Disclosed embodiments provide a pressure field stimulation device having an arm adaptable in shape. Embodiments of the improved stimulation device include a cup, a driver, and an arm. The arm is flexible in such a way that it holds its position when bent. The adaptable arm may be a handle, a member insertable into the vagina or rectum, or a connection member between the pressure field stimulator and another stimulator. In use, a user positions a rim of the cup such that an opening to the cavity is over an area to be stimulated (e.g., the clitoris). A sealed-, or substantially-sealed, chamber is formed by the cavity walls and the user's skin (surrounding the clitoris). A pressure field is generated in the chamber, providing sexual stimulation to the clitoris. The user can adjust the placement of the cup by bending the arm.

A brace for retaining an organ in an expanded state configured to adhere and substantially conform to an external surface of the organ includes an inner layer, an outer layer, and at least one sheet of thin malleable material forming a middle layer between the inner layer and outer layer, the at least one sheet being enclosed and configured to rigidify and maintain the organ in an expanded state upon application of a vacuum. The brace can be incorporated into a brassiere.

A manual ear pump including one or more of a support element configured to releasably engage an external ear canal and having an interior chamber, a resilient element capable of being resiliently deformed coupled to a support element, and an aperture disposed on a support element bottom surface communicating with the external ear canal and interior chamber.

Method for assessing and preferably ameliorating the symptoms of a medical condition, optionally lymphedema, comprising obtaining a preferably both electrically powered and portable treatment apparatus capable of contacting, via a treatment head, a target area on the skin of a patient and introducing low-pressure suction thereto, wherein the apparatus, preferably the treatment head thereof, contains at least one sensor element to measure at least one physiological characteristic regarding the tissue underlying the target area of the patient, preferably indicative of fluid content thereof, and applying the treatment apparatus to the patient to measure said at least one physiological characteristic. A treatment apparatus for executing the method is presented.

A device for maintaining or achieving soft tissue expansion applicable to any body region already temporarily expanded including: an adhesive element deformable and capable of adapting to the shape of this body region, and which can then itself become mechanically rigid enough to resist tendency of the expanded tissue to recoil or to which a second material can be applied to form a stent adapted to the shape of the body area to provide the necessary structural rigidity to prevent recoil of the expansion and thereby induce its retention of its expanded shape after the stent is removed.

Systems and methods described herein relate to a cup attachment for an electric percussive massager. The cup attachment may be configured for use in performing cupping therapy on a recipient using the massager. The cup attachment may include a cup region and an inner frame. The cup attachment may be made out of a flexible material. The inner frame may be made out of a rigid material. The cup attachment may include a ring portion which may deliver a direct-force cupping therapy when applied to a recipient. The cup attachment may also include a cavity which may deliver an indirect-force, air-pressure-based, cupping therapy when applied to a recipient.

A negative pressure massage apparatus for men and a massage structure thereof are provided. The massage structure includes a cup and a mounting ring. The cup includes a cavity. An opening end and a sealed end are formed at two ends of the cup respectively. The opening end includes a cup edge formed thereon, and the sealed end includes a connecting hole communicating to the cavity. The mounting ring includes a ring member and a receiving seat extended from the ring member. The ring member is mounted on the cup edge, and the receiving seat is inserted in the cavity. Accordingly, massage for the male reproductive organ may be provided in conjunction with acupuncture point massage for its surrounding area at the same time.
