A wearable acupressure device (WAD) is described that may include one or more pockets with one or more beads to apply pressure at various points on the body. The bead may be domed or marble shaped. The WAD may be worn on one or more portions of the body, including the arm, leg, head and foot. Also, the bead may be used for aromatherapy.

A clamp apparatus for clamping an article, the clamp apparatus includes a first finger and a second finger with a biased flexible connecting member wherein the bias urges the first and second fingers apart with structure to limit the bias, the connecting member is affixed to one end of each finger wherein a “V” shape is formed as between the first and second fingers and the connecting member. Also included in the clamp apparatus is a locking fastener for overcoming the connecting member urging via manually selectively bringing the first and second fingers together, plus a first extension with a first shoe disposed in the first finger and a second extension with second shoe disposed in the second finger, wherein operationally the first and second shoe portions act to clamp the article to the extent of the locking fastener.

A grip element having an elongate grip body with a first end region and a second end region. The grip body has a first surface near the second end region, with a curved subregion for supporting a subregion of the ball of the human hand, and an outwardly curved second surface supporting a subregion of the palm, and an inwardly curved third surface adjacent to the first surface and supporting the extended thumb, and an outwardly curved fourth surface lying substantially opposite the third surface and supporting the middle finger, adjacent to which fourth surface an outwardly curved fifth surface is provided for supporting the ring finger. The grip body has a sixth surface to support the index finger. The sixth surface, starting from a subregion of the second surface spaced apart from the second end region of the grip body, extends in the direction to the first end region and runs longitudinally along the grip body.

A reduced friction massage and exercise device, which includes a base frame and at least one anchoring arrangement for anchoring a first body part of a user. A reduced friction surface is mounted onto the base frame, and includes a plurality of ball transfer units arranged such that adjacent ball transfer units engage one another. The device further includes at least one cable column including a weight stack. Each of the motion transfer balls is adapted for omnidirectional rotation relative to a corresponding housing element and independently of other the motion transfer balls. The reduced friction surface is adapted to have a second body part of the user placed thereon during performing of a physical activity applying force to the second body part, while reducing friction between the second body part and the surface.

An apparatus for pelvic floor muscle trigger point therapy is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a wand to facilitate the release of one or more trigger points in a pelvic floor muscle of a patient. The wand comprises a central portion extending between a first end and a second end. The central portion includes a first bend and a second bend wherein the first bend is formed between a first end region and a first central region. The second bend is formed between the first central region and a second central region. The first end is configured to be vaginally insertable while the second end configured to be rectally insertable. A power source in electrical communication with one or more switches to selectively control a vibration element during use.

A liver cancer metastasis therapeutic device, consisting of a base plate, a prone support, an abdominal medicine massager, a chain wheel, a rotating wheel and a handheld massager, and being used in a treatment for restoring functions of a whole body; and the therapeutic device is focused on restoring the functions of the whole human body and complementarily performs chemoradiotherapy and surgery for killing cancer cells to treat causes of death, thus significantly reducing a death rate of patients due to metastasis of liver cancers and digestive organ cancers.
