Provided is a biometric signal measurement device for a massage apparatus, in which an electrode for acquiring a biometric signal of a user acquires the biometric signal while vertically moving in contact with a plantar part of the user, and at the same time, massages the plantar part, thereby improving a massage effect. The biometric signal measurement device for a massage apparatus includes a base part on which a foot of a user is placed, an electrode part that is made of a conductive material, is installed in the base part to be vertically movable, and acquires a biometric signal while in contact with a sole of the user placed on the base part, an electrode driving part that vertically moves the electrode part, and a controller that is electrically connected to the electrode part and analyzes biometric information of the user through the biometric signal acquired by the electrode part.

A suction assembly is described. The suction assembly includes a therapy unit with a body that can apply a supplemental therapy to a skin surface. The suction assembly also includes a cup that can be removably connected to the therapy unit and that can interface with a skin surface to define a chamber within the cup. A pump of the therapy unit can reduce a pressure within the chamber to draw the skin surface into the chamber in a cupping therapy. In response to the skin surface being drawn into the chamber, the body can move in a longitudinal direction to maintain contact with the skin surface. A wall of the cup is translucent and the suction assembly is dimensioned to provide a user with a view into the chamber through the wall of the cup that is substantially unobstructed by the housing.

A health care device includes a health care body for positioning a body part of a user, so as to maintain a first specific positional relationship with the body part, wherein the body part has an acupoint; an acupoint work piece for performing a health care work onto the use through the acupoint; and a work piece holder having a first end connected to the health care body and a second end for fixing the acupoint work piece, so that under the first specific positional relationship, the acupoint work piece performs the health care work under the condition that the acupoint work piece has a second specific positional relationship with the acupoint. A health care body, method and system are also provided.

Proposed is a medical needle which performs treatment by stimulating acupuncture point of a human body, the medical needle including an electrical stimulation output module which generates a first signal which is an electromagnetic wave, an optical stimulation output module which generates a second signal which is a laser, and a probe needle which is inserted into a skin tissue of a human body to stimulate acupuncture point of the human body and receives the first signal generated from the electrical stimulation output module and the second signal generated from the optical stimulation output module so as to provide the first signal and the second signal to the skin tissue.

A hearing training device, is provided, including: a wearable device configured for being worn on the head of a user; a playing device arranged on the wearable device; an acupoint stimulation device, served as a physiotherapy device, comprising a plurality of acupoint stimulation mediums arranged on the wearable device, respectively configured for stimulating a plurality of acupoints on the head of the user and related to hearing, and arranged at the positions of the wearable device corresponding to the acupoints respectively; and a control device being in signal connection with the playing device and storing at least one music file, wherein the control device controls the playing device to play the music file, a beat is formed in an audio track of the music file, and the beat decreases with time, and is fixed until the beat is between 10 Hz and 15 Hz.

An auricular peripheral nerve field stimulator may include at least one therapy electrode configured for percutaneous insertion into an auricle of a human ear near at least one neurovascular bundle located therein, and an electrical stimulation device electrically coupled to the electrical stimulation device, the electrical stimulation device programmed to generate and deliver electrical stimulation signals, with defined stimulation parameters, to the at least one therapy electrode to stimulate, with the at least one therapy electrode percutaneously inserted, at least one auricular peripheral nerve field within the auricle, the defined stimulation parameters including a defined pulse frequency and at least one of a defined pulse width and a defined duty cycle.

The invention is a method consisting of stimulation of specific new acupuncture points to prevent, treat and heal specific types of neoplastic process in dogs and cats. The specific acupuncture points used in the method of the invention have not been previously disclosed for the treatment of neoplastic processes. The treatments can be carried out by accredited practitioners in a clinical setting or by a layperson. The stimulation can be provided by any of the known techniques used for stimulation of controlling points, including, but not limited to, traditional acupuncture needles, auto-injector needles, electric acupuncture, acupressure, lasers, acupuncture lasers, UV radiation, infra-red radiation, heat, magnets, moxibustion, and a combination of two or more of these techniques, for example, the use of both needles and laser acupuncture simultaneously in a single treatment session.

An implantable electroacupuncture device (IEAD) treats an erectile dysfunction condition of a patient through application of stimulation pulses applied at a target tissue location underlying, or in the vicinity of, at least one of acupoints BL52, BL23 or GV4. The IEAD includes an IEAD housing having an electrode configuration thereon that includes at least two electrodes, and pulse generation circuitry located within the IEAD housing and electrically coupled to the at least two electrodes. The pulse generation circuitry is adapted to deliver EA stimulation pulses to the patient's body tissue at or near the target tissue location in accordance with a specified stimulation regimen, the stimulation regimen requiring that the stimulation session have a duration of T3 minutes and a rate of occurrence of once every T4 minutes, and wherein a ratio of T3/T4 is no greater than 0.05.
