A method of electrically stimulating a target muscle of a patient includes placing at least one stimulation electrode in electrical contact with the target muscle and applying an electrical signal to the stimulation electrode. The method further includes obtaining a signal from a sensing element placed on the patient, wherein the sensing element is configured to detect at least one biological parameter of the patient associated with contraction of the target muscle caused by the application of the electrical signal, and adapting stimulation of the target muscle by the at least one stimulation electrode using the obtained signal.

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.

Embodiments of dermatological cell treatment are described generally herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

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 tissue location 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. The implantable stimulator is powered by a primary battery located within the implantable stimulator and having an internal impedance greater than 5 ohms.

A body physiotherapy machine contains a conductive sphere member and a body configured to output electric physiotherapy energy to the conductive sphere member. The conductive sphere member is held by a user to contact his/her discomfort or acupuncture points so as to comfort the user and to enhance metabolism by ways of the electric physiotherapy energy, thus maintaining health easily.

The present system combines, on a host server, clinician software for accessing a case history database of past results/feedback from users seeking stimulation therapy, other users within a member network and other users outside the member network and pharmacy software for generating, in the form of a database, an expert system/artificial intelligence program and signal processing software, stimulation waveforms required by the users according to prescriptions from clinicians (completed by clinical experts/server knowledge software) and/or pain points indicated by the users, wherein an innovative open terminal data format and file format and an innovative high-efficiency frequency band waveform compression technique are used. The present method and system embed innovative software tools into an innovative stimulation controller in a wired or wireless connection and a client device of an innovative skin carrier set related thereto so as to assist users in using imaging, sensing, augmented reality and software technology to identify stimulation points, and measure skin impedance, and provide other innovative tool solutions.

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.

A device for treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder is disclosed. The device combines the benefits of LED therapy with the stimulation and pain relieving qualities of a transcutaneous electrical nerve simulation (TENS) unit for the TMJ treatment. The device comprises an adjustable headband strap, to be worn by a user. The adjustable strap could consist of a shoulder extension, and face and head extensions, which offers a combined TENS and red LED contact points. The TENS connectors connect a remote TENS controller to the headband strap and the headband strap to the user's skin for the optimum stimulation. Further, the device comprises acupuncture points for skin rejuvenation. A temple strap formed integral to the headband strap consists of a TENS electrode and LED unit and for the adjustment of the headband.

An exemplary method treating an erectile dysfunction condition in a patient includes 1) generating, by an electroacupuncture device implanted beneath a skin surface of the patient, stimulation sessions at a duty cycle that is less than 0.05, and 2) applying, by the electroacupuncture device in accordance with the duty cycle, the stimulation sessions to a target tissue location within the patient by way of an electrode array located within the patient at an acupoint corresponding to the target tissue location.

The present invention discloses an ion pulse treatment apparatus for eye, which includes a carrier for carrying conductor elements to the eye acupoint regions; a power supply provided on the carrier and electrically connected to a control board; a high voltage generating element on the carrier and electrically connected to the control board; and two conductor elements carried by the carrier and used for treatment, wherein the two conductor elements are provided to contact with the surface skin of the eye acupoint regions, wherein one conductor element of the two conductor elements is electrically connected to a ground terminal of the high voltage generating element, and the other conductor element is electrically connected to a high voltage terminal of the high voltage generating element, wherein the negative ions(electrons) generated by the ion pulse treatment apparatus for eye of the present invention have the function of promoting microcirculation in the eye regions after entering the eye acupoint regions, so as to accelerate cell metabolism, effectively relieve eye fatigue, and promote eye health.
