A61H23/004
Personal use extracorporeal low intensity acoustic or shock wave mechanical tip and methods of use
A treatment device includes a housing having a longitudinal axis extending between a proximal end and a distal end, a striking element disposed within the housing and moveable along the longitudinal axis, a tip disposed adjacent the distal end, and a nose cone disposed about at least a portion of the tip, the tip being moveable within the nose cone.
BURP BABY DEVICE
A method includes positioning a burping device at an initial position. The method also incudes identifying a padding area, and moving the padding area to a target area to provide continuous padding to a target area. The padding area is re-positioned in one or more intervals, wherein the padding area is set to a timer. The method also includes discontinuing the continuous padding to the target area.
Wireless midfield systems and methods
Implantable devices and/or sensors can be wirelessly powered by controlling and propagating electromagnetic waves in a patient's tissue. Such implantable devices/sensors can be implanted at target locations in a patient, to stimulate areas such as the heart, brain, spinal cord, or muscle tissue, and/or to sense biological, physiological, chemical attributes of the blood, tissue, and other patient parameters. The propagating electromagnetic waves can be generated with sub-wavelength structures configured to manipulate evanescent fields outside of tissue to generate the propagating waves inside the tissue. Methods of use are also described.
Muscle optimization device and method
A device and method are provided for therapy and treatment of biological tissue such as muscle, tendon, and ligament tissue, by use of a device and method in which therapeutic vibrational frequency resonance patterns are transmitted to tissues of a patient. The resonance frequencies originate from many resonance domains, including vitamins, minerals, herbs, amino acids, and fatty acids. Each domain includes therapeutic frequency resonance patterns. These resonance patterns may be passively excited and transmitted to a patient to enhance tissue function, to decrease the normal rehabilitation time of damaged tissue, and provide therapeutic benefits for muscle tissue dysfunction. Therapeutic frequency resonance patterns may also be actively excited by a delivery mechanism that uses electromagnetic or mechanical waves to interact with the device. The actively excited device transmits the therapeutic frequency resonance patterns to the patients for similar enhancements and therapeutic benefits.
MASSAGER
Disclosed is a massager, comprising an appliance body, a first massage part and a second massage part. The first massage part is connected to an end of the appliance body for massage interior of a human body; and the second massage part comprises a support, an elastic element and a first vibrating element. The support is connected to a peripheral surface of the appliance body, the elastic element is connected to the support, and the first vibrating element is connected to an end of the elastic element away from the support and located on a side of the support close to the first massage part. The technical solution of the present application can improve massage comfort of the massager.
Method and system of mechanical nerve stimulation for pain relief
A system and method of using a lead introduced to a subject proximate to a region of pain is contemplated to deliver pain relief without the need for multiple needle insertions or electrical stimulation. The three-dimensional lead may include spring-like characteristics and/or coils to translate mechanical energy into the therapy.
Hypotrochoid assembly for generating vibrations in an exercise machine and method for using same
An inner assembly and an outer assembly of a hypotrochoid apparatus with a spindle located inside the inner assembly where a spindle proximate end and a spindle distal end each employ at least one mechanical interface. An eccentric hub provides a central throughbore for receiving a spindle, where the spindle is rotatably engaged with the eccentric hub and the inner bore which enhances vibration when the spindle is rotating and the eccentric hub is engaged.
Non-invasive nerve stimulation to patients
Devices, systems and methods are provided for treating a disease or disorder in a patient. The methods include positioning a surface of a housing in contact with an outer skin surface of the patient and applying sufficient energy to an energy transmitter within the housing via a power supply to generate an electrical impulse at or near a vagus nerve of the patient. The electrical impulse is sufficient to modulate fibers of the vagus nerve and treat the disease or disorder.
AIR CUSHION ARRANGEMENT FOR A SEAT, FOR EXAMPLE A VEHICLE SEAT
Air cushion assembly for a seat, such as a vehicle seat, comprising at least an air cushion and an air supply system for variably pressurizing the air cushions of the air cushion assembly with air. A respective supply line comprising a shut-off valve leads from the air supply system to each air cushion, where a pulsation module is provided and configured to act upon each air cushion with a pulsation. The pulsation module comprises a pneumatic element which is connected in a pressure-equalized manner to at least one supply line, and an actuating element for transmitting a mechanical motion to the pneumatic element for changing the volume of the pneumatic element in order to generate a pulsation.
Therapeutic device for treatment of conditions relating to the sinuses, nasal cavities, ear, nose and throat
A rechargeable therapeutic system for treating conditions of a user's nasal cavities, sinuses or ear canals includes a therapeutic device having a housing that includes an inlet that allows air to enter the therapeutic device. An acoustic vibrator located within the housing provides an acoustic vibration to the user, and a power supply located within the housing provides power to the acoustic vibrator. A mask is connected to the housing and configured to be applied around the nose of the user. A valve of the mask is configured to allow the user to breathe through the inlet. The mask further includes a diaphragm and a nasal cavity in which the user's nose is located when the mask is applied around the nose of the user. A recharging station is configured to provide a charging current to the power supply.
