Hip traction device, system, and methods
A hip traction device, system, and associated methods are disclosed. Such a device may include a base having a proximal end and a distal end, a guide coupled to the base, a carrier configured to move along the guide upon receiving a force from a tensioner to move the carrier toward the distal end of the base, causing a leg to be put in tension, and a single body coupling mechanism either removably attachable or permanently attached to the carrier and configured to securely attach to a lower portion of a leg, such that the portion of the leg moves with the carrier during operation of the tensioner.
Cervical-curvature autocorrect apparatus and methods incorporating the apparatus
An apparatus for manipulating (in one alternative correcting) the cervical curvature of a user, the apparatus having a top, a bottom, a first end, a second end, a first side and a second side, wherein: proximate the top, a thoracic section for receiving the upper back region of a user, preferably for receiving the thoracic region of the user; proximate the top, a cervical section for receiving the cervical curve region of the user; the cervical section is movable with a traction path in at least one of the following planes vertical, horizontal and combinations thereof; in one alternative, the cervical section is movable in an arc-like motion along the vertical plane.
Rehabilitation device for the vestibular ocular system and other neurocognitive functions
A medical rehabilitation device for clinically rehabilitating individuals suffering from medical conditions affecting the vestibular ocular system, and other neurocognitive functions. The rehabilitation device includes a support base having an elongate slot, and a plurality of arms adjustably attached to the support base via the elongated slot, where each arm includes a magnetic strip for selectively positioning visual targets thereon to solicit patient recognition of colors and positions of the visual targets during both vestibular ocular reflex, and other neurocognitive exercises. Each arm and the support base includes measurement markings extending along the top longitudinal surface of each arm adjacent the magnetic strips and along the elongate slot, respectively, to provide measured and objective charted indicators for vestibular ocular reflex and other neurocognitive functions over time. The arms are adjustable in horizontal, vertical, and diagonal positions to selectively adjust the difficulty of the exercises in a plane of vision.
SCRATCH PANEL
The scratch panel is a wall-mounting panel to relieve itching in particularly difficult to reach locations, such as the back. It utilizes artificial turf and sand paper like textured surfaces upon which the body may be scratched. Since the panel is wall-mounted, no hands are necessary to relieve bothersome itches. The panel holds adjustable rollers that stretch the artificial turf and allow recycling of the surface. The adjustable rollers allow the user to use different parts of the turf and replace said turf when necessary. The disclosed device includes a scrollable abrasive material stretched across a first scroll and a second scroll wherein the scrolls each lock to fix the scrollable abrasive material in a fixed relation thereto. A holder receives the scrolls in a rotating relation and provides a grip for a user and defines mounting holes to a wall or a piece of furniture.
FITNESS, EXERCISE AND MASSAGE ROLLER
The invention relates to a fitness, exercise and massage roller, which roller (10) has a substantially cylindrical shape and a hollow opening (13) around its imaginary center axis, which roller (10) comprises two or more frame parts (11,12), which are at least part-circular in their outer form and configured to form the cylindrical shape of the roller (10). At least one of the frame elements (11, 12) is separable or turnable from connection with the other frame elements (11, 12) such, that a longitudinal opening is formed and that the roller (10) is configured to be located around a bar (51) or like via the longitudinal opening. The roller (10) comprises adjusting rotation elements (15) located in the hollow opening (13) and configured to provide rotatable and adjustable fastening of the roller (10) around the bar (51) or like and the adjusting rotation elements (15) are configured to adjust or self/auto-adjust cross-sectional inner dimensions of the hollow opening (13) to correspond to cross-sectional outer dimensions of the bar (51).
MUTUAL STIMULATION DEVICE
A method of providing sexual stimulation between first and second penises includes the steps of providing a body including first and second openings on a front face, wherein first and second channels extend into the body from the first and second openings, respectively, along first and second longitudinal axes, respectively, that tend toward each other within the body, wherein the first and second channels partially merge to form a chamber; inserting a first penis and a second penis into each of the first and second openings, respectively, such that the penises contact each other within the chamber of the body; and inserting the penises further into the chamber such that the penises move along the respective longitudinal axes and contact the inside surface of the chamber such that an underside of each penis is in contact with the other.
SHOWER
A shower assembly includes an inlet port, a reservoir, and a plurality of drop outlet ports. The inlet port is configured to receive a flow of water from a water source. The reservoir is configured to receive the flow of water from the inlet port. Each drop outlet port of the plurality of drop outlet ports includes an inlet, an outlet, and a bore extending therebetween. The shower assembly is configured such that, even when the reservoir receives the flow of water at a maximum inlet flow rate, the drop outlet ports only produce discrete water drops. A first plurality of the drop outlet ports is configured to produce only discrete water drops having a first size and a second plurality of the drop outlet ports is configured to produce only discrete water drops having a second size that is greater than the first size.
PERSONAL CARE DEVICE WITH CONVERTIBLE HANDLE AND TREATEMENT HEAD
A therapeutic device for massaging, cleansing, or delivering of liquid substances has a variably configurable handle that is adapted to function with a plurality of head attachments. The handles may be swiveled relative to each other at various angled positions, or they may be detached to function as two, separate devices.
Hip traction device, system, and methods
A hip traction device, system, and associated methods are disclosed. Such a device may include a base having a proximal end and a distal end, a guide coupled to the base, a carrier configured to move along the guide upon receiving a force from a tensioner to move the carrier toward the distal end of the base, causing a leg to be put in tension, and a single body coupling mechanism either removably attachable or permanently attached to the carrier and configured to securely attach to a lower portion of a leg, such that the portion of the leg moves with the carrier during operation of the tensioner.
Portable multi-functional upright body stretching apparatus
An apparatus for stretching comprises a body holder for connecting to a support device. The body holder includes a body support panel for receiving an upper portion of a torso of a user, a left arm holder for receiving a left arm, and a right arm holder for receiving a right arm, and a body holder closing device. The left arm holder and the right arm holder are pivotally connected to the body support panel. The body support panel can have a curved surface to approximate a part of the torso. The left arm holder can have a flat or curved surface to approximate a left side of the torso and at least a portion of left arm. The right arm holder can have a flat or curved surface to approximate at least a right side of the torso and at least a portion of right arm.
