A foot spa tub includes a tub basin, a first magnetic drive member rotatably coupled to a drive motor, and a first casing supporting the magnetic drive member. The first casing is disposed against an exterior surface of a sidewall of the basin. A second magnetic drive member is rotatably coupled to a blade. The first and second magnetic drive members are magnetically coupled to each other so that the blade is drivingly coupled to the drive motor. A nozzle houses the second magnetic drive member and the blade. The nozzle is detachably securable to an interior surface of the sidewall by a magnetic attraction force between the first and second magnetic drive members. A method of circulating liquid in a foot tub spa is also provided.

A substance applicator device having a proximal end and a distal end includes a wedge-shaped rigid housing having a lower surface and an upper surface, the upper surface defining a cavity, a fixed valve seat disposed within the rigid housing and defining a chamber therein, a pump disposed on the valve seat and configured to draw the substance from the chamber, and a toggle disposed in the cavity of the rigid housing and moveable relative to the housing, the toggle being in contact with the pump, the toggle including an upper cover, a lower frame and a well disposed therebetween, the upper cover having at least one hole and the lower frame having at least one aperture.

A fluid pump assembly is provided. The pump has a pair of units magnetically coupled to each other. The first unit contains a drive motor and a magnetic assembly. The second unit contains a magnetic assembly and a blade of a propeller/impeller for imparting movement to a fluid. As the first unit is activated by the drive motor, a magnetic flux is created which in turn rotates the magnetic assembly in the second unit, driving the blade.

A jet pump has an impeller with a magnet that can be rotated by a shaft having a magnetic drive plate and wherein the impeller and the magnetic drive plate are separated from one another by at least one solid wall surface. The impeller can be located in a pump housing having a base and a cover. The base can have a surface bearing so that the impeller can contact therewith and rotated against the surface of the surface bearing.

A device for securing a discharge end of a gas discharge apparatus inside a gas delivery conduit of a fluid impermeable liner covering a liquid-receiving basin features a first portion configured to be supported on the basin so as to engage an outer face of the liner which normally engages the basin and a second portion of the device configured to be movable relative to the first portion to selectively engage an inner face of the liner in opposite relation to the first portion in a working position. The inner face of the liner delimits the interior of the liner-covered basin. The first and second portions are configured to cooperatively form a generally tubular cavity substantially encompassing the gas delivery conduit in the working position, to clamp the gas delivery conduit over the discharge end of the gas discharge apparatus to substantially form a fluidic seal therebetween.

A foot spa includes a body and an electrolysis device. The body has a receiving space for containing water. The electrolysis device is mounted on a bottom of the body and includes a case, a control module and two electrolyte plates. The control module is mounted inside the body. The two electrolyte plates are mounted on a top portion of the case and are electrically connected to the control module. When the foot spa is operated, salt water is added to the receiving space for the two electrolyte plates to be soaked into the salt water in generation of an electrolytic reaction, such that sodium hydroxide and hypochlorous acid can be generated from the salt water to sterilize and deodorize the feet of users and provide the hygienic advantage.

An air pump for dispensing air massage therapy to a basin is provided. It may be used and with a disposal liner. The air pump includes a motor, an air generator, a mounting housing member, a gasket or seal, and an air nozzle. The air pump assembly includes the air pump and the air dispenser. The air pump preferably also includes a printed circuit board (PCB), a PCB cover, an LED light, an infrared light, and a contactless fluid sensor. The present invention is also directed to a pump apparatus that includes an air pump as described, a power source, and/or a control apparatus.

A device used for applying an antiseptic preparation, such as an antibiotic solution or water, or all other substance deemed necessary in treating a wound prior to arrival at a hospital or other treatment facility or for continuing wound therapy and maintenance while hospitalized, in an out-patient facility or at home. A loose-fitting bag is provided which encloses the wound by securing the open end(s) to the patient by closing means. The bag further includes ports or resealable flaps that allow access to the wound for treatment and cleaning while containing all fluids resulting therefrom. A high friction scrub surface is provided in the bag. A method and apparatus are also provided for wound maintenance with a lavage system.

A method of treating or preventing one or both of a bacterial infection or fungal infection of a foot of a subject includes combining a diluent and at least one of a clindamycin solution or an erythromycin solution to form a footbath solution. The method may further include topically administering the footbath solution to the subject. Administering may include contacting with the footbath solution a skin area of the foot of the subject that is infected or suspected to be infected.

Devices and method for warm gas therapy is provided. Device comprises a gas warmer assembly to warm a first gas to a temperature in a first temperature range to obtain warm first gas. The device comprises a first delivery unit that can deliver the warm first gas to a main treatment chamber which encloses a sub-treatment chamber to retain heat therein. A second delivery unit can receive a therapeutic gas from a gas supply. The second delivery unit comprises a first portion and a second portion. The first portion substantially passes through the first delivery unit and therapeutic gas in the first portion is warmed by the warm first gas. The second portion delivers the warm therapeutic gas to a sub-treatment chamber. The sub-treatment chamber encloses a body part of a patient.
