The apparatus may include a handle, a stem connected to the handle, a pusher tip connected to the stem, and an electric heating element configured to increase the temperature of the pusher tip. The heating element may be used to heat the pusher tip so that a precise amount of heat and pressure may be applied to a subject's body during massage therapy.

An intelligent compression device for controllable compression. The compression device includes a compressible body and a microprocessor. The compressible body encircles a limb of a user and includes an elastomer layer and an activation layer. The elastomer layer includes voxelated liquid crystal elastomers that contract in response to a stimulus. The activation element, which is positioned proximate to the elastomer layer, supplies the stimulus. The microprocessor actuates at least a portion of the activation element layer.

According to one implementation an apparatus is provided that comprises: one or more support plates with which there are associated massage units, the one or more support plates being secured to and facing an abdominal wall of the body of a patient; massaging heads integrated in the massage units for performing an abdominal massage on the patient, wherein at least two massaging heads are applied such that they are adjacent to at least one section out of an ascending section, transverse section or descending section of the colon of the patient thereby to apply a localized force generating a pressure on the colon section in a direction normal to the abdominal area, wherein the at least two massaging heads are synchronized; and control means for controlling the magnitude and timing of the localized force.

A kneading massage machine core includes a shell, a motor, transmission mechanisms, a printed circuit board (PCB), heating lamp panels, lamp panel fixing pieces and kneading massage heads. The motor, the transmission mechanisms and the PCB are arranged in the shell. The transmission mechanisms are connected to the motor and the kneading massage heads, the heating lamp panels are connected to the PCB, the kneading massage heads are connected to the transmission mechanisms and positioned on a top portion of the shell, and the heating lamp panels are installed on the lamp panel fixing pieces. The lamp panel fixing pieces are fixed on a top surface of the shell and correspond to the kneading massage heads, and a plurality of heat emission holes are formed in each of the kneading massage head.

Disclosed is a massage apparatus including a processor configurable to receive a first dataset associated with a physio-logical parameter of an individual to derive a first emotional indication of the individual; wherein the first emotional indication and the first dataset are configured as inputs to derive a second emotional indication of the individual.

An apparatus for self-administering therapeutic pressure to provide chiropractic treatment to a user comprising a first and second side rails; wherein the first and the second side rails are parallel to each other, further the side rails comprises a fixable telescopic arrangement to fixedly adjust length of the side rails; a font cross rail, wherein the font cross rail acts as a thrust vector to provide desired pressure by the user; a back cross rail comprising at least one acupressure tip aligned substantially parallel to the side rails, wherein first and second side rails, the font cross rail and the back cross rail form a closed frame, whereby the adjustable side rails provide fixable adjustment of the frame depending on the user's needs. An upper cross rail, wherein the upper cross rail further comprises first padded upper rest points to act as a fulcrum between the font cross rail and the acupressure tip during the chiropractic treatment to a user's lower spinal area, whereby desired therapeutic pressure is self-administered by the user to provide chiropractic treatment to various body areas through the acupressure tip. In the preferred embodiment, this is through the use of the hoop formed by the rails that extends around the body and is held in front of the self-treating person, with the angles of the side rails extending down the side presenting a ready measure of the angle of the treating instrument on the spine.

A system, device, and method for therapeutic deep tissue massage is disclosed. The therapeutic deep tissue massage device includes an apparatus for use in therapeutic massage applications in which forces are provided to an outer surface of a user's, whether human or animal, body and subcutaneously within the user's tissues.

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.
