The invention relates to a portable massage device with a sheath, having a variable-shape contact segment for resting on a body region to be massaged, a rotating massage head and a pummeling massage head, the rotating massage head and the pummeling massage head being arranged within the sheath and being set up to cause a change of shape of the contact segment during operation.

The present application is concerned with a skin treatment device that has a handle section arranged to be held in a human user's hand, a treatment head section having a skin treatment unit and a skin contact frame having a skin contact surface, the skin contact frame at least partially encircling a skin treatment area and a vibration generation unit being coupled with the skin contact frame to vibrate at least a portion of the skin contact frame at an ultrasonic frequency.

An adapter assembly for use with a reciprocating treatment device that includes a main body portion having at least a first top male attachment member or a first top female attachment member on a top thereof and at least first and second bottom male attachment members or first and second bottom female attachment members on a bottom thereof.

A user module for a patient support apparatus is provided. The user module has a user interface operably coupled thereto. The user interface includes an input device and an output device. The output device includes a visual display including textual and non-textual elements. The non-textual elements include enhanced, graphical, and animated portions relating to one or more operational features of the patient support or to a person positionable on the patient support. The input device includes one or more touch sensors corresponding to defined regions of the visual display.

A massage device includes a coupling member adapted for attachment to a power output shaft, a proximal foam pad attached to the coupling member, and, a distal foam pad bottom. Portions of the distal foam pad are adapted to cover over at least one side of the proximal foam pad and form a highly resilient curved surface. A removable bonnet shaped and sized to tightly fit over the distal foam pad and proximal foam pad includes an outer surface with a low coefficient of friction that may be applied to over the clothing without grabbing for providing a softer and safer percussive massage.

A manipulator for a massage device includes a pair of main rods having a first end pivotably coupled to a first elbow assembly and a second end opposite the first end that is pivotably coupled to a second elbow assembly. The pair of main rods is transitionable between a first configuration and a second configuration, wherein, when in the first configuration the pair of main rods define a first length and when in the second configuration the pair of main rods define a second length greater than the first length. The manipulator further includes a first arm rod pivotably coupled to the first elbow assembly, and a second arm rod pivotably coupled to the second elbow assembly.

A percussive massage device that includes a housing, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, and a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor. The housing includes first, second and third handle portions that cooperate to define a handle opening, wherein the first handle portion defines a first axis, the second handle portion defines a second axis and the third handle portion defines a third axis, and wherein the first, second and third axes cooperate to form a triangle.

A percussive massage device that includes a housing that defines a housing interior, a battery, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, and a reciprocating shaft operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor. The reciprocating shaft includes a distal end that defines a reciprocation axis. The housing includes a first side portion and a second side portion that cooperate to define the housing interior and are defined on opposite sides of the reciprocation axis.

A percussive therapy device that includes a housing, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to provide reciprocating motion in response to activation of the motor, and a massage attachment secured to a distal end of the push rod assembly. The reciprocating motion of the push rod assembly has a user-adjustable amplitude.

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.
