The present disclosure relates to a massage apparatus comprising a UV sterilization module, the massage apparatus comprising: a main frame which forms a framework of the massage apparatus and includes an upper frame and a base frame; a seat pad or a back pad formed on the upper frame, for improving the sitting comfort of a user; arm massage portions formed at opposite sides of the main frame and massaging the arms of the user; the UV sterilization module for sterilizing and disinfecting at least a part of the seat pad, the back pad, or the arm massage portions; a controller for controlling operations of the massage apparatus; and at least one human body sensor which executes a first confirmation for determining whether the user is adjacent to the massage apparatus, wherein the controller, when the user is not adjacent to the massage apparatus, sterilizes the massage apparatus for a preset time period by using the UV sterilization module.

UTERINE MASSAGE BELT

Uterine massage belts and related methods are generally described. In some embodiments, a massage belt may be configured to compress a uterus between two force-applying components to induce uterine contraction and reduce the risk of postpartum hemorrhage. The belt may include at least one roller configured to push at least a portion of the uterus (e.g., the uterine fundus) in an inferior direction. The belt may be used with at least one inflatable body to push at least a portion of the uterus in a superior direction. The uterus positioned between the opposing forces may be urged to contract and increase its muscle tone to avoid severe postpartum complications. In some embodiments, the inflatable body may be part of the belt and may be positioned proximal to the pubic bone of the patient. In other embodiments, the inflatable body may be separate from the belt and positioned inside the vagina.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A MASSAGE APPARATUS

A system and/or massage apparatus to obtain massage data from the massage apparatus (such as a massage chair) for control of a virtual representation of the massage apparatus in a simulated environment is developed. The system and/or massage apparatus is especially suited for a simulated and/or interactive environment such as virtual reality/augmented reality environment. The actual motion(s) of one or more physical massage mechanisms of the massage apparatus is obtained in the form of data signal(s), processed, rendered and displayed in the simulated and/or interactive environment as three-dimensional content. A user interface in the simulated or interactive environment may be used in a real-time or near real-time basis to provide a seamless experience to a user.

MASSAGE MACHINE
20170304141 · 2017-10-26 ·

A massage machine includes a massage portion that performs a massage with respect to a user and a first storage section that stores a first massage course that corresponds to a musical piece. The musical piece is subject to a selection by the user. The massage machine includes a control unit that is configured to control an operation of the massage portion based on the first massage course. The massage machine may include a second storage section that stores data of the musical piece. The first massage course stored in the first storage section may be formed based on a variation of an acoustic signal included in the data of the musical piece stored in the second storage section. In this case, the control unit may be configured to execute the second massage course.
