement feature extending generally upwardly. There is a non-zero angle extending between the first plane and the second plane. The device is configured to engage with and relieve tension in a user's iliacus or psoas muscles. The device can transition from a first position resting on the first base portion to a second position resting on the second base portion to cause the muscle engagement feature to change orientation to apply pressure at the proper position on a user's psoas major muscle. The shape of an upper portion of a body of the device and the muscle engagement feature correspond to the shape of a hand, such as that of a physical therapist.

The present disclosure provides a compression stocking that comprises a tubular fabric body and a piezoelectric material that is incorporated into the tubular fabric body. The piezoelectric material changes shape in response to actuation energy to generate a compressive force. When the compression stocking is placed on a user's leg, the compressive force may compress blood vessels in the user's leg to assist with the return of venous blood.

A compression-resistant device includes least one pair of first and second opposing jaw members having respective engaging surfaces for movement from an open position receiving an object and a closed position engaging the object. A manual compression surface enables a user to manually apply pressure to urge the engaging surfaces from one of the closed position towards an open position or from the open position towards the closed position. At least one resistance member interfaces with the first and second opposing jaw members to resist pressure manually applied by a user urging the engaging surfaces from the closed position towards the open position or from the open position towards the closed position. The manual compression surface includes projections such that manually applied pressure forms at least one aggravated area on a finger surface of the user to initiate a callus. A corresponding method of operating the device is also disclosed.

A mask member which fits over a portion of the face of a user. A retaining member holds the mask in place on the user's head. Eye portions allow the user to see while wearing the mask. A treatment mechanism is positioned on an interior surface of the mask for skin treatment including treatment around the eyes. A control mechanism controls the treatment mechanism.

According to some embodiments, a method of promoting hair growth or hair stimulation in a subject comprises applying vacuum or suction using a handpiece assembly along a targeted portion of the subject's skin surface where hair growth or hair stimulation is desired and providing at least one treatment material to said targeted portion of the subject's skin surface, wherein the application of vacuum or suction helps promote hair growth or stimulate hair.
