Cervicothoracic spine restorator
A cervicothoracic spine restorator is disclosed. In the cervicothoracic spine restorator, a fixing structure is further included, such that relaxation of muscles such as pectoralis major muscle, pectoralis minor muscle, rectus abdominis muscle, and trapezius muscle or latissimus dorsi muscle can be easily performed. Further, the blood vessel may be expanded and the blood may be supplied smoothly to the head. This may help recovery and correction during a short correction period. There is an advantage that a separate correction mechanism, which is used for spine correction such as a abdomen band, is unnecessary.
Therapeutic handheld devices for disorders
A handheld device for applying mechanical vibration to a body portion of an individual to treat a dry eye condition of the individual, includes: a housing; a member having a first portion accommodated in the housing, and a second portion that is moveable relative to the housing, wherein the second portion is for placement outside the individual, and is configured to oscillate to apply the mechanical vibration to the body portion, the member having an elongated configuration; and a motor in the housing, the motor configured to oscillate the member at an oscillation frequency sufficient to induce tear production when the second portion of the member is applied towards a surface of the body portion.
Therapeutic handheld devices for disorders
A handheld device for applying mechanical vibration to a body portion of an individual to treat a dry eye condition of the individual, includes: a housing; a member having a first portion accommodated in the housing, and a second portion that is moveable relative to the housing, wherein the second portion is for placement outside the individual, and is configured to oscillate to apply the mechanical vibration to the body portion; and a motor in the housing, the motor configured to cause the member to undergo bending action in a reciprocating manner to oscillate the second portion of the member at an oscillation frequency sufficient to induce tear production when the second portion of the member is applied towards a surface of the body portion.
Handheld device with motorized member for treatment of disorders
A handheld device for applying mechanical vibration to a body portion of an individual to treat a condition of the individual, includes: a housing; a member having a portion that is moveable relative to the housing, wherein the portion of the member is configured to oscillate to apply the mechanical vibration to the body portion, the member having an elongated configuration; and a motor having a weight that is supported by the member.
Universal Ischemic Compression Device
This invention is a universal ischemic compression device for self-treatment with interchangeable treatment modes providing people of varying abilities with a true self-treatment device with sustained and uninterrupted ischemic compressional framework. The interchangeable treatment modes (referred to as interchangeable treatment units) include a universal adaptor used to dock or insert a pre-existing or pre-owned massage therapy device. Another is an all-in-one unit that contains ischemic and percussive force mechanisms and may be extended with a handle that may be adjusted to user preference. The user specifies massage settings through a control panel for operation on the device. The rotating massage head receiver allows the user to interchange different massage heads to allow for multiple treatments from a single base unit. Another interchangeable treatment mode is an ischemic compression hook for static pressure point release.
Treatment methods using handheld devices for disorders
A method to treat a dry eye condition of an individual, includes: receiving a switch signal generated based on a manipulation of a control switch at a handheld device; and activating a motor in response to the switch signal to oscillate a member at an oscillation frequency, the member having an elongated configuration, and having a portion for placement outside the individual; wherein the oscillation frequency is sufficient to induce tear production when the portion of the member is applied towards a surface of a body portion of the individual.
Methods for enhancing female orgasm
Methods and devices are described for performing at least one of enhancing female sexual arousal, enhancing female sexual pleasure, or enhancing an ability to achieve or experience a more pleasurable orgasm for a female. In some cases, an acoustic wave stimulus is combined with one or more of providing a suction stimulus and a vibration stimulus as this may be further beneficial to the female.
Vibrating Massage Table
The invention relates to a vibrating massage table (1) including a support leg (3) on which rests a table top (2) tilting about a joint (4) with a central axis (40) and permitting an inclination of a patient, said table top being subdivided longitudinally into several butt-joined transverse cushions (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10) each adapted to a part of the body, one of the cushions (10), adapted to the ankles and the feet of the patient, being subdivided into two portions activated to vibrate alternately by at least one motor means.
Said table includes means for modifying the height and/or means for modifying the inclination of at least one of the cushions by lifting one or the other of the transverse edges of said cushion.
The platform is subdivided into two frames (21, 22) articulated to each other at the level of a joint (41), for an inclination between said frames.
Versatile and Ergonomic Percussions Massage Appliance
A percussive massage appliance has a general Y-shape, with first and second handle portions being suitable for being held by first and second hands, respectively, of a user, with the percussive massage head reciprocating along an axis that lies in a major arc defined by the two handle portions. One use for the device is so that a user can grip the device with both hands while delivering a percussive massage to his own lower back muscles. The device has a rotation mechanism such that the user can rotate the reciprocation axis through an arc of about 120 degrees relative to the handles, and an extension handle mates with one of the handle portions, providing great versatility to the user.
PATIENT/INVALID HANDLING SUPPORT
A patient support for supporting a patient includes an inflatable mattress defining a support surface and a pneumatic system for inflating the inflatable mattress. The pneumatic system includes a pressurized reservoir for holding pressurized air and selectively releases pressurized air from the reservoir to the mattress.
