Treatment apparatus using high frequency waves and method for controlling same
The present invention relates to a treatment apparatus using high frequency waves, and to a method for controlling same. The treatment apparatus using high frequency waves comprises: a high frequency wave generating unit; a plurality of needles for providing, into the skin of a user, high frequency energy transferred from the high frequency wave generating unit; and a driving unit for inserting the plurality of needles into the skin of the user, wherein the apparatus further comprises a control unit for controlling the driving unit such that the plurality of needles are inserted into a first target point within the skin and then move to a second target point.
TREATMENT DEVICES AND METHODS
Venous therapy methods and apparatus improve arterial or venous blood flow, for example in the legs. Venous therapy can reduce venous backflow and can improve arterial therapy such as that provided by intermittent pneumatic compression therapy.
Auricular peripheral nerve field stimulator and method of operating same
An auricular peripheral nerve field stimulator includes at least one therapy electrode configured for percutaneous insertion into an auricle of a human ear near at least one neurovascular bundle, and an electrical stimulation device electrically coupled to the at least one therapy electrode, the electrical stimulation device programmed to (i) generate and deliver electrical stimulation signals to the inserted at least one therapy electrode at a selected frequency for a selected duration to stimulate at least one auricular peripheral nerve field within the auricle, and (ii) repeat (i) with the stimulation signals having a modulated frequency.
REMOTE PAIN MANAGEMENT THROUGH ELECTRICAL STIMULATION OF MERIDIAN BODY LINES
Aspects of the invention include a computer-implemented method requiring loading, via a processor, a meridian tool into an electrical device having an input screen. The method causes, via the processor, the meridian tool to display a human body image on the input screen. The method receives, via the processor, input signals from the input screen to indicate pain points on the human body image and displays, via the processor, a pain level input display on the input screen. The method receives, via the processor, pain level input from the pain level input display screen and causes, via the processor, the electrical device to provide controlling electrical pulses to a meridian acupuncture sleeve, wherein the controlling electrical pulses controls the application of current being applied to electrical pads within the meridian acupuncture sleeve to provide pain relief for the pain points on the human body.
ELECTRICAL CURRENT STIMULATOR APPARATUS
A method to provide skin care treatment is provided. The method includes receiving, by an electrical stimulator apparatus, programmable instructions from an external device for a skin care treatment. The electrical stimulator apparatus delivers an electric current to an area of skin through a plurality of electrodes. The electric current is controlled based on the skin care treatment. The external device presents guidance corresponding with the skin care treatment. The guidance is configured to aid a user in operating the electrical stimulator apparatus.
Methods and Systems for Treating Cardiovascular Disease Using an Implantable Electroacupuncture Device
A method of treating cardiovascular disease in a patient includes generating, by an implantable stimulator configured to be implanted beneath a skin surface of the patient, stimulation sessions at a duty cycle that is less than 0.05 and applying, by the implantable stimulator in accordance with the duty cycle, the stimulation sessions to a location, within the patient, that is associated with the cardiovascular disease. The duty cycle is a ratio of T3 to T4. Each stimulation session included in the stimulation sessions has a duration of T3 minutes and occurs at a rate of once every T4 minutes.
ELECTRICAL CURRENT STIMULATOR APPARATUS
A method for providing electrical current treatment by an apparatus having a first electrode, a second electrode, and a processor is provided. The method includes delivering an electric current through an object in contact with the first electrode and the second electrode; controlling, by the processor, the electric current delivered by the first electrode and the second electrode to have a specific waveform; and providing a notification at a predetermined time to notify a user to move the apparatus.
DEVICES, SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AURICULAR ACUPUNCTURE
The present application relates to devices, systems and methods for auricular acupuncture. The devices suitably include an ear retention device that substantially contacts a patient's auricular surface, so as to allow sufficient energy from an optical or electric source to stimulate auricular acupuncture sites. The devices and systems are useful in various methods of treatment of patient conditions and presenting symptoms.
SPINE POSTURE CORRECTION DEVICE
A method, system, and apparatus for posture correction comprises a backplate, at least two pressure point knobs affixed to the backplate, and a strap operably connected to the backplate. Mounting slots are formed in the backplate with mounting bars bisecting the mounting slots, the mounting slots and mounting bars forming a strap mounting point through which the strap can be threaded, and at least two pressure point mounting slots are formed on the backplate, wherein each of the at least two pressure point knobs can be mounted to the backplate via the at least two pressure point mounting slots.
DEVICE FOR ACUPUNCTURE AND MOXIBUSTION THERAPY AND USES THEREOF
