A temperature-controlled massage node that imparts either or both a heating or cooling effects is provided, which may be attached to a massager to impart a heating or cooling effect on a user with a massage effect, or optionally, without a massage effect. The temperature-controlled massage node may be affixed to the massager or may be removably coupled. The temperature-controlled massage node may be powered by the same power source as the massager or may include an independent power source located, for example, in the massage node. The massage node may be used with a massager that provides percussive massage effects, such as a massage gun, or may be used with a vibrating massager. Optionally, the massage node may include independent power, a controller and a motor to supply both a vibrating massage effect and hot and cold effect, either alone or in combination.

Described is a wearable device configured to oscillate a chest of a user. The wearable device may include a chest wall oscillator, a sound detector, and a controller for controlling operations of the chest wall oscillator, based on sound from the sound detector. The chest wall oscillator may be mounted on the chest of the user to oscillate the chest of the user. The sound detector may detect the sound from the chest of the user before, during, and/or after operation of the chest wall oscillator. The controller may change one or more of a frequency, intensity, or duration of the oscillations of the chest wall oscillator, depending on an analysis of the sound from the sound detector.

A system for treating a joint of a patient includes a treatment head including a probe, a force impulse wave sensor, and a pressure sensor. When the probe is pressed against the joint and reaches a predetermined pressure, the pressure sensor causes a release of current such that the probe delivers a mechanical force impulse to the joint. The force impulse wave sensor is configured to sense a frequency of the mechanical force impulse associated with a treatment point of the joint. The treatment head remains in the same target spot during the pre-test, treatment, and post-test. The system is configured to perform the pretest and post-test analysis of the plurality of treatment points to evaluate improvement of the joint after the treatment. The treatment protocol for the treatment point is modified based on the sensed frequency of the mechanical force impulse from the pre-test at the treatment point.

A fluidic switching module body defining an inlet passage, a first nozzle in fluid communication with the inlet passage, an air splitter in fluid communication with the first nozzle, and a first transfer passage in fluid communication with a first side of the air splitter. A second transfer passage is in fluid communication with a second side of the air splitter, a second nozzle is in fluid communication with the first transfer passage, and a second air splitter is in fluid communication with the second nozzle. A first bladder passage is in fluid communication with a first side of the second air splitter, and a second bladder passage is in fluid communication with a second side of the second air splitter. A first vent passage is in fluid communication with the first bladder passage, and a second vent passage is in fluid communication with the second bladder passage.

A percussive therapy device 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 reciprocate in response to activation of the motor, and at least one of an angular position sensor configured to obtain angular position data of the percussive therapy device and a linear position sensor configured to obtain linear position data of the percussive therapy device. An attachment module is configured to be operably connected with a percussive therapy device and includes a housing, a wireless connection module, and at least one sensor configured to obtain biometric data of the user or obtain information regarding operation of the percussive therapy device.

A percussive therapy system that includes a percussive massage device including a network interface, and an intelligence engine. The intelligence engine is configured to receive manual capture data and real-time tracking data from the percussive massage device, receive remote data from a remote data source, and generate recommendation data comprising a recommended protocol to be performed by the percussive massage device. The recommendation data is generated from demographic, activity, temporal, analytics, and biometric data, received from the manual capture data, the real-time tracking data, and the remote data inputs.

Devices, systems, and methods for percussion therapy of a patient's torso area provide percussive force to release and/or dislodge mucous from respiratory airways of a human patient. Such devices, systems, and methods may include a torso covering for securing to a patient's torso, percussive devices coupled to the torso covering, and an attachment assembly for supporting the torso covering. The percussive devices may include a percussion frame, an electromechanically actuated percussor for controlled movement between end positions, and resilient members attached to opposite ends of the percussion frame for assisting controlled movement of the percussor. The devices, systems, and methods disclosed herein provide efficient and comfortable high-frequency percussive force to a patient's torso, reducing stress on the patient and improving patient experience.

A massage device for a seat includes a pressing portion configured to expand to press a seat occupant seated on the seat, an adjustment portion configured to adjust a position of the pressing portion between the seat occupant and the seat, a deformation detector configured to detect deformation of the seat caused by expansion of the pressing portion, and a controller configured to control the adjustment portion based on a detection result of the deformation detector.

A hand-held muscle relaxation device includes a power supply arranged transversely which includes a housing; a power supply; a motor; a massage head module and a power conversion mechanism. The power conversion mechanism is mounted inside the housing and the power supply is electrically connected with the motor. The motor is provided with a first rotation axis, and the motor drives the massage head module to perform a linear reciprocating movement along a first axis through the power conversion mechanism. The housing comprises a casing and a handle mounted at a side of the casing. The motor is mounted inside the handle and the power supply is mounted inside the casing. During working, the motor drives the massage head module to perform a linear reciprocating movement at a higher frequency to achieve an impact, beating, and massage on the human body.

A valve assembly attached to a capacitor such that pressurizing the capacitor to a first positive pressure threshold induces the valve assembly to open, the pressurized air is released to the patient, and then as the pressure in the capacitor drops to a second pressure threshold the valve closes and the capacitor begins to build pressure until the first positive pressure threshold is achieved and the process repeats. Relative to the valve assembly and integrated therein, is an incrementally adjustable index knob to vary the rate of a biasing force performing work against the actionable valve face of the diaphragm functional surface to set the performance of the valve assembly, thereby increasing the potential for correct operation across a range of oscillating rates supporting a broad spectrum of patient therapies and types.
