Method for causing relaxation of a muscle and a system for assisting a person in executing the same method
11207238 · 2021-12-28 · ·

A method causes relaxation of a muscle of a body of a person or an animal. In a period in which a patient moves his or her body in a reciprocating manner to expand and contract the muscle, the patient or another person presses an arbitrary spot on the skin of the patient toward the muscle using a fingertip, for example. The pressing by the fingertip is controlled so that the area of the pressed spot on the skin falls within a range of 2 cm.sup.2 to 0.1 cm.sup.2 and the pressing force applied to the pressed spot falls within a range of 1 kgf to 100 gf.

System and method for generating pressure point maps based on remote-controlled haptic-interactions
11197799 · 2021-12-14 · ·

System and method for providing remotely guided physical treatment are disclosed. A computing device is communicably coupled to a therapeutic robot and a remote guidance device. The computing device receives full-body images of a treatment subject. The computing device generates a plurality of key physical points for the treatment subject by identifying a three-dimensional human body template that corresponds to the shape and posture parameters of the treatment subject and fitting the identified first three-dimensional human body template to the full-body images of the treatment subject. The fitting causes adjustments to locations of the corresponding set of key physical points of the first three-dimensional human body template. The adjusted locations of the corresponding set of key physical points of the first three-dimensional human body template are provided to the guidance device as basis for a treatment procedure that is specified by the treatment guidance provider during the physical treatment session.

Methods for delivering pulsed electric current to living tissue
11198000 · 2021-12-14 · ·

A patient treatment unit for delivering non-invasive pulsed energy to living tissue with a probe stimulus generator circuit configured to output, as a treatment signal, a sequence of DC electrical pulses at a controlled pulse frequency of about 20 kHz and having a pulse voltage defined by a variable supply voltage of the probe stimulus generator circuit. The unit includes primary and secondary probes for contacting a body, an intensity adjustment circuit configured to control the variable supply voltage, and an electronic timer display configured to display an elapsed time in decimal numbers in minute and second format. An electrical current of the pulses is in a range of 0.1-2 mA while the probes are contacting the body. An operating output voltage across the probes while conducting the treatment signal does not exceed a maximum operating output voltage of 165 VDC while the probes are contacting the body.
