Inhibiting viral infection using alternating electric fields

Viral infections in a target region can be inhibited by imposing an alternating electric field in the target region for a duration of time. The alternating electric field has a frequency and a field strength such that when the alternating electric field is imposed in the target region for the duration of time, the alternating electric field inhibits infection of the cells in the target region by the virus. Optionally, the inhibition of viral infections using the alternating electric field approach can be combined with delivering an antiviral agent to the target region so that a therapeutically effective dose of the antiviral agent is present in the target region while the alternating electric fields are imposed.

Rejuvenating Beauty Care Tool for Skin and Body
20220354732 · 2022-11-10 ·

A rejuvenating beauty care tool for skin and body is an apparatus that enables the user to treat different skin and body areas using different therapeutic and cosmetic techniques. The apparatus may include a handle, a first arm, a second arm, a plurality of first rollers, and a plurality of second rollers. The handle enables the user to comfortably operate the apparatus using only one hand. The handle also supports the first arm and the second arm when the first arm and the second arm are pressed against the user's body. The first arm presses the plurality of first rollers against a first target body area. Likewise, the second arm presses the plurality of second rollers against a second target body area. Further, both the plurality of first rollers and the plurality of second rollers enable the application of the desired cosmetic or therapeutic treatment onto the target body areas.
